Just let us know which bed you will be using with them, and we'll make sure it is ready for your sheets when you arrive. Plus, if the pet hair starts to build, we do ask that you please run the vacuum. Generally, dogs love the water and places to explore. Pet food does tend to attract mice, so vigilance is needed.

Family Time
My family and I enjoyed Freshwater Vacation Rentals home and service. Their beautiful home on Little Lake was very peaceful and had enough water toys and games for my whole family to enjoy. My babies loved fishing on the lake. I love the VCR tv upstairs for the children. Something my techs needed a glimpse of. Plenty of toys and space. We loved how we could cook dinner, eat, and play a game or watch TV all together at the same time. They had wall art that said choose life and this home sure help you focus on just that. So does the service makes it easier.

Bridal Weekend stay
We rented this cabin for the weekend and at check in time we got there and the entire place had not yet been cleaned from previous people who had stayed. Check in was at 4pm, we weren’t able to utilize it until 9pm that night due to the cleaners coming so late. Beautiful place to stay. Will not be renting from this “company” again… This was my bridal party staying here from out of town as well. Big Inconvenience. Especially when we had been in contact with the company people all day long and they had told me that the cleaners would be out by four and that we were not able to have an earlier check-in due to it needing to be cleaned.

Beautiful home with a view.
Beautiful home with all the amenities. Plenty of room for our family to celebrate Thanksgiving. The house had everything we needed for a wonderful stay. Kitchen stocked with utensils, pots and everything necessary, we played games and enjoyed a warm fire. Would love to come again in the summer time and enjoy the water.

Beautiful stay but hot water took forever to get warm. Hot water tank set for warm when we arrived so turning to Hot took awhile. Suggest adding recirculating pump to hot water loop.

Rodents- Avoid this House
Overall, the house was averagely maintained with a few exceptions: The bedroom plugs did not work unless the lights were on which made our entire stay inconvenient. There were dead mice in a live trap located on the roof right outside the broken bathroom window. They began to stink in the heat which was absolutely disgusting. The shower becomes extremely slippery when wet, and without a mat became dangerous for our elderly family members. Trash cans were full upon arrival. Dirty laundry was left in bedrooms and the basement.

Memorial Day Farmer Lake Lodge
Cabin was cozy and cute. View was incredible at sunset but so were the mosquitoes. Kitchen was well stocked for large crew of 11. However we did run out of paper towels and toilet paper. Another sitting area screened-in or another area to gather and visit would make this cabin UP perfect! Thank you for sharing it with us.
