Top Hotels Near Thousand Acres Lakeside Golf Course in Swanton from NZ$146

"While the property itself is beautiful right on the lake, the house needs a lot of work. One of the doors from the kitchen to the backyard would not lock. One of the door handles on the back door fell off. The hot tub required someone to come fix it before it worked. The pool and the temperature of the pool room are both set to 80 per the owner’s preference, which in turn makes the pool feel very cold. The hot water tank is not adequately sized for the house so if you try to take a bath in one of the luxurious jetted tubs, you won’t get more than 3 inches of water before the hot water runs out. This is even if nobody has taken a shower and the washer and dishwasher have not been running. There are also just basic updates that need to be made. Nearly every outlet on the first floor and some on the second floor would not hold a plug because they are all too loose. There are pieces of trim and the upstairs master that are falling off. The recliner in the upstairs master is broken. There are no blinds or shades or curtains on any of the exterior doors to the home. Three bedrooms doors to the exterior. Two of them facing each other. Imagine my surprise when I realized that you could see straight across from my bedroom into the bedroom across the balcony. I only write this because these are all things that I wish I knew before booking my family vacation. We ended up leaving a day early."

"Host was very easy to work with. Everything about our stay was perfect. Really enjoyed evenings in hot tub. Would definitely stay there again. Thanks"

"House was very well kept for its age. It worked for what our group needed. Plenty of space for a group of 10. Reason for 4 stars instead of 5 was because we had to shovel the snow ourselves on the driveway edge, sidewalk, and porch so that we didn't track snow all through the entryway. I understand the owners live out of the area though, so this is really on the property management company, especially since the snow was there for weeks before our trip."

"Beautiful home in great condition and wonderfully decorated. Great view of the lake. Feels quiet and relaxing but not far from things to do if you want!"

"Very clean. "

"The stay was appalling to say the least. The kitchen was unmaintained with ZERO cleanliness. There were multiple insects in bowls. The dishwasher did NOT work and it leaked water. Cobwebs literally everywhere inside the cabin. Washer and Dryer did NOT work nor were plugged in upon us getting to the cabin. Appliances were crusty, dirty, and smelled awful. Stovetop smelled like gas. Ceiling fan lights did not work. And the biggest issue of all is the thermostat did NOT work and upon calling Vacasa they stated they would call me back and they NEVER did, all the while it was -14 inside of our cabin. Not only does this have a risk of leading to hypothermia, but it was also a bad look on the company as they did NOT listen to our concerns. All in all I wouldn't recommend this cabin to ANYONE, not even my worst enemy. Steer clear of this cabin AT ALL COSTS!"

"Great girls wkend away! The keyless entry worked as designed and the house set up was perfect--so much so that given the weather we were cool chilling at the house instead of venturing out to see the area! We spent time crafting, playing games, catching up, cooking, and hot tubbing! The house was big enough if you wanted space to yourself yet so cozy and comfortable for the four of us to hang out together. The kitchen was much better equipped than your average rental (although a couple tupperware containers for leftovers would be helpful). The furniture was very comfortable and the beds firm but comfy. The hot tub was one of the nicest I've ever used--the cover on it was so easy to open up and close again. We'd definitely stay here again. Thank you!"

"Easy access to lots of fun things. About 25 minutes from Wisp and 10 minutes to the closest market. Good layout for the house. The 8th bedroom is accessed through the garage. The only downside was that the house had no toiletries or anything left when we arrived. They provided only 2 extra rolls of toilet paper and 2 dishwasher pods which ran out very quickly with 20 people. We weren’t expecting a lot, but it would have been nice not to have to immediately go out and buy toilet paper, trash bags, paper towels and salt. It’s the little touches!"

"Our stay was amazing! The house was perfect for our weekend! It was very clean and everything was very organized!"
