Summary: We expected a lake that we could swim in and kayak from, as that's how it was advertised. It was extremely disappointing. The water was a swampy bog. My husband spent a lot of time just shoveling out the muck, so there was a spot to step in just to get into our kayaks. The dock was unsafe; it was not secure, plus there were rotting boards. The railings leading down from the driveway to the house, were inadequate, and completely unstable, and unsafe. The charcoal grill was not usable in my opinion. I didn't expect to rent a house on the water, and have to drive 30 minutes to find a place to swim and kayak. This house was certainly not worth the money we paid!!
