Great amenities in the community, cottage was well stocked with dishes, appliances and such. Areas of improvement could be more comfortable seating, as the couches were small and not very comfortable. Also the outdoor chairs were not at all comfortable as the cushions were very thin. Often you had to use extra pillows to sit in them. Lastly having bath towels supplied would have been helpful.

Hi Scott, Thank you for your input. It is unfortunate you found the couches small as one was just replaced this season. This also goes for all the patio cushions as they are all new this season. Eventhough you are the first to make this observation, I will have this noted and adjust accordingly. As for the towels, we make every effort in the listing and Welcome Letter sent before check in to ensure this is known before check-in. We don't supply them purposely, but guests do have the use of the washer and dryer machines at anytime and at no cost. We hope to be able to host you in the near future. Calvin

Cute Little house

Everything was great, we loved the site and the services. The house was very clean and we loved the veranda. But 2 things to say : the AC was really noisy, so we had to close it during the night. Second, some hooks were missing to dry our towels.

Clean

Comfy beds, clean and modern.Loved the screened in porch. Would like to have known that it was not lake front and we needed to drive to the lake and pool. We could not see the sunset from the porch (as was advertised). This property is on East Lake Resort, closer to the main pavilion. Excellent location for families with small kids.

The cottage itself was clean and well stocked. The outdoor property needs some TLC. The weeds just took over the gardens. The BBQ was an absolute disgrace. No one ever cleaned it and the grates didn't even fit the BBQ.

Fall Wine getaway!

The cottage was great. Well stocked for appliances and kitchen tools. Beds were very comfortable and slept like a baby! Took a while to figure out the TV as we had to search for the welcome book with the password for the cable. The couches are not very comfortable. The resort was great, very quiet and only a few families in the park. Would be great in the summer. Everyone was very friendly. Short drive to wineries, artists and cute shops. Really enjoyed our stay!

The villa community was great ! Love the family feel to it. It had great amenities for all of us to enjoy. I thought the cottage we rented lacked in charm and cleanliness especially on the outside. There were also a few issues inside as well. A bit on the smaller side for my family of 5. I should have done my research better.

Very clean and organized. Bright and cheery. But we had trouble with the TV(should be written instructions to help). Also the pullout couch is very uncomfortable for an adult to sleep on. Next time we will have to find a unit with more bedrooms. But we did love the place@

Quaint cottage with lovely screened porch

This property had everything we needed except a proper sized « pull out » sofa. My brother and Dad joined us for one night and my 6 ft tall brother had to sleep in a sleeping bag on the floor. Otherwise, the bunk and queen size beds were comfy. Omissions included a dishwasher soap, a dish towel and a couple of hand towels! It was difficult to dry dishes with a J cloth!

Prior to our stay, the communications were excellent. When I wrote with questions, the owner answered quickly. We received very complete and clear information concerning our stay before our arrival. The check in was very smooth and easy. The cottage was clean, cozy, very cute and contained all the basics needed, except the dishwasher soap that was supposed to be included in the welcome package. We appreciated the amenities of the resort, pool, games for kids and free location of canoe and kayak.My only negative comment would be that the BBQ was unusable. It contained at least 50 live insects in it, the grills were dirty and the BBQ brush had nos bristles left so we couldn’t clean it properly. We had to resign ourselves to cook on the stove.Other than that, we would definitely recommend.

Cute Cottage with All Amenities

We had a wonderful stay in this clean and updated cottage. The property had many amenities to keep us busy when we weren't exploring the wineries/breweries near by. Loved bringing our puppy on her first vacation. Screened in porch is the perfect place to enjoy your wine from the vineyards without bugs or rain!
