Girls Trip Weekend

The property was perfect for our group of 9. We could have accommodated at least 3 more easily. The Cabin was nicely decorated and fully stocked with all we needed. It was conveniently located near the square and all the main shopping and restaurants. The population of deer was fun to see. We had a great time and would definitely go back..

Rest and relaxation

Jake's Hideaway exceeded our expectations. The housekeeping staff was friendly and informative, and the cabin was impeccable and cozy. Even our fur baby enjoyed a break from the fast pace of city life. Our family could not ask for more. It felt like a slice of heaven. Thank you for your hospitality and we look forward til the next adventure. not have asked for a better place to stay.

Family reunion

Jake’s Hideaway is a beautiful, comfortable, well maintained, clean, and quiet place. However, the communication between the property manager and the resort staff is seriously lacking. One gate guard actually told my daughter that they, meaning Coosawatee staff, dislike VRBO rentals. Also, the Host Fee of $355 effectively doubled our cost. We won’t return.

Pleasant get away

We very much enjoyed our stay. The property is as described and we had no complaints about the cleanliness of the cabin. The hot tub and surrounding areas needed some attention, however. It wasn't clean. This did not spoil our visit, as the weather was rainy and cool. Perhaps roof additions over the porches could be considered. The abundance of deer throughout the resort was a surprise. We enjoyed watching them. But a forewarning on the property description might be considered.

Jake's Hideaway

The cabin was cute and clean, the hot tub was wonderful. Kitchen is pretty small for a group of 6-7. Better lighting in the great room (kitchen and living room area would be good, it was pretty dim.The problem we had was that two of us had to park down the hill to make room for other cars, there was no warning that 4-wheel drive might be needed to get back up. I tried 3 times to get my car up the hill to the driveway and kept sliding back down, the gravel gave no purchase. Finally someone was able to get the car up although it caused some gravel to spray, but it was a real issue. I was happy we didn't have to call AAA or a tow truck. Other than that we enjoyed our stay.

The cabin is outdated, and honestly not as clean as other places I've stayed.The beds are hard as rocks and the pillows are thin as paper.The 2 cooking knives are so dull, I could barely cut through avocado skin.Having an extension cord running across the living room is a tripping hazard, even though it's covered up.The light switches should be labeled. I could never get one of the remote for the fans to work, even though I changed the battery.

Great place to stay!

There were 4 couples and there was plenty of room and we really enjoyed it! The only downside was the water is Luke warm and lasts about 3 or 4 quick showers before it becomes ice cold. We enjoyed the pool table and had a great time!
