Anderson Island Home w/ Hot Tub, Near Beaches

Reviews

• Great get away

  5/5

  The home was great, a lot of amenities were provided. We spent majority of our time downstairs in the gaming area. With lots of board games. Hot tub was amazing and felt very private. They offered EV charging which was also another great amenity. Many bedrooms for guests. They had a lot of things for kids- coloring, legos, as well as plates & silverware. Most of the things we needed were available for use. We weren’t able to use the fire pit or bar area due to rain but there’s lots of space! Very peaceful & quiet area. The hosts were very accommodating & responsive.

  Thank you for letting us stay here, definitely will be coming back!

• Clean, great house layout and location.

  5/5

  The house was clean and the beds were comfortable. The backyard was a lot of fun with the fire pits and hot tub. We had fun playing disc golf at the park behind the house. We left some discs since this was one item the house didn’t have that way the next group could play. The house was stocked with everything, games, outside games, sand toys, floaties, life jackets, it was very thoughtful.

  The layout made the house quiet and gave us several places to hang out. The dinning room is small, but the bar made it enough space for us.

  Thank you for the great stay! We really enjoyed Anderson Island. The museum was amazing, we are so glad we called and got a private tour during the week, very worth it!

• Nice location - uncomfortable beds

  3/5

  The location is perfect. Close to store and parks on quiet road. The downstairs and outside areas are nice with lots of space. The beds are very uncomfortable and loud. I emailed about this months ago as I had read in the comments and was told the issue was fixed but it isn’t.

  Hi Hilary, we're glad to hear that you enjoyed the location and the spaciousness of the downstairs and outdoor areas. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:
  -While we try to accommodate all guests' comfort, mattress taste is subjective, we're sorry the mattresses didn't meet your preferences.
  The bed frames are solid, secure, and made of metal. They were inspected in July to ensure everything was in good condition. For guests who prefer different sleeping arrangements, there are additional foam mattress pads under the king bed downstairs, along with trundle beds and other sleeping options available. The mattresses are medium-firm and come with 2-inch memory foam/cooling toppers on the king beds, which can be removed if a firmer surface is preferred. The bunk bed arrangements are clearly shown in the listing photos to provide transparency about what to expect.
  -We would like to clarify that, in our email correspondence from January regarding the bunk beds, it was not communicated that the "issue" had been resolved. Instead, we informed you that additional sleeping arrangements were available, including extra beds, thick sleeping pads, and three comfortable sofas, should the bunk beds not meet your needs.
  We truly go above and beyond for our guests and are confident that future guests will have excellent stays!

• Family Gathering

  5/5

  Our family group of 9 had a very pleasant stay - property was larger than it looked and accommodated all our needs. Close to the general store and the Ole Swimming Hole/Lowell Johnson Park where family enjoyed volleyball and swimming.

• Bacteria in Hot tub

  1/5

  Overall we had a comfortable stay at this place. But don't at all use hot tub here, as it has bacteria that can grow in hot tub. My wife got hot tub folliculitis by using the bath tub at this place. Its almost 10 days since we came back from this place, my wife still has very bad symptoms across all her legs.
