We had a great time-plenty of room with 9 bedrooms and although there is a small table and a large island, there were plenty of chairs and we had a good time preparing food and eating together and playing games! It is on the 2nd floor with outdoor step access, so older or disabled people may have difficulties, but this was the 3rd time we’ve stayed here. It is pet-friendly, although our pets didn’t get to come this year. Good location on the strip, but many of the local shops with limited hrs this late in the season. Thanks, Matt-it was super!!

We experienced a very serious issue during our stay. Around 4 a.m., a fire broke out on the lower level, reportedly caused by a dryer being used by the property management. The only smoke alarm in our unit didn’t go off until the upstairs was already smoky, and we heard nothing from the first floor. We evacuated immediately and called the fire department. One member of our group was taken by ambulance and treated at the hospital.Due to the unsafe conditions and lack of communication or support, we left the property after just 12 hours. No alternate accommodations were offered. We also lost personal items to smoke damage and are now dealing with medical expenses related to the incident.What was most upsetting wasn’t just the fire - it was the complete lack of empathy from the owner or management. No one asked how we were doing or if everyone was okay. The owner seemed more concerned about the damaged dryer than the fact that guests were put at serious risk.The property and location were lovely, but the handling of this emergency was deeply disappointing. I'm sharing this in hopes that safety measures are improved and that future guests are treated with more care and concern.

Weekend vacation

We had a wonderful weekend get a away! It was a family vacation. We roamed around town and went to the beach. The rental was very roomy. We loved the sauna I. The bathroom. The fire pit on the deck was a great place to congregate. The only thing I didn’t realize was that I needed to bring a blow dryer. Otherwise the place had everything we needed.

We had a great time! We had 8 adults and 6 kiddos and we had plenty of room! We had plenty of everything we needed. There is a regular drip coffee pot and one for k-cups. Many of the shops and restaurants in GOTL are closed in the winter. We would love to see how the city transforms in the summer!

Bachelor Party

I’ve stayed in this property before for a bachelor party, so I booked it for another one. The property is perfectly placed on the strip with easy access to any type of bar, restaurant, or shop you could think of. It also is a short walk to the lake. We really enjoyed our stay. I would like to add that the fans in the living room did not work, nor did it looked like they had been cleaned/dusted in a long time. Also, the fans in the bedrooms seemed to be sporadic on whether they worked or not. All in all, it was a pleasurable stay.
