Reviewer Comments:
Overall, enjoyed the cottage very much. Unfortunately, the primary bathroom barn door into the bathroom got stuck closed. While attempting to open it, the barn door fell off into the wall. Very dangerous and scary for our 1 1/2 grandson, as he was trapped inside. Would only recommend this property if the barn door was fixed.

House was very nice. Great location and perfect for 2-4 people. Although kitchen could have been more organized and bedding seemed old. There were no wine glasses, mixing bowls etc. I would stay here again, but bring my own kitchen supplies and bedding.

This was our first stay at CS, we really enjoyed the beautiful community.The ease of going to the beach on a golf cart was a big positive for us.The cottage, Southern Anchor, was great for the two of us and would be nice for a small family. We really enjoyed the lake view. The ladies at check in desk were very friendly and helpful. We hope to return!

Everything was great. The location right on the lake and the area in South was beautiful and no construction close by. We loved the South pool and fishing on the lake almost daily. The house was perfect for our family of 5.

We stayed for four nights. The house was perfect for a family of four. We enjoyed easy access to the beach with our cart, as well as, fishing right outside the property in the lake. The lake is stocked with a variety of fish (reds, catfish, bass) and is catch / release. We enjoyed the pools at South (two kid friendly pools) and really enjoyed being able to get lunch at the grill next to the pool. The property was clean and well maintained. Only suggestions would be for an ice machine (not a huge deal since they had ice trays available) and outdoor hooks to hang up wet towels. Would definitely stay again!

Reviewer Comments:
Southern Anchor was adorable. Location could not have been better. Loved the decor! Sadly we did come into a leak in the ceiling. The maintenance team could not have been nicer but could not figure the issue while we were onsite but I am sure they will do now that we departed. We did have some issues on storm day as it made the internet go out and we had to reset the system with different connections upstairs and downstairs. Also I'd include directions on how to use the ventless dryer. The tank was full and we didnt know why it wasnt working until thankfully google. Maybe some tupperware and a pair of scissors for the kitchen but overall, a wonderful place to stay. I'd suggest long clothing and bug spray. We've never seen mosquitos of this size that bite through clothing and we are from Texas. Also lots of ants on the grassy areas so closed shoes if you are taking a walk. The grounds are exceptional otherwise, I wish we could have been outside to enjoy the views at all times. Personally I liked South better for the stay then head to North currently for any activities. We made the right choice! Great for families or a relaxing couples trip.

The only issue we had when we arrived was no intranet the first night. I did call the office and they sent someone the last day we were there. It did start working the second day. The other issue we did not like was that you were unable to turn the A/C unit down but it was not a problem just made it a little inconvenient when it got hot. Everything else was great! The property and staff were awesome! Thank you.

Another great stay at cinnamon shore south, great cottage for a family of 4. House is always clean and had everything we need, only small complaint was not having ice machine like other rentals. The coffee pot kept blowing breaker and had to move it. Looking for a smaller house for just a family of 4 it was perfect.

took the family for a short weekend. It was a great house. Loved it was right on lake, and was quiet, clean, and perfect size and feel. We only had two minor issues - 1. none of the carpets had pads and were extremely slippery and we had a couple of falls. 2. none of the lights dim and there were no night lights. We contacted management and they advised they'd let maintenance know but no one addressed the issue. Also as a note - everything took place at North. We were okay with this as we had a car and drove to beach each day but if you plan on renting a cart - just know for basically everything including beach set-up you'll have a beach trek

Really nice space backing onto one of the ponds. There was easy access getting to the beach ramp. Only suggestion I would have is having a refrigerator with an ice maker. The small countertop one couldn't keep up with ice for 5 adults. I'd definitely stay here again in spite of that.
