We had such a good time at this property. We went up for Thanksgiving and had lots of family time with our family that lives in Ararat! Beautiful views and so close to the BRP.
10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2024
My wife and I stayed at this property with our 3 kids aged 4-9 for 4 nights in Oct 2024. We had a wonderful time overall.
First, the property has 2 decks with the upper deck being larger. The view from both decks is a lot better than how it appears in pictures. You can see several mountain peaks. We had fun watching the cows graze at distance on some of the peaks through our binoculars. At night, you can enjoy the stars from the upper deck. The entire house with all its windows is architected for people to enjoy these views!
The house was well stocked with everything we needed. Bedrooms were very comfortable. A variety of furniture, a grill, and hammocks available for the decks. The playroom has plenty of board games and video games available. The kids had a blast.
The drives around the property offer gorgeous views of mountain peaks, farm lands, some wild life like deer. Especially the drive to the Maples restaurant.
A few cons: (1) the backyard is a lot steeper than how it looks in pictures. Kids cannot play there. (2) The telescope that's visible in one of the pictures was not there. (3) The DVD player in the playroom wasn't working. But all the pros make up enough for these cons for me to give this property a 5-star rating.
