“Family Get Away”

Response from the owner Thank you for positive comments regarding the home. I am confused about the pool and lake access though. The lake access is just that; to load the kayaks, canoe, row boat or paddle boat in the lake from the dock. It is weedy around the lake(makes for great fishing) and the reason for installing the pool. I advertise on all my sites, including this one, as the pool being unheated. We installed the pool this spring and completed everything before rental season started except finishing the installation of the heater, thus advertising it as unheated. Yes, there is a propane tank and heater on premises but not hooked up and approved by the town. As time and funds permit this fall, we hope to complete this but until then, I will continue to advertise as unheated. During mid June to August, the pool temperature averaged 80 degrees. It varied 2-3 degrees depending on consecutive days of rain or sun. We have a solar cover also to help minimize the fluctuations. The pool temperatures during May, early June and probably Sept will range in the 70s. We intend to open the pool each year around mid May and close around mid September totally dependent on the weather. I sincerely hope this clears up any confusion at all about the pool for future guests. Appreciatively Yours, Shawn Skeele

Response from the owner Dear Nicole, We are happy to hear your group enjoyed themselves and your perspective regarding the home and property. My family is obviously is into board games old and new. I use them partially as a teaching tool in homeschooling the kids. Monopoly is a good one for accounting, money management and taking calculating risks. I would say Catan is our favorite. Thank you for taking such good care of the home and we would certainly welcome you back anytime. I'm sorry to not have met you personally having a family matter taking precedent. Chrissy said I had nothing to worry about and very much enjoyed meeting you. :) Appreciatively Yours, Shawn
