MID-week and 3 night minimum rentals considered in the off-season.
excellent place for large family to gather and spend some much-needed time together. Beautiful home with all amenities.
We enjoyed staying at this property. The kitchen was well stocked and labels helped with putting things in their home. Home is beautiful and comfortable. We did miss not having a hottub and pinball machine, but we also did not confirm these amenities with owner. The pool table and movies were enjoyed. Many nice amenities. A maintenance issue came up, but was immediately addressed with a quick in person response. Towards the end of our stay, a bear was around and approaching the house. Our final rating for this home is 4.8!
Overall, this was an enjoyable property for our three week stay. Lake Glenville was a short distance away with boat rentals and fishing. The nearby creek and playground in the development was perfect for families with young children. The three levels were perfect for guest privacy and space. The AC system and the TV system in the house were very complicated and not user friendly. Also, only the top drawer of the two drawer dishwasher was operable during our stay. With all of these issues, the owner was responsive and sent resource persons for assistance. The voluminous property notes did not make clear that there is not garbage service at the house. Tenants take trash to a site about 5 miles away for disposal. Once we figured it out, it was easy to do.
Cleanliness - low to fair - overfilled trash containers, hairs on toilet and dirty table tops upon arrival, doubtful that bedspreads were laundered, towels put away damp, lower level mildew/musty smell. Property condition - in need of functional maintenance - lighting in dining room and one bathroom - non functional, then due to a storm - the electricity went out, along with the electricity went running water. The property manager was hard working, but overwhelmed. The electrician told us having a generator to run the water pump was expected in most developments - unfortunately the owner of this house did not have one - that is the owner's fault. Even when the electricity came back on the water pump didn't work - that is owner's fault due to lack of maintenance. Eventually the plumber was able to repair the pump, but made the comment - it was pretty outdated. To make the repair he had to use a screwdriver to access the garage where the electrical panel was located. Lower level at least needs a dehumidifier, probably wouldn't hurt in other areas. I communicated privately with the owner, but have received no response, so I decided it should be reported publicly. The structure itself has potential however the description of the linens was not accurate and the condescending nature of the instructional letter was insulting. We were exploring for a place for an extended stay - this will not qualify. My husband will request at least a partial refund due to the electrical and water issues.
Great experience, the house was exactly as described. The outdoor space was used the most during our stay. We all enjoyed our stay at the house.
We had a great time staying at Blue Moon for Spring Break! We had 6 siblings/spouses and 10 cousins and it was the perfect retreat for a large family. Kids had a blast playing pool, running around outside and watching 3D movies. The grownups had plenty of time to relax with some wine on the porch. Such a great vacation. WiFi was a bit of an issue, but found that if you stand at the top of the driveway, the signal picks up.
We gathered our four adult children + one spouse, + two young adult relatives, for Christmas week at Blue Moon Lodge. All pre-rental communications with the owner were prompt, clear, and courteous. Instructions for using the home were detailed and clear. The house is exactly as pictured — which is to say, it's stunning and quite comfortable. House sleeps 16, so we had ample space to spread out. Glenville and surrounding communities are breathtaking. Our first stop in Glenville was to purchase a Christmas tree. We brought decorations for it from home and set about enjoying a perfect Christmas week, which it was until sometime on Christmas eve during the night, when the heating system unexpectedly went out. Not the owner's fault! I believe the true test of rental owners is how they respond to issues with their property. Between Tim and his excellent local property manager, we received as much help as was possible. Unfortunately, we had to leave a day early as there wasn't a way to quickly resolve the HVAC problem. That said, the property manager even helped find someone to clear the icy mountain road in the subdivision on the day after Christmas so we could safely exit the steep road. Today, as promised by the owner, I received a refund for two nights -- the night without heat and the night we couldn't stay. This is a crucial point about VRBO or other private rentals. Will the owner do the right thing when there's an issue? Tim was truly terrific to work with and despite the hiccup in our trip, I would absolutely rent from him again. Thanks, Tim and Chris, for all you did to help us enjoy a Merry Little Christmas in Glenville!
Beautiful home, sat out on the back porch every afternoon and evening with wonderful views. Fires at night. Highly recommend
Great property for a family get away. Loved the different seating areas for either whole group activities or quiet reading time. For one in our party it was the first time watching a 3D movie! We also cooked all our meals, a first, and had plenty of plates, glasses, pots and pans for our large group! Owner was quick to respond to any inquires we had.
Beautiful home and setting. It is the perfect layout for a large family gathering. Our grandchildren absolutely loved the bunk room in the basement. All the beds are extremely comfortable. The kitchen is very well stocked and there are several great small appliances to assist with meal preparations. We really enjoyed this property and would certainly return.
