Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Amazing view from the kitchen, you can see horses running across fields and the nostalgia hits you instantly. Recommend this private stay for a couples getaway.
This property is at the end of a long dirt road that is in rough shape. The property is rough around the edges, but everything was in working order. The steam shower in the main bedroom was great. Hot tub was nice and clean. Set up and check-in was very cumbersome. They required check in at a third party location and would not give anyone in my party a code and wouldn't allow me to add a secondary person to the listing. I had to change my travel plans to get there early. Trash: They also make you take the trash off site 8 miles away. They also sent me about way too many emails to get setup. They need to dial in their paperwork.
This property was a long way out of town. There was enough room for a big family. Sadly, the pull out couch was unusable. Thank goodness we brought an air mattress! One bed frame was broken and we had to lay the mattress on the floor. A rung was missing on the stair banister. We had to block it off so our disabled granddaughter would not fall through it. Couldn’t use the pool table. So wobbly!!! Leak in roof in dining room. No hot water in one of the showers. Don’t plan on getting in house around 4 pm! Couldn’t get in til almost 5:30! Furniture old and worn. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend it and we won’t be back.
Unbelievable customer service. We were in a pickle with a rental that we had to get out of. Last minute, we were able to book this place for our family Christmas. The accommodations made to ensure we could get in and “save the family Christmas” was really increasingly. Very responsive and accommodating! The house had everything we needed, lots of space and incredible views. Fun for kids and pets. Great views from the jacuzzi. Very clean and welcoming. Thank you for helping us make amazing memories!
Great parking and location. Lots of donkeys around property.
Little difficult to find the first time but relaxing and not far from things to do. Nice views and also wildlife .
We needed to get out of town, and my daughter wanted to go to the snow for her birthday. So the whole family went. The 4 of us, my in-laws, brother, sister and her husband all wanted to have a weekend together, and this was a great place to spend quality time. The kids were able to sled down the driveway, so we only had to leave to get food. We enjoyed just being together. The road out there is as described: not paved. There are holes and hills and it is bumpy. The main level is very nice. The kids loved the kid bedrooms. There are not actually any towels with an x on them, so bring your own rags and paper towels. Everything is as pictured. And as described. The lower level is older, so if you’re looking for modern - this isn’t your place. But it was fine for what we needed. Mattress note: the main floor master has a great mattress. My mother-in-law said she’s not slept so well in a long time. The downstairs master mattress is the worst. It creaks and is lumpy and uncomfortable. Also the pillows are really hard or overstuffed - I’m not sure how to describe them - they hold their shape. It all really just depends on how picky of a person you are. This isn’t a hotel - you’re not going to have your nice hand soap and there’s no shampoo or body wash like they say, or paper towels. But if you’re low-key and chill and that stuff doesn’t bother you, then this place is great.
Wonderful place to get away from it all. Stunning views, totally peaceful, surrounded by nature (the local donkeys are amazing!), and just picture perfect. The lodge itself is full of character! Could definitely do with some TLC, but nothing that spoiled the holiday. MASSIVE shoutout to Judy, the property manager, who put up with a billion texts from us concerning lightbulbs, etc, not working, and who answered all the time with humour and happiness. The ONLY downside (which they know about) was the check in. Awful, and Im sure they're working on it. But we got an email the day we were driving up telling us to go to their office to check in. (Was left standing outside in the snow for about 15 minutes) then really unhelpful person who refused to check us in - genuinely bad start to the vacation. But again, props to Judy for taking over when she found out and saving the day. All in all, would DEFINITELY recommend for a bunch of families wanting to get away from it. And check directions before you go - we turned up during a snowstorm in the dark, and we were convinced GPS had taken us the wrong way - offroading though what we thought were frozen lakes! Sighed a MASSIVE relief when we turned up. Now to book up our return visit!
Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A rung missing from the balcony was EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. It would have been a three story fall onto sharp flagstone for a pet or a small child. That said, if you have no pets or children, the kitchen living room and master was very nice. Downstairs was a little more run down. Fridge downstairs did not work. Wifi did not work.
Good space for larger family gatherings. Not being allowed to use the gas fire pit was disappointing, but the hot tub was welcome, especially since lake swimming was not inviting at all. The lake is extremely low and green. The road into the property was nearly not usable unless you have four wheel drive vehicles. We were rescued by a local who allowed us access through the private gate on the navigable dirt road. The wild burros were noisy, but really enjoyable to watch, as were the horses. The setting was away from the busyness of the village, but realitively close to services.
