Nice time

This was a wonderful family weekend getaway. Unfortunately it rained all weekend so we didnt get to enjoy most of the backyard amenities (fire pit, the hammock, multiple decks fully equipped with nice furniture) or do any barbecuing. On Sunday morning the rain finally stopped and we were able to use the hot tub for a bit before checking out. The hot tub was beautiful and pristine and the perfect temp. The home looks just as nice if not better than the online pictures. The kitchen is well equipped and the very large pantry had lots of staples for your convenience. I love to cook and had all the tools i needed and then some. The fireplace was so cozy and the huge sectional was very comfy for watching movies. The hosts were nice enough to provide plenty of wood for the fireplace which was so nice to have on a rainy stay in kind of weekend. Bill and Lydia were also very responsive and helpful with any questions we had. They also provide a really comprehensive welcome packet with lots of helpful information and recommendations for restaurants, groceries, etc. In the house they leave helpful instructions on how to use the fireplace, hot tub, etc. Check in and checkout was easy. We had lunch at the Forbes Tavern which is within the Eastman Community overlooking the golf course and the food and service were great. We all enjoyed our weekend very much and would love to come back and stay longer next time and hopefully have better weather!

Hello all, We stayed in this beautiful the last 2 weeks of August and had a wonderful time. As. mentioned in other reviews, the house is indeed equipped with everything one might need in the kitchen, and has my dream pantry, which is stocked with all the basics, making it enticing to cook and bake. Very pleasant to not to have to buy floor and sugar and spice and the likes in a rental, and that's because the owners stay regularly in their own house, which, as some VRBO aficionados out there know, makes a house so much more comfy and homy. All beds were extremely comfortable, and all baths and kitchen are new. The house itself is built on half levels, which is a great use of the space and provides for amazing volumes. Plenty of space for everyone to have their space. We enjoyed soaking in the jacuzzi which was pristine, and melting marshmallows. A great vacation! Eastman Community itself is a gem. The golf is gorgeous and maintained in a state of the art shape. The lake, forests and surroundings are so restful and peaceful. Eastman aims to preserve the land and is not building left and right, keeping it very "nature" and wild. Went to one of the many beaches of the lake, how nice it is to look at a shore as opposed to mansions on a shore... The community also contains plenty of maintained hiking trails, as does the entire region really, no need to drive very far to reach a beautiful path leading to a lake, a stream or a waterfall. If you are outdoorsy, this spot is for you

Such a great family vacation! We all golf so it was great to have the beautiful Eastman links right there! The lake was beautiful and some of us did take a canoe out although it was windy that day but lots of laughs and fun. House is full of amenities and fun. We stayed 3 nights and no one was ready to leave. Next time we stay longer!

The most well-stocked home we've ever stayed in! Beautiful, comfortable, quiet location. Beds were so comfortable! Amenities fantastic! Great communication with the hosts. It rained most of the time we were there and it didnt matter! We had the BEST place to relax with our little family reunion. Absolutely wonderul home!

The house was clean, well-organized and spacious! Highly recommend. There is no a/c but wasn't an issue for us as the weather was on the cooler side. The couches were comfortable to sleep on but they are right next to the kitchen so that was a bit tricky for our early rise/coffee drinker. Overall, a great value to rent!

If you are thinking about booking this house, just go ahead and do it. The property was absolutely amazing. More than enough sleeping for 10 guys (the couches are huge and very comfortable and they provide air mattresses and extra pillows if you need). A perfect kitchen island for drinking games, a huge hangout space in the basement for billiards and video game setup, a great hot tub (and not the kind from like 1970), and a large yard for yard games. One of the best parts of the place was how well stocked it was. It felt as if the owners lived there whenever they do not have guests, as the pantry had any and all spices and cooking ware that you could need. Lastly, checkout was super easy. It was simply start the dishwasher and lock the doors (some places ask you to sweep/mop/dust/refinish the hardwood floors/paint the siding), so this was nice (though you should definitely still clean up as best as possible). 10/10 will be staying here again.

The home is beautiful! Nicely decorated and well stocked. Hot tub was amazing and ready to use. Pool table was great. Everyone enjoyed having their own bathroom. Dining table was big enough for the family! Used the grill as well and it was super. Our hosts were very responsive and I had my answers quickly. Price and fees are very reasonable. Highly recommend this location! We came in for our nephew’s graduation from Colby Sawyer and location was great! We had 4 couples and everyone was very pleased with the home. We have stayed at quite a few Vrbo’s over the years and this has been the most enjoyable experience! Thanks Lydia and Bill for allowing us to stay in your home! It made our long weekend a wonderful memory of this special occasion!
