Whispering Pines: 5 BR, 3 BA Townhouse in Carnelian Bay, Sleeps 12

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The rental had a lot of space to accommodate 12 people. There were board games and tv had ability to connect to all our streaming apps, host was very responsive to communication and questions

Host interaction was great, we had an issue with the heather and host fixed it right away, but the cabin would benefit from updates all over, like the cabinets, carpets and electrical plugs

Overall a good rental but could use a bit of care.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great clubhouse for the kids to swim, ping-pong and all. The townhouse was nice, the living space was small and the small balcony had really no space or chair to sit and enjoy the beautiful scenery. It fit the bill as we were in town for a wedding. Lots of stairs not little kid friendly, but they did provide stair gates. Lots of spider webs we had to brushed off. Close enough to take a walk down to the lake, clubhouse and miniature golf. It was good for the price point.

We were dissatisfied with many things in this house. My son developed serious congestion the first night. I was wondering if he was getting sick but he was fine when we came home. Another friend started having allergic sneezing on the last day. The house felt dusty and definitely needs a deep clean. The beds were not comfortable. Quite a few chipped cups. I didn't realize one was cracked until my tea started leaking all over the table. Temperature in the rooms were not consistent. Some were extremely cold and some were very warm, which made thermostat adjustments challenging. One toilet was not working. Kitchen was not stocked with basics such as sugar. I was under the impression that there was garage parking per the Info sheet emailed to us: Parking – Parking availability is limited to spaces in the garage and/or driveway. So we were disappointed that we had to park so far away and up the hill in a parking lot. Staying here was not what we expected and wouldn't recommend.

The check-in process was easy, and communication was good. We requested and helpfully received late checkout. The house was clean, but is on the older side (think: worn carpets/bathmats, frayed towels, older appliances). Phone service here is very poor, but the wifi worked.Our biggest issue was that the plumbing is very weak--the toilets had very weak flushes, and needed 2-3 flushes to get just toilet paper down. The upstairs bathroom toilet wasn't flushing upon arrival; the plumber who was sent snaked the toilets, retrieved a bar of soap that had been flushed down, but also said that the plumbing really needed updating. And even after his visit, the toilets still had the issue of very weak flushes requiring 2-3 flushes.

Nice spacious rooms. I would add light in the hall.

Instructions were easy to follow/house was easy to access, communication was clear, and when we thought we had an issue with a bathroom water spout, it was quickly fixed (we just weren't pulling the handle hard enough).

Reviewer Comments: The rental was nice though one of the toilets did not flush we had to do it by hand which was very unpleasant, the mini fridge did not work and I found peoples socks still in the home along with floss in the medicine cabinet. Which indicates to me that the home was not cleaned thoroughly.

Extended family vacation with kids. The house is spread out and three floors so a lot of stairs. Our kids are 5-8 so actually loved the stairs and made the loft their play area! We also enjoyed the pool area and hot tub but it is a drive to get there. The walk to the lake and mini golf is 8-10 minute walk and we all loved walking to watch the sunset! Bring bug spray if you go in summer like us. We really enjoyed this property and it’s a corner unit so lovely views!

I would suggest the listing update this so others know the pool isn't available all year.
