Summary: Spent a week here with our daughters, their husbands & our 18month old granddaughter. Ample family space, bedrooms/bathrooms. Rice Lake is a small, quiet lake-mostly pontoons & kayakers. Home was well equipped for the week with plenty of paper products, cleaning supplies, toiletries & laundry supplies. Plenty of bath and beach towels too. The kayaks/paddle boat were in good condition. Lots of games/puzzles & rafts & beach toys & yard games. The yard is small-only the front yard is useable as the back is small & slopes pretty sharply to the water. The deck is ample with lots of chairs & gas grill. The deck, as with most aging decks, requires shoes. There is no beach at this location, tho a nice small one is just a short drive. The firepit was a bit disappointing and the bugs this time of year made it unusable The house is stocked with spices & a few pantry staples. That said, the refrigerator had a large number of presumably left-over condiments from previous renters & took up too much space & most were expired. Thankfully there was another fridge on the lower lever.Joe seems to be a conscientious owner. We experienced a water alarm in the middle of the 2nd night & Joe was on his way (from the Chicago suburbs) the next morning.While it seems that everything is well maintained, the ample cob webs, plethora of bugs/spiders & our dirty sox at the end of the day gave us a reason to doubt the overall cleanliness. With a toddler, this was especially concerning.
