Like a theme park in a vacation house!
We were looking for a rental house “staycation” to take our nine year old son, where he could have the fun of a theme park. And it wasn’t easy to find. So I was so grateful that I found the Sweet Escape.
It has so many amazing things: miniature golf, arcade games, video games, huge disco room, karaoke, virtual reality, small laser tag room, Theater, disc golf, pool with slide, volleyball, playground, human Candyland and of course all the really cool desert themed rooms. So we never ran out of things to do. And Andrew was very helpful and accommodating.
There are two separate houses: the main house and the guest house. Both have kitchens (which is really helpful for a bigger group than we were). The property is huge too: I’m guessing 5 acres.

Enjoyed our stay
Our family really enjoyed our stay at the Sweet Escape. Plenty to do for all the family grown up and kids. The Pinball machine needs to be repaired with a few pieces having fallen loose under the glass which results in the ball getting stuck. Also, I had trouble finding a comfortable bed, but my back can be a bit picky. The managers of the property are very kind and attentive. They acted quickly to get anything fixed or addressed that came up. Definitely would recommend as a nice get away for a family or large group.

The Sweet Escape
Overall, we could not have asked for a greater spot to have a family vacation. The ice-cream shaped pool was definitely the crowning jewel and a place all of the family made the most memories. The one down spot we found was the sleeping arrangements. The homes are listed to sleep around 50 people if need be. We had 40, including three babies. We had to buy a pack-and-play and leave it there as there were only two furnished. Also, the main beds were comfortable but the roll-away beds and the couch pull out beds are in terrible condition...the springs missing or sticking out, the mattresses very uncomfortable. I would give this place a triple A rating if they only put a little more attention to all of the beds they advertise as in good condition. They were very easy to work with when a problem arose and tried to work it out quickly. One more bathroom in the main house for as many people as we had would have been perfect....all in all, we were very happy with our stay. The grandchildren loved it!
The idea is cute but I feel like being sweet Escapes with a candy theme there should be more working candy machines instead of all just decor. The water said harmless but tasted like chlorine so should probably let people know to bring bottle water. Property was clean with lots of bedrooms. Overall a fun time had by all...

Cute, fun home for large groups
The communication and the response helpfulness and speediness were wonderful - couldn't ask for better. Property has all the things described. For us I would just say that the hardest thing to overcome was that the property didn't meet expectations (which may have been our fault) for the price. I was expecting a luxury property - like a nice hotel but with a cool, fun factor. We have a large family so we always stay at homes versus hotels often and have consistently good experiences. But this property - while lots of stuff to do was like staying at a standard hotel. Great for large groups - would be fun with 3-4 families. Would be nice if instead of fake stuff everywhere there was an option for real stuff - real pies, real candy, etc (maybe they did and I missed it). Would be nice if small things like shampoo/conditioner were like a nicer hotel. We struggled with things like various things not working (though the signs and instructions were wonderful), bugs in beds/rooms, bathing in sulfur water (was fixed on day 2 quickly after we told them), stickers in the yard, etc. Stuff is a little worn down - which makes sense given how often it's booked. So overall - if you have multiple families, little kids, just want a place to chill - I think it's great and can be economical spread across. If you want to take your family on a luxury retreat then not as much. It's not that I wouldn't book one of the homes again (in fact the kids have asked about booking one of the others) I would just have different expectations and a different plan and then all would match and be fine!

Five perfect days for a big family
We had our first and ever family reunion in Sweet Escape, and nobody wanted it to finish.
We are 7 siblings from one side, and 3 from the other, each of us with kids from 6 months up to 21 year old no-so-much-kid, plus grandpa, we were 40+
And everybody was confortable there, every age group had things to do at any time of the day/night
it's a guarantee 24x7 fun place for every single family.

Sweet Escapes was a perfect place for our family reunion!
We had 12 adults and 16 kids, and there were so many beds we never even used. This place CAN really sleep up to 52 comfortably. I personally liked having a guest house separately from the main house, because I have young children and could put them to bed at the guest house and not have to worry about the night owls waking them up. (And we used WiFi video monitors to check on the kids while we went back to the main house.) The kids loved all of the activities, especially the free video games. The ball pit room and laser tag room were also big hits. The owner responded immediately to any questions or problems we had, and resolved any issues within the day. I would recommend this to property to any large group looking for a place to vacation.

best vacation home EVER
This home was by far the best experience my family and I ever had. Everything was perfect , the rooms , space , and pool. All my kids enjoyed it especially the adults. The rooms were breath taking! I didn't get a single complaint from my picky kids. I would most definitely recommend this house to any family who is looking for the time of their life. Great customer service, especially the owner. Till this day My Family Hasn't Stopped Talking about How Wonderful This Home was.
