Default X-10 is good, but...

...Insteon is better. I've been using X-10 at home and at the lake for at least 15, maybe 20 years now and over that time have encountered all the quirks that can sometimes come with it. Insteon is supposed to provide a much more robust interface because it's two-way and uses a different protocol. It costs more, but may be worth it though I haven't tried it yes since I'm so invested in X-10. If you go with X-10, it's good to stick with the Leviton-branded components since they seem to be more reliable.
