Lounge at the Lake with 6 daily waterpark passes! Bridges Bay resort.

8/10 Good
"Nice, clean property, family friendly! Appreciated the great communication from host and being able to check out late. Only suggestions would be minor little things to make it feel more like home (have also experienced at other vacation rentals): more kitchen towels (there were only 2 for hand drying/dishes), a night light, pen/paper, beach towels, coffee pods, soap/shampoo. Also, the bed in the bedroom was too soft for my liking. Be aware that due to the structure of the house, there are no curtains for the top/A part of the structure so sleeping upstairs exposes you to all of the bright lights from other houses/windmill lights at night (there is a small curtain but it doesn't block everything) and all outdoor light throughout the day. Overall, a great little place!"

"Stones have fallen the outside of the building not been replace and some siding was missing. The waterfront restaurant refused to seat us near the water because some tables were not bused and they didn't have staff to clean them was their answer, even though employees were standing around, 14 tables were empty. so much for the waterfront. Would have been a great sunset."
