Cozy Family Fun

My siblings and I came with our kids. The yard was a perfect playground. The house was warm and clean. Great space. The kids had a blast in the upstairs loft. Everything worked perfectly. Nice kitchen. Open layout. Would definitely like to stay there again.

We enjoyed our stay at The Cub House very much. The layout was perfect for our needs and everyone had their own space. There were plenty of fun games and the house is well stocked. There was no need to go and buy anything. Communication with the host was excellent! The house could have been cleaner though. The cleaning crew appears to do the minimum amount of work. That said, we would stay here again.

For our annual full family vacation, we chose this house because it seemed to more than meet our needs. We were disappointed to find the floors filthy under the sofa set which appeared to not to have been cleaned in months. The cabinets were very dusty. Our master sheets for the king bed were actually queen size, and when mentioned to the owner on the second day, we were told new bedding would be provided but it never came. The jacuzzi had alot of foam first use, and my granddaughter got a full body rash when she got home and doctor said it was from the bacteria in the jacuzzi. Two large frying pans were virtually unusable due to them being so scraped up. The ping pong table net was broken upon arrival, so that was not usable. We actually left a night early over our disappointment. When we told the owner, we were told if we had called them upon seeing these things, she would have had them taken care of. My feelling however is that these are things we never should have had to bring up at all. She offered nothing more than an "I'm sorry."

We had a wonderful time in this home. Everything was very clean and very well-maintained. Dishes, glassware, pots and pans were in excellent condition. The beds were very comfortable and it was extremely quiet and peaceful! We thank you so much for our wonderful stay, Jennifer. We plan on doing it again in the future. And it was so nice to be able to include our dog. He loved it too! The only thing missing was a pizza cutter!!! Thank you so much for everything!
