Perfect Spot!

Me & a few buddies stayed here for half of our trip to Garland but definitely did not want to have to switch to another place. Place had everything we needed, and the back deck was perfect; very spacious for grilling out and relaxing! Traveled in late September. Weather was amazing and no issues getting cabin warm or cool!

Woodsy decor gave our cottage a homey feel. Friendly, live support personnel were just a call/text away 24/7. Our windows looked out on the trees ringing the golf course. Appliances included mid-size fridge, toaster, iron and hairdryer. The only negative was how much sound carried between the upper and lower sleeping areas.
Parking is level with the house.
The property gave us beautiful views of fall colors!

Fabulous!

This property is well maintained, extremely clean and very well equipped. It was easy to find and such a beautiful location. The beds were comfortable and the towels were so plush! It was great having a washer and dryer as well as a natural gas BBQ grill that we did utilized. The deck is large and just a pleasure to sit out on and view the trees and golf course. We saw two deer and a family of wild turkeys right in front of the deck which was a pleasant surprise! Grocery store as well as a Rite Aid drug store is a few miles down the road which was very convenient. There is no question I would stay here again, I was sad to leave…what a haven!

Overall decent property to stay at. Upon checking in I received a phone call regarding no internet service and was told there was an outage in the area. Our 3rd day a cable guy arrived and found a bad line outside of the home and was able to get service restored. No discount was offered for any inconvenience. Candie, was extremely professional and her communication was second to none!
