Beautiful Home, Strict Hosts
I don’t usually leave reviews, but I felt this one was warranted. We rented this property for two nights to celebrate my daughter’s 18th birthday. While the home and location were lovely, the experience was overshadowed by how rigid and overbearing the hosts were.Even before our stay, communication felt more like a rulebook than a warm welcome. There was pushback about bringing one of our dogs—despite the listing being advertised as “dog-friendly.” When I asked about their pet fees, I was told this wasn’t a “dog boarding facility.” That set the tone.Then came a flood of emails detailing an exhaustive list of do’s and don’ts:You’ll be monitored on camera at check-in to ensure you only bring one dog.Always wear a life jacket on the dock and while using the rope swing.Don’t touch the owner’s boat.Be cautious with the fire pit—never leave it unattended.Use the grill only on the concrete and don’t dump ashes in the trash.Break a paddleboard paddle? That’s on you.The lake is not a swimming pool.Early check-in or late check-out? That’s 25 per hour.Oh, and since no one’s staying after you, we’ll offer 50% off if you want to extend your stay.And finally: “Have a fun and relaxing time!”Are you kidding me?I spent the entire weekend feeling on edge, afraid of accidentally breaking a rule. It’s a shame, because the property had so much potential to be a great, relaxing getaway. Unfortunately, the hosts’ overly strict and watchful approach made that impossible.
