Great stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is the second time we’ve rented this home and, again, it was a great stay. The home was clean with a well stocked kitchen. Perfect setup for our extended family staying to enjoy a local wedding. Plenty of room for our gang and comfortable beds. The fenced backyard would be a bonus for guests with pets.

The kids had a blast in the house and outside. Beautiful location and very quiet mountain. Also conveniently located to more “touristy” towns if you want activities.

We had a great time and enjoyed our stay very much. This house is beautiful and clean. I really wanted to take advantage of the awesome porches but unfortunately it rained for most of our stay. Our 14 and 11 year olds really enjoyed the game room and barely came up from the bottom floor. The only problem we had was having dogs that needed to go out to potty. There was no flat grassy area or easily accessible area to quickly take them out. With the rain, I immediately fell and slid down the hill. Once we had a sunny day, the dogs were able to run around the fenced in area which is a hill but was ok once dry. We didn’t check out the community center but the overall area is really nice and well kept. I appreciated all the information that was available about the rules. Everything expected of you and available amenities was well laid out in several different formats. Like electronically and also posted up in the house. The lady working at the gate was very helpful and I felt like we were safe and taken care of. Very nice overall!

Thank you for taking the time to write a thorough review. We're really glad you were able to enjoy your vacation, the cabin and our community even though it rained during part of your visit. Here in the mountains, you don't find many flat, grassy areas for dogs. But we're glad you enjoyed the fenced area after the weather passed. Thanks for letting us know that you appreciated the communication via multiple formats too, electronically, posted in the cabin and word of mouth by our gate guard. We enjoyed having ya'll out and hope you keep us in mind for a future stay!

Beautiful, clean house

So lovely! The house itself is beautiful, clean, and laid out well and the community it's in is safe and quiet. The hike along Laurel creek is very easy with many great spots where you can get in the creek and wade around. We would happily return.

Perfection!

We loved our stay. The home was very on point. Beautiful decor & finishes. My kids loved the downstairs area - bunk beds, tv with comfy chairs & blankets, air hockey, & game machine. My husband and I enjoyed all the outdoor seating and the indoor fireplace at night.

Christmas trip

Wonderful home a little further out of town then I expected but still nice. Manager was very helpful an even came to re light pilot lite for us when it went out on fire place. A little challenging arriving at night with directions. Overall great stay.

Nice

The home was beautiful. Rockers on the porch were a true highlight. Be prepared to be disconnected as the internet and satellite were extremely limited. It is very far from everything. Had a great stay. Would not recommend for younger children.

Great home!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is in the perfect location, very clean and beautiful! Loved the game room and decks! The only things that could be improved ( not dealbreakers at all) the main bed should define a queen not a double, the ice maker/water should work in the fridge and it would be super nice to have some sort of steps going down the back yard to the lake/trails. It was a great time staying here!

Hi Meredith, We didn't know the ice/water dispenser were not working. We could have fixed it while you guys were there if you had reached out. We are sending maintenance over now to address that. We will share your other feedback with the owners. We are glad that you enjoyed the stay and hope you will come back again!

We had a blast in the game room. The kitchen was well stocked with all tools you need to cook. The master bathroom upstairs is great. I would suggest hanging out on the lower porch in the hanging chairs.

Summer Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Perfect rental for kids and adults. Great location! No need to leave the mountain except for groceries. There was plenty to do for all the kids ranging from 10-17. Community pool, great trails to hike and lakes to fish at. Plenty of room for 4 adults and 6 kids. The cabin had everything needed to cook for 10 people. Fun game/movie room for the kids. Everyone in our party of ten had a great time! The property manager was readily available for any questions or concerns. We would stay her again.

Property Needs Updating

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a nice stay at Lakin it Easy. The cabin needs some updating and improvements. First is the front door locking mechanism. The door will not unlock after putting in the code. After 3 tries it resets and then the display will not activate. Even with new batteries it still would not work and we had to leave the back door unlocked when we went anywhere. Second the outdoor deck furniture is rusted and strewn around the deck. Not safe to sit on. The wooden chairs need painting and the seat cushions need replacing. One of the orange cushions is in the woods probably blown off the deck by the wind. Third the mini split heating/AC unit at the top of the stairs leaks water onto the floor. It cannot be used. Lastly a breaker tripped that controls the receptacles in the master bedroom. It would not reset and needs replacing. Lamps, TV and portable AC would not work due to the breaker.The property manager is receptive to these issues being fixed.

Exceeded Expectations

We have long talked about renting a cabin/mountain house for the week of Thanksgiving as our two families have shared the holiday together for several years now. The 3 levels were absolutely perfect for the kids, us early risers on the main floor and the not so early risers on the third :) The hiking trails were a blast (make sure you have weatherproof hiking boots lol), views were amazing, the game room kept the kids entertained as well as us adults. It was overall a great time! We did read in a review prior to our stay that the tips on the pool sticks were missing so we did come prepared with our own. Thank you for such a great experience and the memories we were able to leave with!

Lovely Place at Lakeside!

Lakeside was beautiful and relaxing. This place had everything for us and everything was easy to access from check-in all the way to check-out. The only few drawbacks I found about Lakeside are: - Both of the pool sticks had not tip - No ping pong balls - No air hockey puck - Top AC unit was leaking We came on a Saturday when it was raining so we didn't have much to do inside. One recommendation I would have to the owner is to have more trash bins outside. We barely had enough room for all the trash and it's kind of inconvenient for us to leave the cabins to drop off trash and come back. Overall, Lakeside is a beautiful place and I would highly recommend this place to family and friends.
