Very nice property.

House had plenty of room for our large family group. Owner was very responsive and written info available at the house answered most of our questions concerning our responsibilities during our stay. Beach at the lake was enjoyed by all. Staff at the office where you check in to the gated community was very friendly and helpful.

Great home and location

We had a wonderful stay. Spacious home and comfortable. The only issues were not all of the lights worked in the kitchen and living room and the propane fireplace on the enclosed porch would not light. Not all Towels for bathing had washcloths so these little items require some greater attention to detail and a quick check before someone rents it but overall it was a great cozy beautiful clean home. We enjoyed it very much and would highly recommend!

Excellent Choice

This house is beautiful. It was clean, well organized. The cabinets are all labeled so you know where everything is. The kitchen was fully equipped. The bedrooms were beautifully decorated with high end linens and comfortable beds. The basement was great for the kids to hangout while the adults stayed upstairs and watched movies and sports. Some of us skied at The Hideout that was right up the block and very affordable. The location is great with a supermarket, pharmacy, beer distributor and wine store 10 min away. Communication with owners were great. Check-in smooth. We loved our stay and hope to stay here again in the future. Thank you for a great weekend away from NYC.

Great Getaway

We stayed for 4 nights and it was a perfect getaway. House accommodated 4 families and kids had plenty of room to themselves. Plenty of room for everyone. Loved the outside porch with fire pit. The Hideout is great with so many amenities. Kids went skiing and the mountain was perfect for first timers. Would definitely be back for another visit next year.

Awesome!

The house was beautiful and well stocked. Every family was able to have their own space. The best part was the finished basement. The kids loved it down there and the adults didn’t have to be subjected to all their screaming! We recently sold our home at the Hideout and this was the first time we rented. Great experience. We will rent this house again.

Disliked: Communication

Communication was awful

The house was lovely. The book onsite states to let them know if there is anything broken or stained etc. So we messaged on VRBO that there was something in the washer that looked like it was covered in feces and the grill was dirty. I was told significantly later that the cleaning people had found a rag with coffee grounds in it so they threw it in the washer and that a new grill was coming Friday/Saturday. There was no laundry detergent, we let them know early in the week. The temp in the house was getting clos to 80 so I reached out early in the week about how to correct that and never heard back. There was a power outage, which is obviously not something that can be helped but there were alarms going off because there was no matter is in the smoke detectors so we had to disconnect them all to be able to go in the house. And I had to reach out to get information about when the power might come back. On Saturday someone came to deliver the grill but we didn't know what anyone was supposed to do with it so we said as much to the delivery person. Then 10 minutes later Peter showed up at the door, without saying who he was, and handed my husband a bottle of laundry detergent and asked if the grill came. Apparently he had messaged me an hour earlier telling me what to do with it and I didn't see it because I was packing. Meanwhile there were several of.my messages he never responded to. We explained how frustrating it was for it to be warm and uncomfortable and be ignored. Told Peter how we called the number listed on VRBO and in the book and he told me it was the wrong number as it I put it there. This man laughed at us. He literally laughed and told us it was a vacation and we should relax...as if I came on vacation to worry about someone else's grill delivery, what if we hadn't been there at all? Told us we didn't know how to work the Nest, not that there were instructions but it was pretty straightforward. He went up and adjusted it to 58 and shockingly it remained at 76 all day. The home and community was lovely but that man was awful and rude. If the owners are interested I have a video of him being rude to us as well as screen shots of the messages he ignored and tried to pretend he responded to.

Mini family reunion

We were able to enjoy this space with 3 families with small children. There was plenty of space and the screened back patio was perfect for the on and off rainy weather we had on one of the days.
