Perfect little home away from home, with the good and the bad
the good:
1. comfortable, and clean
2. the owners/managers are very nice and helpful. When we had any issue, they were right on it.
3. Perfect location for our visit - we have family that lives in Brockway and BRF.
4. Beds are very comfortable, but needs new pillows
5. Plenty of hot water for 4 adults to shower every day :)
6. Was wonderful to have washer/dryer in the home for our 8 day stay!
7. If you like to sleep 'cold', request the basement bedroom. Being from Alaska, it was nice to sleep in an area of 65 degrees (or below) vs. the upstairs where the temp was too warm for us. There is a half bath downstairs, which suited us fine.
THE BAD:
1. States this place sleeps 11, but only dishes for 6 people. When we had family over for dinner, we had to use paper plates and plastic utensils
2. The dining room table is GLASS, and NOT secure. When my 8 year old nephew leaned on it during a card game, the table top and contents fell onto the floor
3. The main floor shower stall is SMALL. It was a tight squeeze for me to shower, and I am 5'5" 135 lbs!
4. The home has way too many knick/knacks and decorations. If you have small children along, or planning to visit, you will have to hide A LOT of stuff (we put all the 'stuff' in the empty pantry cabinet)
5. There are not enough pots and pans to plan any sort of FAMILY meal.
6. The bedroom on the main floor - the window does NOT close all the way. It appears when the windows were remodeled, this window was ordered 1/4 inch to short -- if you tried to close it on the bottom, the gap was on top!
Now that we 'know' this place, and know what to expect, we will plan our next visit accordingly (like bring my own hand mixer, and cheese grater, and baking pans).
We will definitely stay here again!
It really was a good fit for our family.
Thank you again!!
