Family Time for the 4th of July!

Our family was looking for a place to stay where there would be no fireworks allowed on the property because our dog is extremely fearful of the noise. We were pleasantly surprised that we did not hear more than 5 pops and that was it! The townhouse was very clean and comfortable. Each couple had a king sized bed! The kitchen was well stocked and we prepared a few meals. We had access to the community pool which was fun for us and our grandson. We also golfed on the property. Our host was always prompt with any questions we may have had. Overall we had a lovely stay!

Fun stay!

Villa at Northridge had an ideal layout and fresh design. We loved the proximity to the resort and amenities, as well as the beautiful views from the main living room. The bedrooms are huge and the kitchen well-equipped. A fun stay that accommodated everyone in our party.

1- there were ants in the kitchen. On the walls and on the counters. You should have that checked 2- there were some outlets that did not work. One in the bathroom, one in the bedroom main floor and one in the family room. 3- there was an order from the garbage can cabinet. Musty smell. We sprayed Lysol but it did not go away. 4- concerned about the tape in the upstairs bath.
