The Bad: We noticed very early that the kitchen was lacking in good cookware. There was one small skillet that was (in my opinion) too small for a house that sleeps so many. The one baking sheet was crusty and should be thrown out. We bought our own cookware at Wal-Mart to use. One of the queen beds was very loud and creaky. Upon further inspection, we noticed that the wood frame was broken. I emailed our customer contact with Evolve, but got no response. Later that afternoon, we called the customer contact and found that Evolve had given us an incorrect email address for the contact, so the email was never received. He was excellent to work with and bought a new bed frame and mattress and had the old bed replaced before end of day. We also brought to the contact's attention low water pressure in the house. Maintenance workers came the next day to address the problem. We were, however, without water at the house for a day, which was inconvenient. The bunkbeds are also very loud and squeaky. The gas grill is falling apart.
The Good: The house was clean and smelled fresh. It is decorated nicely. Plenty of deck room to spread out and enjoy the views. Fishing and swimming off the dock is fun. Ducks in the lake will eat out of your hand. Quiet neighborhood. Shopping and good restaurants are nearby. Boat, jetski, and other rentals can be found on the lake nearby. Some of our most relaxing moments were sitting on the dock in the late evenings watching the sun go down.
