Great place for a weekend away
House was great and spacious. Could’ve been a little cleaner, but not awful. Would recommend supplying a little more cleaning supplies just under the kitchen sink to allow other guests to clean up while staying… Clorox wipes, a vacuum that works, extra hand towels ….all would’ve been great. Beds were comfortable and plenty of room for everyone. The garage and games were an awesome bonus and the paddle boards and kayaks were a hit! But you do have to walk about a 100 yards through the water/weeds if you want to be out in the lake!

Christmas Time Together
The property itself was awesome! We loved the space! We enjoyed both the house and the game room and also enjoyed the outdoor space! The process to check in was easy but asked a few questions that never got answered. It was a snow storm and the driveway was cleared before we got there and checked a couple times while we were there! Okay onto our cons: if you offer hide a beds and blow up beds. I feel that sheets, blankets and pillows should be offered. And that the blow up bed should hold air (even for a 2 year old). It had a hole in it and was sticky! Bathrooms all had a partial roll of toilet paper. We reserved for 8 adults and 6 babies. We would have brought toilet paper if we had known. Instead we had to go buy some. Also there weren't any hand towels for the bathrooms! If we had known we would have brought some. Made a Christmas meal that entailed mashed potatoes. The hand mixer didn't work. All in all. We loved our time. Just needed a few things that we are used to at all other places that we have stayed.

Fun Family Getaway!
The Edgewater Escape was such a great place for our extended family to all get away for a few days. We all came from different parts of the US and everything was so smooth and effortless - from checking in/getting into the house/exploring and having essentials there. The fall scenery was beautiful. The house was so clean and welcoming with plenty of comfortable places to sleep for our group of 13. Everyone enjoyed the game room above the garage! Even with some rain we enjoyed the paddle board and kayaks. Communicating with the host was so easy and he replied quickly and was always so kind and helpful. Highly recommend staying at the Edgewood Eacape!!

Family vacation
Loved the property and really enjoyed our stay. My grandkids loved the bunk room, paddle boarding, kayaking, fishing off the dock and the game room was a huge hit. Thank you for sharing your vacation home with us. Best, Blackwell family
