Unexpected issues
The location of this property is great, close to the lake, but not on it. Beautiful views of deer in the yard and neighborhood. There were a few things that we had to contact the owner about. One burner on the cooktop stove did not work; owner was aware, but was not communicated to us. My husband had to replace a filter, plastic seat covers at the dining table were all torn , the outside grill was weathered, rusted and pieces coming off of it. We were not told of any of these problems. We have stayed in this area in other rentals before, but this rental was not up to our expectations.

Cape Royale’s Little Lake House
Beautiful, clean home that was just about a 1/4 mile walk from a park where we were able to go fishing. On two of the mornings, there were deer on the front lawn. We enjoyed walking through the wooded trails and walking through the marina. You could tell the owners took a lot of pride in their home. They communicated very well and made it a point to make sure we were going to enjoy our stay. We did!

Beautiful home
This home is absolutely beautiful in a quiet neighborhood. We saw deer in morning when on porch with coffee. Pictures do not do this place justice but the rental process was quite lengthy and cumbersome.

Relaxing and fun
We took a group of young teenagers and they had a blast. The park was perfect for swimming and volleyball. Marina was close to be able to launch the jet skis. Very quiet neighborhood. We also saw a family of deer several time. We are looking forward to staying again.
