Summary: The positives first: The lake, firepit, hot tub, and landscaping were excellent. We spent the majority of our time outdoors and therefore had a great trip overall. Unfortunately the negatives: Our bedsheets were very obviously used and not washed. When we went downstairs to grab new bedding, all sheets were musty and located on an open shelf next to the moldy water system. There was a concerning amount of mold - I understand this is a lakehouse, but I would expect some level of dehumidification to combat the moisture. When I attempted to start a load of laundry, there was a rancid pile of wet sheets and blankets left in the dryer for what must have been days. I had to clean the dryer and wash every piece of bedding in the house for peace of mind late at night before we could sleep. The UV filtration system lamp was burnt out and was beeping incessantly until we had to unplug it. Cutlery, glasses, countertops in the kitchen were used and not clean. There was old cheese left on the cheese grater and lip marks on the wine glasses. Dog fur throughout the house and embedded within the couches. Bags of dog poo were left outside the sliding glass doors on the ground. The trash cans are no more than bags with plastic lids, allowing garbage smell throughout the kitchen. It's unfortunate that the cleaner either did not do their job, or was not on site at all. Andrew was very nice and responsive, however it was evident that this property is not being maintained properly.
