I can't say enough great things about this rental! So clean and comfortable with everything you need! The golf cart was very convenient as there are alot of hills in the community! We loved the screened in porch at night and playing shuffleboard! The arcade games in the bunk room were a hit for the whole family. And I think my kids favorite was the vintage Pepsi machine with complimentary drinks! Would recommend this house to anyone. Hope to return next year!
This property was absolutely perfect. We have stayed many places and I’m not sure there has been anywhere that quite meets the standards of Bigfoot Badin’s. They had everything you could think of… beach items, toys for the kids, pack n play for a baby, beach towels, and the list goes on. The place was very clean and appeared well kept. The lay-out of the beds was perfect for a couple families sharing this place, especially with several kids. The kids loved the bunk beds and the downstairs tv area. The complimentary drink machine was a hit with our kids as well. The golf cart was wonderful to have, especially to get around in the resort. Having access to the lake, the pool, volleyball, a playground, and so many other amenities really made our stay worth it. Brian was very responsive to our few questions and was very helpful during our stay. The resort was very quiet and low-key which our family loved. I would recommend this place to anyone and definitely plan to stay here again should we ever be back in this area.
