Those in our group this year were 2 grandparents, one daughter, two grandsons ages 2 and 1. The house is lovely and a great location. A one-floor plan with spacious living room, kitchen and bedrooms - all very good! What was not so good was the cleanliness we were met with. The kitchen floor needed scrubbed upon arrival, and the carpet in living and dining rooms was quite terrible - very spotted, stained, and overall had the children's little feet and hands very dirty within a short time. I realize the owners are likely not the ones who clean the house, but whoever does it for vrbo needs reprimanded. It was hard to relax and fully enjoy staying there with all the spots and large splatter marks throughout the carpeted areas. Plus even after we personally scrubbed the kitchen upon arrival, it truthfully still need a firmer mop and stronger detergent. It never did come fully clean. If the cleanliness issues were remedied, it is a delightful place to stay - great quiet location and a nice layout inside. The owners (who we had to contact for an internet problem) were very sweet and extremely responsive - I'm sure they are very good people.
Owners quick to respond to my questions. Rooms spacious and bright. Appreciated having 2 bathrooms!
We rented cotages 25 years ago when our children were little. Now they are grown and we have 2 grandchildren. We figured what better place to take a family vacation than Lakeside. We rented this cottage for a week. The cottage was very nice and clean. Bathrooms were very nice. We like to cook and found the kitchen spacious and well equipped. Location was perfect and quiet. We hope to rent same place again. Owners communicated and responded quickly. I highly recommend!
I've been coming to Lakeside my entire life and this is one great property!... Very clean(xtra thx to your cleaner)!... Very spacious!.... Perfect for our family....Well loved, well-stocked & well cared for by the property owners...Lovely corner...Terrific location...Nothing like coffee & a book or visiting w/extended family on the screened-in porch yet quiet inside!...Plan to be back again next year...thank you so, so much for sharing your cottage ?
Nice home. Needs some TLC. Great location! Owners respond quickly.
We felt right at home at this property. Cozy and clean with almost everything we needed. Personal touches that tell you this house is full of laughter and family love. We felt it too! There was ample space for everyone and the way that the bedrooms/bathrooms were separated allowed for perfect privacy. The house also sat in a great spot, near a park and close to the pool, lake and downtown area. We love relaxing poolside during the day and spending our evenings wandering down by the lake, in town! I will be recommending this home to others, and feel confident that they will enjoy it as much as we did :)
I’ve stayed in a few homes in t Lakeside and this is by far the best house we’ve stayed in. The house is deceptively spacious. A lot of properties in Lakeside feel cramped. This had a spacious kitchen, living room, and dining room. The bedrooms were nice and roomie and would be perfect to share a house with another family/in-laws (we stayed with just myself, my wife, and two children). Terri and Daniel were excellent hosts. Very communicative and quickly answered any questions we had. The house was clean and met all expectations. Would love to stay there again next year!
Worked very nicely for our family vacation at Lakeside
Easy communication with property owners via email - spacious house with big kitchen and dining room for family dinners- very much enjoyed our week!
Owners responded quickly to questions.
Very good location with a good amount of room for my extended family. Believe them when they say no linens. We ran out and bought some dish cloths and towels for the kitchen and some additional hangars for the closet. Discovered in the closet many games for the kids to play. That was great. Also loved the large dining table that allowed us to all gather together. I would definitely stay again.
Wonderful!
We really enjoyed this home. The front screen porch was our favorite place to sit and relax.
Great house; wonderful location in Lakeside; great experience with the owners. Roomy and very functional layout for 4 adults and two preschoolers. Great kitchen, dining and living spaces. Enjoyed the patio and porch. Room to roam, play and have privacy. As others note, the pictures do not do it justice. Having Cherry Park across the street was wonderful. Short walks to lake or pool. The best Lakeside home we've stayed at! We hope to return to it.
House and owners were awesome. We really enjoyed our stay and the amenities that were with the house. it was a very comfortable and roomy home for our group. They only surprise we had was re-entry into the community the Friday evening of Memorial weekend. We were not aware of the lakeside Chataqua per person entrance fees into the community. (~$28.50 per person. per day). Fortunately the gate attendant did allow us a free pass for overnight so we could get back to the house and pack for our departure the next day.
