This property is a real gem, so peaceful. Located in a neighborhood, but feels like it’s out in the country. Nicely finished and comfortable. Joey is very responsive.

The property is absolutely beautiful. We thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the porch, listening to the fountain in the middle of the pond and watching the blue heron every morning. I loved it there and would love to go back soon! It is very convenient to many things and it’s very quiet.

The pond house

The pond house is in a wonderful location to enjoy a little seclusion. The pond is full of fish that will literally follow you around waiting to be fed. The home has all the basic needs and everything works as it should. We enjoyed our stay and communication with Joey was quick and easy.

Relaxing

We were very happy. It is a cute little house and very spacious the way it is layed out. It was clean, the bed was comfortable. My husbands favorite part was the pond, he loves fishing and he was able to walk right out the door and do so. I enjoyed sitting outside at night and listening to the bullfrogs

Pond House

Very nice. Interior completely up to date and very clean. Outside still needs some landscaping but pond view/access was great. We needed to do some minor housekeeping upon arrival ( empty dishwasher) and a few cooking items were missing. I bought measuring cups and spoons- just small things. Manager was very responsive to anything we asked about. Overall very comfortable and nice.

Pond House

The house needs some help to be a little more comfortable for guests. Having a little grass outside to cut down on the dirt coming in would be great, a bath mat, door mat or rug to help the floors not be gross would be helpful. A larger television in living space would be great. ALL of the ceiling lights turn on and off with no dimmer or control… it’s all or nothing in the living room. The bathtub was dirty with soap scum that I could write in and only one mostly full roll of TP and a tiny backup roll. I would also suggest a small stand or table in the bathroom to help having somewhere to put toiletries. Walk hooks in bedrooms for towels would be good idea as well. The outdoor space wasn’t set up well to make it feel special…. Lastly, the power went out for a few hours but luckily it was late so we were heading to bed anyway.
