Clean and very attractively decorated accommodation comprising the upper level of a 2-storey home. Thoughtfully equipped kitchen and bathroom (great to have washer and dryer). Well stocked with board games. Lovely wooded outlook and great birdwatching at the entrance to the property driveway. Hadn’t quite realized how snug the living space is, however. As a party of 4 adults and 4 kids, we struggled to fit comfortably around the dining table. Here are a few other observations.
1. The lights in the dining area are frustrating! They stay on for 5 minutes, and then have to be turned on again. It would be a great improvement to address this.
2. The lights in the master bedroom (ceiling plus both bedside lights) seem to be all controlled by the main switch, which means that it’s either 3 lights (ceiling plus two nightstands) or none. Not great when one person wants to sleep and one wants to read.
3. There is a small (1-2 inch) step between the dining area and the living space, and all of us (kids and adults) tripped up and down this MULTIPLE times! Could you make it more visible (maybe color the trim white?) or create a ramp? It would not be very safe for older folks.
4. The description of ‘lake view’ is rather over-promising! We could hardly see a glimmer of water without leaf cover, so I guess in spring/summer it would be even less visible.
5. The property is rather closer than we’d realized to I90/94.
Overall though a great stay. With so many amazing entertainment options nearby, we chose a 1-day pass to Kalahari, hiking at Mirror Lake SP and Chapel Gorge Trail, Wizard Quest and Crazy Golf.
