We enjoyed our stay. House is well equipped and perfect for families and groups of friends like us. Check in and check out process was easy as well. Highly recommended!
We had a beautiful snowy Thanksgiving in the Catskills! Everything was as described/pictured. It was the first Vrbo experience for my parents, who are in their 70s, and they loved it. Comfortable, clean, and cozy.
We had such a nice time in Margaretville for a long weekend with close friends and family. The property was great for kids to play and us all to spend time together. The kitchen was great for a few at home meals and the fire at night was great for sâmores! The rooms and beds were comfortable and the basement was a great space for us to play board games and hang out together.
Ski trip with friends, important details about the property
Booked this property for a ski/snowboard trip in December. House is as pictured with a few amenities missing. Heating system is also very inconsistent throughout rooms, doesn't increase even if you turn it up.
Addressing the main points of the review:
1. Cleanliness: Overall, the property is clean and very presentable. However, there are a plethora of dead bugs in the window sills if you decide to get some fresh air. Noticed limescale in the kettle and a water filter that needed to be changed.
2. Check-in: Check in is very seamless. Host sent email with details that may be different from the listing. For example, the 11am checkout time was changed to 10am.
3. Accuracy: The listing is mostly correct, except the owners may hide or change up a few policies. For example, access to the dryer and washer is only for stays over 2 nights. There is no provided laundry detergent. The basketball court has a deflated ball and broken pump. The pinball machine does not operate.
4. Communication: Communication with host is good enough while on the property. Host responds reasonably quickly, however responses don't always result in a mutual solution. E.g., saying that guests are not provided any kind of detergent because different guests prefer different brands is not a solution. Or if a guest brings up that there's a lot of dead bugs, stating it is a different bug is not a solution. Owners are unwilling to talk after the stay, even through VRBO.
5. Location: Can easily miss the driveway in.
My family and I had a wonderful time at this beautiful Catskills Getaway Home. The house was exactly as described and pictured, we enjoyed all the amenities. The hot tub on the deck was perfection, just what we needed after a long day of skiing, The downstairs game room was a blast. Everything was perfect for my family of six's annual winter ski trip. Looking forward to returning.
