Big on space and fun!
The location is fabulous and the views are phenomenal. The outdoor spaces are perfectly situated and plentiful. The space planning was well done and clearly very well thought out for large groups - not just in terms of lots of bedrooms and bathrooms but the variety of room sizes, kitchen amenities, layout of the private vs public spaces, extra air inverter to help keep the room temps perfect, and double "everything" (refrigerators, washer/dryer, stoves, coffee pots, blenders etc). The kitchen had multiples of everything you could ever need - utensils, tools, pots, pans, serving dishes, cutting boards - we didn't need anything but the food and paper products. We were at max capacity allowed but never felt that we were all on top of each other - and we were all coming and going (getting ready) at the same time every day as we were there for a baseball tournament. There was outstanding group spaces for eating and hanging out. The downstairs living room with the wet bar area and recliner couches and chair made it the perfect hangout for the tweens and teens in our group.... they had their own space and the adults had their space. The outdoor shower (and actual bathroom) was an amazing feature as was the elevator... especially since the main kitchen is on the top floor. The house itself, inside and out was very well maintained and the long driveway provided more than enough parking for our large group.
The only "negatives":
* Needs more routers - that many people need lots of WiFi all over the house.
* Needs more hooks in the bathrooms for wet towels and swimwear (most just had towel bars). More hooks by the showers or on the backs of doors is a must.
* Dirty linens were left on site (not on the beds etc - they were bagged up, just not taken away) - we had plenty of fresh linens though. Housekeeping just didn't take the old ones away (even though the last renters had been there 3 weeks before).
* A few dead (and one live) bugs (the kind you don't want to see...). Obviously it is next to impossible to keep bugs away from food, water and lots of people but there were some there.
* The grill in the pictures is not the grill on site. Needs a better grill out there - this place is for a big group - you can not accommodate a big BBQ on a small "community park" type grill.
* The descriptions of the bedrooms say 1 room with 2 twin beds and the rest are King or Queen rooms. The downstairs front room is a full sized bed - not a queen.
Luxurious!!
The amenities, layout, and the location with all the fun filled memories deserve 5 stars. However, I took off 2 stars because the cleaning crew for the second year failed to wash the comforters and the dishes. The dishes were in the cabinets and drawers with grease and food on them. I am grateful someone came to get the comforter to wash it and return it immediately, it was very unsanitary. The overall stay was so relaxing until we agreed we will be back next year.
Beautiful home, needs maintenance
We stayed for the weekend in this beautiful home. The floor plan is ideal for multiple families and the rooms are nicely appointed with several King beds. The pool was perfect for our needs and the views, particularly of the sound, we're amazing. There is plenty of space for everyone to dine and the multiple appliances came in handy.
We would love to return to this home, but it is in serious need of some attention. All of the walls appear to have the original, builder-grade, flat paint and the inability to clean the walls shows. There is probably not a wall in the home that isn't stained and in need of repainting. This is particularly true in the kitchen where it's obvious food has splattered the walls over and over both over the ranges and near the garbage can. The carpet in the bedrooms is a similar situation. Every room had many carpet stains and in some cases, the carpet was ripped or pulled. The comforters on the beds were similarly worn and several of us were too grossed out to even use the stained comforters. It also seemed that the cleaning company has cut corners a few too many times; there were streaks and a film on the floors and refrigerators and (food?) fingerprints on some of the cabinets. Most disturbing, several of us woke up with bites that we believe were caused by fleas in our beds. Also, the washing machine on the third floor was filled with musty water when we arrived and was inoperable. Finally, it took the home about 12 hours to cool down from the 78 degrees they had the thermostat set at to a comfortable temperature for sleeping.
Overall, the house needs some thorough cosmetic maintenance and cleaning. It is such a beautiful home with so many wonderful amenities but we found ourselves wanting to go home to sleep in our own beds. We would love to return but not until and unless the house is better kept.
