Good times

Property is very spacious, could easily fit a couple families. The hottub does not work. It was at 46 degrees when we arrived. Other than that, everything else was fine.

Needs some fix up

Overall, this could be a great place. After I read a past review had trouble with the hot tub, I checked this right at check in...sure enough...cold and not cleaned. The display on it was flashing on and off. I called the management company as they had requested I do at check in and the person taking my call said she's have to have someone call me back. No one ever did. As I continued looking at it, the side wood panel was off the surround of the hot tub, the electrical panel inside had been opened, and the electrical panel on the side of the house that went to the hot tub was open as well. So it obviously had been down awhile and no one let me know this wouldn't be available. Once we settled in that night, we found that the air hockey table didn't produce air, the water heater down there had a panel off and laying on the floor, neither ice maker in either fridge worked, and there was an unfinished ceiling patch in the second building. The place otherwise is well represented by the pictures they have. The cleaning team does do a good job.
