This is the first time we have stayed on this side of the bridge and thankfully, it was a good idea! With the immense heat this past week, this side was slightly cooler and calmer which was a pleasant surprise. Price was great for this condo and location was fantastic!
Pros:
-fantastic location
-priced well
-love that it gets afternoon sun meaning you can sit on the patio with a lake view and not be too hot
-3 bedrooms was fantastic and the townhouse was well laid out and well furnished
-view of the pool was great as well as access through the master bedroom
-well stocked in the kitchen including plastic cups and bowls
-comfy beds and furniture
Cons:
-dishwasher only cleaned part of the dishes…some didn’t even look like the water touched it. We ended up hand washing all the dishes
-toaster oven was finicky and turned off and on while cooking
-coffee maker takes over half an hour to brew a pot
-boat slip has only 2 cleats making it difficult to tie the boat and prevent it from hitting the dock. Some had 3. Thankfully no one was parked beside us so we were able to get crafty with the other back cleat. As boats go flying by the buoys as well as into the tie up area, the waves can be quite strong
-master bedroom was sooooo cold from the air conditioning. If we turned it up, the other rooms got too hot. Also super noisy in there but that seemed to work well for hubby for the white noise
-my son didn’t like that the pool only went to 4’ meaning he couldn’t cannonball in
-hot tub jets were aimed up and only 2 worked properly
-uncomfortable pool loungers
All in all, the place was great even with the cons. As long as we made use of the lake instead of the pool, the kids were happy. What we needed was a clean, nice place to stay at in a fantastic location and this place delivered! If we come back to this side of the lake again, we will for sure be back!
