Mrs

This house is very close to the neighbor. Many times the neighbor's two cars are parked right behind our car, because the distance is too close and it is difficult for our car to get in and out. When we checked in, the first thing we saw was that the stool was broken,and the ironing board is also broken.The dishwasher often has problems. We encountered it twice. It kept beeping for no reason and had to unplug it and wait for a while to restart. It was very annoying.We booked this house after reading good reviews,but our experience was not good.

Emergency situation at home…turned vacation

Our home flooded and our restoration company told us to leave for one week. We began messaging our Vrbo host early that morning and they replied asap….then made sure we could check in early. We went from a stressful emergency family / home situation to what felt like a one week vacation….a home away from home. Many thanks to our hosts for going above and beyond for our family.

Great Getaway Location

This house was a great getaway location for our group of 6 adults. The kitchen area makes it. It is a large area that allows easy interaction and enough room - there can be many “cooks in the kitchen”. We were curious about the outdoor space being in front of the property, but there was plenty of privacy.

Perfect family getaway

We had 7 adults and two toddlers in our group. The home is set up perfectly for families. So much space in the kitchen and living room area! Lots of seating, both indoors and out. Every kitchen item you could need is on hand. Short walk down to a beach area which was wonderfully shallow at this time of year and perfect for the little ones to paddle in. The owners responded quickly to my questions and were great to deal with. We are looking to rebook again for next year.

Sylvan Lake stay

The property is perfect for our family of two seniors four adults and four grandchildren. The open living area with huge island and lots of kitchen items made meals and hangout times easy. The grandkids loved the yard area. We will definitely be renting the same accommodation in the future. I needed to phone the hosts on a minor issue and Tanya answered immediately.

Great relaxing weekend with family.

After a minor hiccup with the check in door code, the hosts were excellent communicators, solving the issue immediately. The place was even better than expected— plenty of comfy seating and beds for everyone. The showers with body jets are awesome! Would not hesitate to stay here again, highly recommend.

Perfect Space for Family

We loved staying at the Jackson beach house. It was clean and spacious, the ad pictures didn’t do it justice. The yard is perfect for lounging and to enjoy a fire, the beach is a quick walk down the road - perfect stay, wish it was longer.

Beautiful Sylvan Lake Home

Mark and Tanya provide an excellent home with all the necessities. Comfortable beds, lots of kitchen supplies - we were celebrating a wedding close by and it was fantastic to have such a well equipped and comfortable home to stay in. The house is modern, very tasteful and bright and open. The close proximity to the lake is appealing as well - I would definitely stay there in the summer!
