Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Condo was in need of a paint job inside. Walls and floors were marked up and dirty. Mattresses were terrible. You could feel every spring no matter where you laid. It shook every time you moved as well and no funds are invested in making it more comfortable. Scenery around condo was nice and quiet. Felt the cleaning fee of $45 a day was excessive and based on how condo looks it’s not used properly.

Get ready... so my buddy and I had Labor Day off and wanted to go fishing over the weekend... it was too expensive to stay on the coast (crystal river) so we decided to stay in Inverness (20-30 min away from CR) because we found this great 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom condo in lakeside golf resort. with that being said, I called up lakeside and talked to a woman about if there was any place to park my boat on the premises... she immediately confirmed that that would not be a problem and we ended our talk. A few days later I received an email about our check in details and my buddy and I were on our way to lakeside, when we arrived we found the door to be locked and a note that said all business and reservations would be done in the lockbox by the door. I opened the lockbox and low and behold an envelope with my name on it, with information about lakeside and a key to our condo... we anxiously follow the directions given to us by the staff. When we got to the condo we were blown away, first thing we noticed was a long enough drive way for the truck and the boat, just what we were looking for... we open the door and make ourselves home to a now 3 BEDROOM 2 BATHROOM CONDO, with flat screens , a kitchen with all its amenities, and a POOL. THEY UPGRADED US FOR FREE!!! we couldn’t believe it... best stay I’ve ever had. We would fish the mornings , swim in the pool after being in the saltwater, and then use the kitchen to cook what we caught... we had the best time for the best price.

Short Stay Nice Pool
The house was great our only complaint is all the beds are very hard. And master suite needs a new mattress you can feel the springs. Check in is at 4pm but since our unit was empty they did let us check in early. Check out is very early at 10am. Kitchen is totally stocked with everything (except food) but you should take cleaning supplies. There is only 1 small TV in the living room. And they do charge you 90.00 cleaning fee (I think that should be covered in your nightly stay) And they do put a $250.00 hold on your card for damages.

This place was very well maintained, very clean. My only suggestion is to replace your bedding's ( bed sheets,bed spreads, and the pillows which has yellow stain marks, also your towels) Over all this is not a bad place to stay and the price is very reasonable.

Private home with pool
My family rented a three bedroom private home. It had an outdoor pool with jacuzzi as well. Home was very clean, had all kitchen appliances and utensils for use. Laundry machines and dishwasher also there. House was private and quiet neighborhood - great for walking and biking. We enjoyed our stay. You should know that they will charge you a $90 fee for cleaning the house when you leave. No bed turn down, towels washed, or garbage taken during your stay. Note: I saw that there were apartment complexes (or condos) also there. Be careful what you book.

Wonderful Stay
This was a lovely home we stayed at. The house was clean. It was very spacious, mind you we were a party of six and didn't feel crowded. The staff was so helpful. It's close to different hiking trails and things to do around here area. It has horse back riding on site, which is very good to know. And it also has a restaurant on site. I would definitely come back.

Disappointed
The hotel charged us an additional $90 cleaning fee that was not included in the price of the stay. I wore white socks because I forgot my slippers. My socks where all all dark brown when we left. They would only give us one pod of coffee for a 2 day stay. Told us to go to Public. We had no kleenex (tissue paper) in the room and when the brought it to us the next day it wasn't even a new box. Had to ask for trash bags and soap.they only left one bar per bathroom, so no there was none in the shower. The website led us to believe there was a pool on property but we had to travel to another golf course and we were given wrong directions to get there. I asked if the pool offered towels and she said yes. When we finally arrived to where we were suppose to be, there were no towels on site! Our ice maker was broken nor did they provide daily maid service.... So disappointed!

Can't say enough good things
We absolutely loved our stay. We stayed in a 3 bedroom home with private pool. It was immaculate. I retired from the food industry and the restaurant serves the best food we have tasted. We weren't crazy about the coffee but the food is amazing. You cannot go wrong staying and dining here. You will not get more personalized service anywhere.

Spacious with a great view
Very spacious condo, high ceilings with a great view of the golf course. The balcony was very enjoyable for relaxing with a cup of coffee or just viewing the stars. The kitchen was well equipped. Air conditioning was very good, but I missed having ceiling fans inside the condo for air flow. I would gladly stay there again. The restaurant was delicious and I enjoyed the decor, especially the outdoor seating area.

A great surprise!
The condo is well furnished and included full kitchen, washing machine and dryer. In addition the owner provided some basic groceries so we didn't have to run out for food until the day after check-in. The big surprise was they gave each of us a guest pass to local golf club, gym, pool, and spa! A workout followed by a sauna was a great way to finish the day :-)

Check in availability is limited. If your plan to check in after 5 on weekdays find out where they leave your key. Weekends check in is very limited and Sunday closed. We had to scramble and asked some nice people we found near the condo area to help us. Otherwise we would had to find a motel.
