Fun Getaway to the woods

It was a good location to the lake, and close to town, we enjoyed our stay, it was a nice quiet neighborhood and glad that it was dog friendly so we could bring out dogs.

Relaxing get-away

Was a wonderful place to relax with the family. The kids went fishing, the moms got to relax in the sauna/hot tub. It could use a few more kitchen basics, but overall great experience! Some tips for your stay: bring Ziplock bags, a griddle if you want to make pancakes/warm tortillas.

Great Getaway

We have a large family and dogs so this was a great stay together. We enjoyed the kayak daily on the water. The lake was beautiful and for fisherman there are some pretty big fish. The backyard was cozy with hammocks, for pit with chairs, and jacuzzi. The grill allowed us to enjoy more time outdoors with meals. It was very nice and relaxing to get it off the heat. The only improvement comments from people staying were the queen beds were on the harder side. I loved our relaxing stay thank you ☺️

Great Home!!!!! Very Spacious, lots of outdoor space.

We enjoyed our stay very much. We hope to stay longer next time. Lots of trees surround the home. Very large fenced in yard. Hot tub was great. Home was very spacious. Kitchen is huge. Beds were comfy. Tv easy to use. Home owners very easy to get ahold of, very responsive. We had zero issues. 100% would recommend.

Big Blue Cabin by Rainbow Lake

Very Spacious with nice internal features. Fenced yard for pets. We walked about a block to Rainbow Lake where there is a small public fishing spot, kayak launch, birdwatching.. we brought chairs and watched the beautiful sunset. We road bikes around the neighborhood. Very safe, quaint, quiet area. The outdoor entertaining areas could use a little TLC. Jacuzzi was clean/functioning, there was a nice gazebo with seating arraignments but really needed a cleaning. An easy quick electric blower would do the trick before guests arrive. All in all one of my favorite stays.

Great location, horribly maintained

Loved the location and easy access to water. That’s about it though. Shower leaks, no towels in the bathroom, horrible strong smell of moth balls that never went away even after airing out the place. Spiders everywhere. Like, everywhere. Hot tub had gravel or some sort of dirt and over all just not very clean, even outside all of the indoor spider webs.

Great location, plenty of room but needs a lil tlc

The property was in a great location near the lake. There was plenty of room for everyone to spread out and have their own space but there were lots of cobwebs inside and outside the property as well as lots of spiders and the backyard was a bit overgrown with weeds so the ants were all over the patio furniture. We might have been the first visitors of the season since there were still some Christmas decorations out. We washed the deck and cleared the webs so we could enjoy the hot tub and hammocks. Unfortunately there is no central A/C but a free-standing unit in one of the rooms. Many great things about the property but the spiders and moth ball scent was a bit overpowering.

Just eh

The house was clean when we arrived but it smelled like sewage so we had to open all windows for the whole day to air it out. Bed spread and throw pillows in master were stained,The hot tub was like a Luke warm bath, it never reached above 97 degrees. The “lake” was a dud. You get to stand in a small space to look at the water is about it. We thought we would be able to hang out by the water and or fish but we would be blocking anybody else from seeing the lake. We were excited there was an out side Heather as it was cold in the evenings but there was zero propane and we found out you have to bring your own propane tank. I felt a bit disappointed about these things and unfortunately they over take anything nice about the place. I’m sorry that this isn’t a fantastic review for you.

Keep searching!

Overall we had a good trip. Everyone had fun and we were thankful for the great location of the cabin. That being said, there were a few things that nearly ruined the weekend for us. When we arrived, we quickly realized that the house does NOT have air conditioning. There is a single rolling evap cooler and that is it. For 9 people in a 2000+ square foot house, we were dying. It was 80+ degrees inside the house the whole weekend. There are ceiling fans in 3/4 of the bedrooms, however the remote for the master is no where to be found so it was unusable. Next, SPIDERS. HOLY CRAP I have never seen so many spider webs in my life. Inside AND outside. Every door, every window. We immediately had to remove 10+ spiders from inside the house on the ceiling and in the corners. Several in our party were bitten during the weekend. The yard is also severely overgrown and unmaintained. Then, we had to pay an additional $80 to rent their 2 kayaks. For a house that's 500 feet from a lake, that seems very silly. Lastly, for the sake of the length of this review already, they hardly provided anything. Each bathroom had less than 2 rolls of toilet paper and there was half a roll of paper towels. I had to purchase both things to get us through the weekend. No laundry soap, no dish washer detergent, one trash bag. For 9 people for four days it was frustrating to arrive and find literally less than the bare minimum. Definitely a first for me. These are all things I wish I would have known first!

Hey Jessica, glad you had a good time, but I'm sorry to hear that you had some issues, and didn't bring them to our attention to address. You told us that "Things are great so far" when we were in communication. In the future we'll try to get ahead of these issues, but our guest the week prior had good things to report, so I figured all was well. We could've provided another ac unit that we have at our other property in town. I've added 2 more ac units at the house to better accommodate future guests. We have plenty of additional supplies like soap and toilet paper in our supply closet. We always have hand soap, shampoo, body wash, etc as an amenity. Regarding the spider webs, I scheduled the pest treatment for last week, so that problem has been resolved, but we are in the woods, so any Pinetop/Lakeside cabin is going to fight bugs, dust, etc. I hope the kayaks worked out well for you. I'm not sure what the complaint is there as it's an optional amenity that goes over and beyond a place to stay, and you agreed to the price in advance, and it's less expensive than other options for rent in town. Sounds like a great deal for our guests!
