Our Stay
Property Manager, TripForth, was very prompt at addressing questions and issues before and during our stay. Home could use a major maintenance overhaul and repairs. But provided all we needed. The carpet is very stained, as others have reported. I agree the carpet should be cleaned, but I also feel that folks staying in the home should respect the property and try to be more careful and try to clean up spills as they occur - this could help. The sleep sofa could not be used for as a bed, as it has no mattress. Until this is resolved, I don't believe the sleep count should be adjusted. Fortunately, we were not counting on using it, but the others may be.

Family Fun Getaway
We had a great time! There were many activities to do and enjoy and fit for all ages. From the hiking, swimming, playing tennis and pickle, going to the water park and sightseeing, we all had a blast. The house was a perfect size for our 13 people with plenty of space to rest, relax and enjoy each other’s company.

Duggan Stay
This was a roomy, comfortable house with plenty of space for a family. Several things of note: although the description describes an inclining driveway, it doesn't say that the driveway is crumbling and has pot holes, making the uphill drive difficult and hard on your car. Inside, the carpet is terribly stained all throughout the house. Although the house appeared clean, I had to pick up dead bugs on the floor.

We had 10 adults and 6 children; the space was great. Carpets needed some work. I suggest the carpets be replaced.

Enjoyed stay
The facility worked for us. We dragged furniture in from the screened porch to augment the meager offering in the living room. Bedrooms were good and so were bathrooms. The shampoo/soaps/etc were "starter packs" as described by property manager and we went to the store to add to them. The location was great!

Weekend getaway
The outside and layout of this property was great. However, it’s was dirty and old smelling. The quilted blankets, pillow cases, carpet, walls, headboard, and outside furniture were stained. I understand wear and tear on the outside furniture but when there’s visibly dried food, that’s a problem. The pillowcase I was about to lay my head on had orange sauce stains. The carpet had heavy and visible stains on it as well. I don’t understand what the cleaning fees are for if we had to start a load of towels, strip the beds, and remove all trash from the home. That was unsettling. This property would be a lot better if the 70’s/80’s furniture and appliances are replaced with newer ones. Also the cleaning must be completed properly!

Good location, dirty kitchen
The kitchen and hall closet had mouse droppings. The carpet through the house was full of stains. The kitchen was not adequately equipped- no spatula, only one dish towel, few utensils, and no mixing bowls, for example. Mouse poop in kitchen pots and pans. Several dishes were put away dirty. We were really surprised by this. The house itself is a nice space but the kitchen is not. The rooms are well sized and had basic furnishings. The living room is a nice gathering space. The location was great and the best part of the rental was access to the fitness centers. Kitchen and carpet needs to be deep cleaned.

Résumé
Bien située et bien fonctionnelle pour un groupe de 12 personnes, malgré quelques bris mineurs (chaise, barre de soutien de serviette, coffee pot, lumière four) à l'arrivée et BBQ à nettoyer). Excellentes communications et remplacement très rapide de la cafetière lorsque mentionné par courriel.
