Eclipse Trip
We stayed for the weekend and into the next week to view the total eclipse. The home was a great place for our group to stay within the Village. The beds were comfy, the view from the deck is great, having a screen porch was really nice, and the kids really enjoyed fishing down by the lake. The bathrooms were well tended to, had plenty of towels and washcloths. There were extra sheets and blankets in the closets, and plenty of storage room in the closets or dressers. The washer and dryer on site was great to have. The dining table was a great spot to gather. There was even a backup coffee maker :)
There were a couple of things that could have made the trip better: the TVs were older and not hooked to the cable, requiring either a DVD player or firestick (this was not communicated beforehand or we could have brought DVDs or a firestick). During the stay we cooked most of our meals, and the microwave is a lower wattage - it took a while to warm things when needed. We had only a two hand towels and one washcloth for the kitchen for the entire stay (yes we washed and reused, but we cooked almost every meal on site in the home, and they dirtied quickly). There were a few other small things that I felt could have made our trip better - when I'm on vacation, I don't want to have to worry about home repairs or appliances that don't work well, I already deal with that at home. I think this home could be amazing with a few small updates (and more kitchen towels!)
