Reviewer Comments:
Overall our experience with this rental was ok, but slightly disappointing. The management company communicated well, booking and check-in was an easy process, and a minor issue with the kitchen range was handled promptly and professionally. Location is convenient to the lake and north shore attractions, but far enough off the main road to provide for peach and quite. We visited in the shoulder season, so expected some amenity limitations (e.g. pool closed); however, we were disappointed that almost all of the advertised development amenities were either not open or severely limited in hours. A simple inclusion of this info in the welcome email would have set expectations and prevented disappointment. The biggest factor impacting our experience was the outdated and worn furniture, kitchen utensils/appliances, and Motel 6 quality bath towels. The dishwasher was falling apart, the toaster barely worked, the random mishmash of kitchen utensils left much to be desired, and some of the items looked as if they had been in use since the late 80s. When we rent a place with a kitchen, we intend to use it and want the experience to be more akin to cooking at home than making due with leftovers from the thrift store. Did it keep us warm, dry, and safe? Yes. Were there positive aspects? Yes. Could you find a better overall experience in the area for a similar price? Very likely. We have stayed at many similar mountain town rentals across the west and unfortunately this was our least favorite due to the aforementioned issues.
