*CLEANING FEE DISCLAIMER: We are disenchanted that we have a pass-through cleaning fee so high these days but, this is our new reality. We understand that when this fee is split by the large groups that is nominal per-person but we want you to know our hearts are that we wish it wasn't so high regardless of that. It is a very large property to turn over in such a short amount of time & weekend help is extremely hard to find. We only have 1780 people that live here so we have to be the highest paid to retain the best & they are AWESOME! Conversely, we are pleased to remind you that we have so much included w/ this property (ask us for our items stocked list. Seriously, we provide SO much) You don't need to bring trash bags or paper goods. We stock enough for your entire stay, not just a starter amount. Bathroom & facial tissues, paper towels, trash bags, napkins, salt & pepper shakers, DW detergent, laundry detergent, aluminum foil, zip lock bags, plastic Saran-type wrap, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, bar soap, Q-tips, cotton balls, hand soap, kitchen sponges, first aid kits, & Dawn dish soap. We have hospitality boxes w/ all sorts of things guests may forget. Our guests have told us in reviews that all they need to bring is food & clothes. One last thing on cleaning: If you are going to check out on a weekday, please inquire if there will be a break in this fee. There is no way for us to separate it out so we would be happy to address on a case by case if you initiate. Thanks for considering booking this AMAZING property.
Humbly,
Dave, Ann and our AMAZING Team

The host had so much information about the property and was very responsive. We had very little issues planning a family reunion for 40 people. The property was clean, beautiful and had plenty of options available for the entire family.

We had our wedding here and I can’t fit all of the positive things I want to say here! The property was clean, well stocked, well labeled, organized, and just gorgeous. So many activities, so many peaceful nights, all with great views. We worked primarily with Destinie and she made our wedding the wedding of our dreams. Always available for communication, clarifying, and checking in. Could not ask for a better weekend for my now husband and I! Already planning our next trip back!
