We had a fabulous time with our teenagers and adult children. The cabin has all of the necessities, was close to Old Forge and inlet and plenty of room. We will definitely stay here again.
We stayed the last week of July with a group of ten people (4 adults and 6 kids). The property was perfect for a large group, with plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms. The property was clean, and the property manager Meaghan was very responsive. The house is five minutes away from Old Forge and a few more minutes to Inlet. I highly reccomend!
We had an amazing time staying at Elegant Rose! It was such a beautiful property, looked so good on the inside. It was clean, and the check-in and check-out process were incredibly easy as well. We just canât say enough good things about Elegant Rose and how much fun we had there this past week so thank you so much for providing us with such a great place to celebrate our vacation and 4th of July!
The house was beautiful!! We enjoyed our stay so much we asked for another night but unfortunately it was already reserved. The only downside to this house I would say is no child gates to keep children off the one set of stairs, the other set did have a pocket door to close over which was nice. The view was not as pictured as the trees were over grown so canât see the lake view that great. Also the fire pit in the front yard was very small not much room and was a little nervous as my kids are younger. The fire pit out back looked unused, possibly due to the tree limbs having over above so we didnât feel comfortable using that one.
Overall though it was a wonderful house to stay in a quiet area close enough to town.
Beautiful spot near the lake, bedrooms and bathrooms on all three levels, clear instructions. (we were aware ahead of time that we had to bring our own towels, linens, sheets and pillowcases ). There were a few maintenance issues we had to go over with the owner, but weâd still stay here again; she responded to our call. Lovely times in the dining room area and decks, looking out through the trees at the water.
Elegant Rose was the perfect place for our group. With plenty of room, and 3 floors to spread out in, we all had a wonderful time. We were celebrating me beating cancer - I donât think thereâs any place better to celebrate with my whole family!
In the description it didnât say we had to bring our own linens, toilet paper and take our garbage to the dump. I only found that out a few days before the trip. I never booked a place that you had to do all that so it was a little inconvenient.
Les points faibles : Communication et exactitude de lâannonce
House was very nice, butâŠ
The house was beautiful and well kept. We only had a few issues with the house/listing.
1. Listing says there is access to a private beach a short drive away but nowhere in the house was there any directions given to the beach. I reached out to the realtor company who was leasing the house and they were unresponsive so we never got to take advantage of that feature.
2. Fridge did not keep food cold. Had the fridge on the lowest setting and the butter wouldnât even get hard in 2 days stay.
3. Third floor smoke detector in the hallway had its battery removed and not replaced (so the smoke detector did not function).
4. WiFi went out multiple times and had to reset it.
5. We rented the house in March for August and it allowed pets, sometime between March and our stay they changed their mind about letting dogs but failed to notify anyone who already had existing reservations. We found out week of the trip and had to beg and plead (plus mail a separate check as a security deposit) in order for them to honor the original booking agreement.
6. BRING FANS!!! None of the rooms have ceiling fans or any airflow. Very hot on an August night. Bring your own fans.
Other then that, the house was nice, basement/first floor was key due to the heat as it stayed cool down there. The house was clean when we arrived but directions said to vacuum before you leave, well the vacuum was from 1980âs and the bag was packed so full it wouldnât work. Again, if you have no pets and kids itâs probably a good place to stay but it just wasnât ideal for what we wanted considering old forge is a highly popular family destination.
The positive: Gorgeous location, wooded, private and beautiful views. We had 3 couples and this house had plenty of room to relax, prep meals, and enjoy the views. Great location, quick drive to Old Forge and Inlet. House itself was clean and nicely decorated.
The negative: dishes and pots and pans were dirty... like someone used them and put them back. Caked on grease on the pans, grease on the plates. With covid going on, I had to unload the cupboards and run everything through a dishwasher cycle before using it. Told the property manager, no acknowledgement. Since checkout, I've attempted to contact the property manager 3 times to see if my security deposit check had been torn up, no response.
All that said, the positive outweighed the negative and I'd stay again
Family spent a long weekend at this house. Beautiful home with plenty of room for all of us. House had good view of the lake and close to Old Forge. Would love to stay again next year.
The home was very nice with great views of First Lake. The short distance to Old Forge was a plus. Also, the street had very little traffic making it a quiet and relaxing place to stay.
