Holiday with family

This is a great house for a large family or multiple families. It’s dog friendly which is super convenient if you have pets and do not want to board them. The house was very clean and matched photos. It was as expected. I gave 4 stars due to the crazy amount of fees (that more than doubled the cost of our stay.)

Great place for a family

We truly enjoyed this home; we had a minor problem locating the towels but after a little search we were able to retrieve them from the dryer. This did not take away from our experience at all. The kids enjoyed themselves and we definitely would stay here again if we are in the area.

Perfect for a Wedding Weekend

We were fortunate to stay at the Maple Cottage for a wedding held at the Separk Mansion. This home is located five minutes from the venue and very close to downtown Gastonia. We enjoyed our stay in this home. It was very clean and is located in a quiet neighborhood. The loft contains toys and games that kept our grandsons entertained. The layout of the home is perfect for a family especially one with children. The water pressure in our shower was excellent and shampoo, conditioner and body wash bottles were installed in the showers. The kitchen had everything needed. I recommend the Maple Cottage for anyone needing a place to stay while visiting Gastonia!!

Plenty of Room

Overall, the location was fantastic, and easy to access. Very cute house, and lots of room if you have a large amount of people coming to stay. Short walk to the museum too, if you have little ones. That said, general cleanliness and maintenance of the house is not up to snuff, and I'm not sure why they charge a cleaning fee if nothing gets cleaned between guests. First, upon arrival there were no towels in any of the bathrooms. The check in comment mentioned this, and there were towels in the drier. There were still barely enough towels for 4 adults and a toddler to get through one day without having to re-wash all the towels again. Next, the shower in the master bathroom does not drain well at all, and halfway through a shower, the tub would be completely full. On a plus, there were more than enough bathrooms around the house to make this manageable. Smaller issues include dirt in the bed, past guests' laundry pushed behind the curtains, and no batteries or remote backs for either of the tv remotes downstairs. Finally, the biggest issue, was checking in on a Thursday, after the lister mentioned that trash was supposed to be taken out on a Wednesday: both outside trashcans were FULL. Not just full of trash, but flies, maggots, etc., which did cause quite an issue with flies inside the property. Overall, the location is great and house is cute, but cleanliness leaves a lot to be desired.

Very homey atmosphere. Rooms were average to large in size. The kitchen was well equipped. Neighborhood was quiet. The beds were comfortable. Except for the pull out bed in the couch.

Christmas in Gastonia!

We really enjoyed having our whole family under one roof for Christmas. There are a few things we want to bring to your attention. When we pulled out the hide a bed we found a good amount of food crumbs and wrappers and toys. We had to wash the sheet from that bed. There was dead bees and other bugs found up in the play area upstairs and a roach in the heat register. I made you aware of the big pice of glass I found in the backyard. There was a large abundance of leaves in the backyard on the patio that I needed to move away from the back door so we could open the door easily. I suggest putting a door on the unused shed in the backyard, it is an invitation to critters or other undesirable things. Better instructions for the use of the dishwasher would be helpful. For a house that can hold up to 12 people a larger fridge would be nice or if you let people know that a cooler might be needed to hold beverages or extra food. I hope these suggestions will help you make your place a better experience for others.

Clean House with plenty of space

The house was really clean. There was sufficient space to sit in the living room and for eating. The owner was very attentive, easy to communicate with and addressed any issues immediately. The accommodations were comfortable. We would stay at the residence again.

Great place to stay for large groups

I stayed here with my bridesmaids for my wedding so we'd have a place to hang out and get ready together the morning of. It was the perfect space for the 9 of us to each have our own sleeping spaces and plenty of bathrooms. The living area was also quite large and comfortable! The location was a little deep in the neighborhood but a short drive to downtown Gastonia which was perfect for our group. The only other small downside was the spiders/cockroaches - I understand it's nature and everything but still not pleasant to see several throughout our stay. Overall a very comfortable property and perfect for our needs!

3 State family get -to gather!

This house is clean and appears welcoming upon arrival. It needs some extras added which I assume will be added as they continue to rent . ( they are new I believe) Kitchen appears to have one of everything, limited bowls for mixing . We had to purchase a coffee grinder because they only have Kurig and the family had favorite brand with them . Please think of providing a drip coffee maker. All beds were comfortable but the mattress in the upstairs queen bedroom could definitely be improved with a softer topper, also perhaps a added peace on bottom of door to keep light out. Guest noted appreciation for great little touches such as treats and coffee pods in the kitchen, brand new soaps ext. in bathrooms, beautiful condition even new games for children, and obviously new linens and towels. Negative comments are only mentioned to enhance things that could be added for future guest. Location was terrific for our group because one of our relatives lives in Gastonia and we were 20 min from Charlotte Airport.

Best stay we’ve ever had

My whole family met in Gastonia for thanksgiving (four generations) and this house made our holiday extra special and comfortable. There was plenty of room for all eight of us to feel comfortable, a well stocked play room for the baby along with all the bathroom amenities you could ask for including shampoo, body wash, makeup wipes! The kitchen has everything and anything you could need plus place settings for ten plus! The owners were very prompt in responding to communication and were so friendly. I’d book and recommend this home to anyone!!!
