Location is absolutely amazing. Kids liked pools as well when not out on the boat. Very accommodating house for large multi-family group vacation. WiFi is minimal at best so just be prepared to disconnect and enjoy vacation. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Lots of room great views first class

The house had all kinds of room. Sitting on the porch overlooking the beautiful river and Boldt castle you can feel all the stresses of life float away.

Very Disappointed

This house has so much potential, great location and plenty of room for larger families. The house is stocked with everything you may need. Unfortunately, the house is not very clean and has a major spider problem. There were spiderwebs and cobwebs everywhere inside and out. Several in our party experienced spider bites and had to take benadryl to reduce the swelling and symptoms. Our daughter, who was staying on the 3rd floor, got some kind of bites all over her legs from playing on the carpet. Carpets are stained and furniture is definitely not new, as listed. Air conditioner filters were filthy. The "private" beach area was not private as people and their dogs were there several times a day, along with scuba divers. The hot tub was operational. It was very hard communicating with the property manager, prior to our trip, she never responded to my messages so I called her, which I understand she is busy, but it took three calls to get a few answers. There were no check-in or check-out instructions. I only knew to go to the Bonnie Castle Resort Office from previous reviews. I have stayed at several VRBO homes and have never had no check-in instructions at all. I do not recommend this house, unless there is pest control and a deep cleaning involved before arrival.

Not impressed

The best thing about this rental is the space. We had 15 that fit comfortable.Could definitely use another couch in living room though. There were cob webs in almost every room. Grounds could be mowed better. The communication was terrible, I would get a one word answer or no answer at all! I didn’t know you are supposed to go to Bonnie castle front desk to check in, being that it is listed as a Vrbo.?? You would think since they take care of garbage every day you would be able to switch out your towels during the week…..nope. They just surface clean it needs a deep cleaning and the filters in the air conditioners are gross and dirty. I didn’t have high expectations because of the reviews. Back in the day this house was something. Now it could use a lot of work.

Tom's stay

To start with, once rented property manager was impossible to get in contact with. Upon arrival there was no information on checking in though requested numerous times. Did see a maintenance man who directed us to the Hotel front desk to get key. (Seems property is part of Hotel complex) Exterior of property needs a lot of maintenance. (wires hanging out where light fixtures were removed and not replaced) Grass and weeds over grown around house. . Advertised Dock and pool are park of Hotel, while beach seems to be public area with people wondering around onto property. Carpets very stained and very short on towels. House was large and can accommodate a large group. Kitchen was large and provided all necessities. Refrigerator was large, double door, but could have been better with an ice maker.. Air condition was window units and master bedroom unit was not able to cool room Location and view was great.

Great location!

Location was perfect with a million dollar view! The house must have been magnificent in it’s day! Very outdated now. Fit all 16 of us with room to spare! Hot tub’s cleaning needed to be addressed and response was immediate. We fixed a broken chair when we got there and found a cupboard door had fallen off which had obviously been duck taped on previously. All in all it was a great 5 days with family! Just needed a little bit more TLC!

Excellent. As always a few opportunities for improvement.

Provide directions and check in procedure either by e mail or on web site day before arrival. Add cooking materials to kitchen; Many minor jobs in the house for a handy man. Add additional info to web site: 3 levels no elevator, bedrooms and bathrooms by floor level, photos of exterior, coffee maker is paper filter type; no laundry wash/dry in house, trash pick up instructions, etc. Would stay there again.
