The house was clean and comfortable - accommodated all 16 of my family members. The pool was fantastic and the homeowner responded rapidly to communications.
What an amazing place to stay, was pleasantly surprised at how much the home had to offer with the upper and lower level there was plenty of room for the family to move about and not be on top of each other. The pool was amazing too, the property owners were great and very efficient the one time we had a question they were right there to help us out. Definitely a place we will come back to next year. Thank you for sharing your home with us, we really appreciate it
Doors were all unlocked when we arrived. One door was actually open. Locking the front door with code did not work. The home had a musty,damp odor. Beds were not comfortable. There was an infestation of tiny black bugs. Kitchen faucet was broken making it difficult to use. Pool water was green. Pool table and most toys were broken. The size was perfect for our family.
We spent a weekend with our kids and grandkids. The house was large and clean. We were 9 adults and 5 kids. We enjoyed the pool, and spending time together. Highly recommend this property! Thank you Glenda.
We really enjoyed the openness of our rental. It had adequate bedrooms and family space for all of us and kids. Great above ground pool, swing set for kids. I would recommend this property for familyâs. It is so close to Lake George, but far enough away for a quiet family retreat. Our owners were very attentive. Thank you so muchđ
Six bedrooms with three full bathrooms and beds for 16 - house is much larger inside than it appears from outside. Pool was fantastic, everything was fine! No basic cooking supplies like salt, pepper, ketsup, so be sure to bring everything you need. Plenty of towels, pool towels and sheets/blankets, though! Nice driveway/parking, stairs and ramp a challenge for mobility impaired persons.
Us along with 2 other families (11 ppl) rented this property for 3 nights to spend some time in the Adirondack area for fall and we were so glad we found this! It's located jus a little outside of Warrensburg town, perfect for driving to lake George area or North into the Adirondacks! The house was clean when we entered, very spacious and had everything we needed. The kids enjoyed the play area and the games in the house! We enjoyed using the fire pit and the grill! It was fall and hence we could not use the pool but that would be a great thing for the summer! Glenda was responsive to our messages as well. Overall, really enjoyed our stay at this property.
Vrbo and the property owner double booked our stay. I had to look for a hotel the night of my trip and had to pay triple the amount. I am waiting for vrbo to get back to me about a refund, doubt I will receive it. But overall horrible experience.
The ad said it was two years old, the reality is, it is an old house, but renovated two years ago.
The first night when we got there, kids saw a rat zooming down to the bottom of refrigerator in the lower level. They saw again the next two days. The two families originally agreed taken rooms in lower level did not feel comfortable during the whole stay.
The second night when we got home, after two normal showers, no hot water. We had to wait for a very long time at the end for adults taking shower.
The lower level bath makes very loud and scary noice whenever we use water, no matter sink, shower or toilet. So basically no one wanted to use it after kids went to lower level bed.
Owner did take away trash on time though.
first thing let me start by saying the house is very nice except it has a few flaws that included the dirty pool when try getting in touch with the owner her phone wasn't working and she didn't reply to none of my email. There was 4 fans in the house that wasn't working, no hot water in the basement. There was no running aircondition. The dishwasher was spilling water all over the floor. The last owner of the property show up and was what I consider disrespectful, I understand this is your property but while renting it you shouldn't just pop up and start complaining to my ghest about the noise complain at 4 in the afternoon, then show up again at 10 saying you giving us a second warning when you still haven't reply to our email and we had to clean the house our self. The pool table was missing a stick.overalll the experience was ok a little disappointed and but manageable.
We spent our 5 days July 4th weekend here and the first night we arrived, we found that the floor of one of the bedroom in the basement was all wet. The dishwasher was spilling water all over the floor, and I just read a previous review that another person who rent in June also had the same problem, which means the owner never fix the issue and they pretended they don't know the issue when I notified them. The utility room was flooding with water also, and they told us not to use the sink in the basement kitchen. One of the reason I rent here is having two kitchen in the house but ended up they told us to use the one on the 1st floor only. Another reason we rent here was the pool looks attractive in the picture but the pool was horrible when we arrived, the water was like green and there was a dead frog inside the water. We notified the owner about it but ended up they did not fix it. On the day we left, the owner came in person and told me they just ordered stuffs to fix the pool but unfortunately we left that day so we cannot enjoy the pool. The pool table in the basement is missing one stick and another stick is also broken. I've rented several vacation houses before but this is the only house that will not provide us extra tissue papers in bathroom. Our group is kinda disappointed because we originally think we have a pool and we have two kitchens to use, but ended up we have none. Therefore we requested to check out a little bit late around 2pm on the last day and the owner agree. In addition, I usually receive damage deposit refund automatically after I checked out based on my previous experience. However, this time I did not and I've sent the owner 3 times asking about the damage deposit refund but they did not respond. Besides these, the pictures of the bedrooms and living rooms are okay, just like what you see in picture.
My friends and I stayed here for a weekend in Lake George. All in all, this is a beautiful property and the stay was everything we were looking for to have a weekend away. Even with the things I will mention below this was a nice stay for us. The entire inside was renovated. Nice beds/bedrooms, second kitchen area downstairs with pool-table, plenty of room in the living room, good bathrooms and an updated kitchen. There was plenty of space on the deck to hang out and sit. It was nice to have the firepit and the pool was refreshing. Wifi information was provided and easy to find on the table. This property is a bit secluded with only a couple neighbors around on a quiet street. Close to big grocery store and several gas stations very close.
Few notes about this property (mostly minor and only one serious). This property and the surrounding area have horrible cell phone service. You have to use wifi for calling and texting but the wifi works great in the property. This property was a bit far from places to order food, some friends had to drive into town to meet up with a pizza delivery guy (not the end of the world but something to note if you order out a lot). Iâve seen people comment about the pool being cold, I would say that is accurate, it was very cold. That said we were at the property when it was 90+ all weekend so we all thought it was great! The pool was very clean. I was surprised not to find any salt, pepper, coffee filters, paper towels, or Lysol wipes. Not that big a deal, but just be ready to buy everything you think you might need (side note: the house had extra soap/toiletries). Serious note,the property adjacent (13 Sweet Road) leaves their dogs outside tied to posts and they barked non-stop (and I mean literally without stopping to breath). To defend this property, this was a fraction of the time we spent outside.
Regretfully the communication from the owner was not great. I had messaged, called, texted multiple times leading up to the trip and only got two responses the day before when I asked to check in early and for the door code. Iâve seen the property owner mention they oversee a lot of properties so I can understand running around crazy. We received no check out instructions and nothing was posted in the VRBO portal. We didnât necessarily need anything (the things above werenât that tough for us to figure out or remedy) however if you are looking for a property owner that is very responsive, we didnât experience that.THX!
First, I would like to start by saying that there is truth to every single negative review. We read through the negative reviews and ended up choosing this place because we were booking sort of last minute and it was the only place available that fit all of us. The listing has the incorrect info on the amount of people it sleeps, it shows multiple pictures of the same bedrooms. One of the bedrooms on the lower level had a toddler sized bed. Thankfully we were not at the max number of people so it was still fine for us. The cleanliness is subpar at best, there is dirt in every nook and the master shower is moldy. The basement floor was sticky. Another review mentioned ants which the property manager denied, there definitely are large and small ants everywhere. The pots and pans are rusty and gross. the yard is a dirtpit and the deck gave people splinters.
The pool was not clean and freezing cold. The property manager has the worst communication I have seen. I never received check-in instructions and they would not respond to my multiple messages over 3 days, I ended up on the phone with VRBO customer service the entire ride to the location and only after VRBO customer service contacted her did the property manager write back accusing me of never messaging her. It made for a very stressful arrival. When we got there some guy showed up and said he was there to replace mini blinds, we were not told about this and did not feel comfortable letting some strange man into a house full of women and he said he could come back on Sunday when we checked out and we said that was fine. I received a $200 charge 2 weeks after my stay to replace 3 mini blinds. We broke nothing and the blinds throughout the house are cheap plastic $10 blinds. There were no blinds on the master bedroom windows which I assume is what the man came to replace. I messaged the property manager about this and did not get a response so I had to call and spend another hour on the phone with VRBO to open a dispute. We left the house better than we found it, we killed hundreds of ants, started the dishwasher, folded the towels that were in the dryer and started a load of wash to help out the housekeeper. We left all of the floats we used in the pool and paper products we brought with us. This place is expensive and not close to being worth the hassle. The property manager does not respond to any messages once you book and files fraudulent claims against your card.
This was a wonderful getaway home. We had counted on the bonus room with 4 twin beds which wasn't there. We had issues with cell phone service. Other than that, the accommodations were clean and comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
It worked for our group of 15. Enjoyed the stay with members from four families and the kids loved the pool. Still, there was a musty smell in basement and beds not too comfortable. Additionally, there were lots of ants downstairs and the egress windows screen would pop out a bit letting flys in. Bring a fly swatter.
The rental property was great. This property was perfect for our group of 18. Our group consisted of 8 adults and 10 children. There were alot of toys/games available and the pool was a real hit. Also used the swingset and fire pit. It made for a very enjoyable weekend.
Les points faibles : Communication, emplacement, exactitude de lâannonce
Vacation Killer!
First thing that you have to know: no satellite connection! (messages will take hours to reach the destination, no phone call at all). Second, it that the downstairs 3 bedroom not acceptable for living! The acoustics from upper very noisy floor and toilet flushes is unbelievable (can wake up dead!). One of the bedroom is, basically, hallway with very uncomfortable beds. Temperature control for both floors is unmanageable to set for comfortable existing. The internet was gone for half of our stay and only one way to connect to the rest of the world is driving more the 20 min from property to have the coverage for your phone. Propane for grill was gone after single use. Property manager could not respond for days. Toilet and bath drain didnât work properly: refused to accept everything which should be gone for good (you know what I mean). Everything was very wear out condition (pool table just drop balls on the floor, lamps were crooked and fix by the tape). Terrible, terrible experience!!
House was well-prepared for a large group. However, visit was in October and pool was still open, dirty and an eye sore. Pool should have been cleaned if it was still open or closed for the season. Basement needs to have something done to eliminate the musty odor. Manager never responded to inquiry as to how to close the house nor were there any instructions for garbage, recycling, etc.
