Great Family Getaway

Our family had a wonderful, relaxing time! The house is great and has lots of games for the kids and family. We had dinner at a nearby bar/restaurant (Drafts Bar & Grill). Very good food and atmosphere.If you are a golfer, it's perfect because it's right on the 9th tee of a 9 hole golf course.Very peaceful and relaxing.

Great house!

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful vacation home! It was clean, nicely furnished, spacious, and the kitchen was well equipped. The house was a great size for our family of 11 with plenty of comfortable bedrooms and bathrooms. Also had large spaces for us to spend time together, both inside and out on the deck and front porch. We enjoyed the lake and pool, just a short drive away. Communication with the owner was prompt, friendly, and helpful. Would love to return!

Great house!

We had a great stay! The listing was just as described and everything was clean and ready for us when we arrived. It was about an 8 minute drive or so to the main beach and pool, and a quick drive or walk to the clubhouse and golf course. We also enjoyed the walking trail. Great place to stay! The hideout is a nice community

Great Lake Ariel Vacation

The house is large and comfortable. Our three granddaughters loved the family room on the first floor so they could watch TV and play games. They learned how to play ski ball. The kitchen is fully stocked and has a large dining area. We enjoyed eating on the deck too. We also enjoyed the firepit. The area is very peaceful and relaxing. The owners are quick to respond and very helpful. It was a really great vacation.

Awesome house

We had a great weekend! The house is beautiful, big, and comfortable. We had a few families staying for a long weekend and we had plenty of room. We took the kids skiing and the hills were perfect for beginners. They loved it! The neighborhood amenities were all great! The neighborhood is a little congested, lots of houses close to one another, but that's the only negative thing I can say about this place. The property is large with a fire pit and seating area right on the golf course.

Nice Summer Family Vacation

The house is immaculate and beautiful, it had everything you could think of and more. We loved that each family had their own bathroom and the game room was a plus for the kids. Also loved the fire pit out back. Owner was very responsive and handled any issues we had. Overall, we had a great week and would recommend the house. In regards to the Hideout community, where the house is located, there was horrible service with cellular. We couldn't get any service unless we drove off the property. And they were also doing construction, which made our commute to the community amenities much longer, since we had to drive all the way out and back into the gate several times a day. Other then that, we had a great stay!

Perfect!

We loved the house! It was perfect for our large family. The children loved the downstairs and there was a lot for them to do down there… we hardly ever saw them!!! The bedrooms accommodated everyone… The bunk bedroom had an extra pullout bed that we did not see from the pictures. When we got there, we were pleasantly surprised. The kids loved that room. The only thing I was nervous about was that the house did not come with sheets. No problem! There is a linen service that dropped off and picked up our linens for us. it was easier than if they had been in the house. would definitely recommend and will definitely be staying there again. The host was responsive and kind. Great experience.

Beautiful Home

We loved the house. It was clean and seemed brand new. Our family enjoyed the house. It was spacious and had something for everyone. The community is great. Lots to offer. The hosts were responsive and easy to communicate with. The only recommendations I would make to the hosts is to make it more clear and upfront that the home does not come with towels and linens. You have to rent them which cost us an additional 200. The linens get dropped on the porch and so you have to make up all the beds and you have to strip all the beds. I. Think the 200 should be deducted from the cleaning fee. The other point I would make is to provide a new bar of soap and a box of tissues in every bathroom would cost so little. Instead I had to go to CVS myself. People know to bring shampoo and conditioner but not soap and tissues. That’s it.

Overall Okay Stay

Overall, the stay was okay. The location has horrible phone reception we could not get any cell phone service while staying in the house. The lock did not work properly and we had to contact public safety to be able to get into the property. Each day we had to use the lockbox to get the key because the keypad code would not work. The host responded quickly after public safety reached out but not before that when tried contacting. Make sure to bring sheets and towels because none are provided. Host included this information in the listing. But if you are like us who book locations months in advance you might miss this information. It should be included in the check in procedures provided. Also, please take pictures before you leave the property so that you are not charged additional fees for cleaning.
