This stay was incredible. We had a wonderful time. The home was extremely well equipped and directions were very clear on how everything worked. When we arrived everything was very clean and ready for the week of fun! They truly thought of everything when creating such a fun family-centered vacation spot! The view of the reservoir and surrounding mountains was so pretty, the pool and mini golf and basketball court was a huge hit with the kids and we enjoyed meals on the patio every day. There was plenty of space and more than enough things for everyone to enjoy! We had a hard time convincing ourselves to leave the house to hit the beach! Will hopefully return someday. Thanks for a fantastic stay!

I can't say enough great things about Mo and this property. From the stunning one of kind views of Lake Hodges and the Mountains at Sunset to the property having every possible appliance and every perfect setup from the firepit to the pool and jacuzzi to the outdoor kitchen and other seating areas everything was so well thought out.Then there is the game room with all the throwback 80's games we grew up on like Golden Tee, Galaga, Miss PacMan etc.Mo was also incredibly responsive to any issue and he was a pleasure to deal with.The house was great as well clearly setup to accomodate a lot of people. Mo provided all the accessories too. Pickleballs and paddles for the pickleball court / basketball court and putting green etc.All the Kitchen accessories were amazing too, he has very imaginable device, I have never experience a better equpped house and I have stayed at so many.All the bathrooms were very nice as well with nice showers etc and so many tvs in the house.The house was so nice and private and serene with the amzzing views of Lake Hodges.
An amazing house!!!! We have had yearly family vacations for 12 years. This is the first time we all want to come back again. The house has everything for every age group. There was not one thing that was lacking. Sometimes hosts don’t leave enough garbage bags or towels or shampoo and conditioner or …. We had absolutely everything we wanted. The pool and hot tub were tons of fun. The kids enjoyed the arcade, chess, putting and corn hole. There was plenty of area to throw a football. The adults loved the view of the lake and sunsets. Everyone enjoyed the basketball court and pickle ball. the kitchen is well stocked with supplies, utensils, plates, etc. and labeled so you can find everything you need. The pool area has comfortable furniture and is a perfect setting for an afternoon. You can’t go wrong staying at this fabulous house.

Amazing
We had our family reunion here with age range between 6 months and 70 years. It was a perfect place with lots of relaxing seating and hot tub for adults, game courts, arcade and pool for teenagers and play-n-packs, cribs and high chairs for our two youngest grandchildren. Since we were such a large group, the kitchen and two large tables were perfect for family meals. The location provided beautiful views from several areas. It was also fairly close to airport, SeaWorld, the zoo and beaches.I can't say enough good things about this property and would strongly recommend it to large family groups. Thank you so much.

Great Property, Amazing Host, But That 10am Checkout...
This property was fantastic! It was well-maintained, beautifully set up, and offered a variety of entertainment options that kept our group engaged throughout our stay. The host was incredibly responsive and helpful, addressing any minor issues promptly and with a great attitude. We truly enjoyed our time here and would definitely consider returning, with one important caveat.The 10am checkout time was a significant drawback. While the property itself was wonderful, the early checkout put unnecessary pressure on our group, especially considering we were traveling with a baby. It's supposed to be a relaxing holiday, not a rushed morning trying to meet a strict deadline.Furthermore, most of our group had a long-haul, overnight flight that evening. Waking up early, spending the day exploring, and then enduring a 16 hour red-eye flight after a rushed checkout was far from ideal.We understand that hosts have schedules to maintain, but a little flexibility would have made a huge difference. Even a 15-30 minute extension, which is fairly standard in our experience, would have been appreciated. In fact, in over 10 years of staying in vacation rentals and hotels, this was the earliest checkout time we've ever encountered. Frankly, a later check-in time would be much preferred to such an early check-out.Overall, we highly recommend this property, but urge the host to reconsider the checkout policy to provide a more relaxed and enjoyable experience for future guests.
