Squeaky irritation
Property was ok for our 2 night weekend away. The wooden floors are squeaky and irritating esp when you are sleeping and someone takes a bathroom break. Bicycles were not ready to ride as they never seemed to have been ridden in years with flat tyres. The kayak was there with no instructions to transport to the lakes etc. It took all evening to cool down as the single AC was struggling on 35plus degree heat. No TV, No wifi. Bit ordinary for what we paid for. Not highly recommended.

Wonderful holiday!
We loved our stay in Smiths Lake. The property was just as described. We loved that we could bring our dogs with us too, who were happily set up on the secure covered front deck. The home was lovely. We particularly appreciated having 2 nice bathrooms, the air conditioning during the afternoons (we were lucky to have great weather so it was warm) and being walking distance to the lake (for walks with our dogs) and the shops and bowling club and a short drive to many beautiful beaches. The supplied kayak, boogie boards and golf clubs were also great and we really enjoyed using these (and not having to bring them). Thank you for a great stay, Greg!
