Perfect fit!

5 of 5
Submitted: January 24, 2010 Stayed: January 2010
My college Christian fellowship had a weekend retreat at Timberlane and we had a fabulous time. The house was equipped with so many beds that it was able to squeeze in all of us. The location couldn't have been any better, as the house was literally feet from the lake, equipped with its own boat dock. The kitchen was spacious and equipped with many cooking supplies so we were able to cook for large quantities of people. We had a ton of fun and it was very pleasant to work with Scott, the owner. Thanks for a wonderful weekend!

NOT HANDICAPPED FRIENDLY

1 of 5
Submitted: September 10, 2012 Stayed: August 2012
DISAPPOINTING & overpriced. This house is not HANDICAP friendly. We needed specific handicapped accessability & expressed those needs to the owner. Imagine our surprise upon our arrival to find a SUNKEN LIVING ROOM. My scooter & nephews wheelchair do not navigate an 8 inch drop very well. We are both confined 24/7 to our mechanical devices. I was confined to the kitchen, dining room, bedroom & hallway, which the hallway is very narrow & I had to be shifted to an alternate scooter in order to use the bathroom or go to bed. The outside ramp to the lower level is too steep & in my estimation unsafe, although the cement walkway to the dock was convienent. I would not reccomend this home to anyone; the furnishings & interior of the home are not well maintained at all, it is tired & needs to be completely redone.
Owner's Response: We are sorry to hear that your stay did not meet your expectations. Because it did not meet your expectations, it did not meet ours. We take pride in our home and have worked hard to make sure it is in excellent repair, furnishings are updated and more than fully furnished and equipped to accommodate our guests well. We have received excellent feedback from our other guests this summer, many who returned from previous years and re-booked already for next year. Our website www.timberlaneretreat.com features dozens of additional reviews from current and prior guests. Additionally, this house has accommodated many who have required wheelchair or walker access and we will happily provide photos of the 2-3 steps leading into the house, living room and extra-wide access into the master bath. We have recently upgraded the 55" flat screen and leather furnishings in both the upstairs and downstairs living rooms.

Unforgettable week!

5 of 5
Submitted: July 14, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
We had a magical week at Timberlake. It was the perfect place to bring together three families with seven kids. There enough space for everyone to do their own thing, but nice big common spaces for us all to be together. I especially enjoyed early morning kayak rides each day. And the kids jumped off the deck hundreds of times! I recommend bringing high quality life vests for everyone as it makes hanging out in the lake more relaxing. Thanks Scott for a wonderful week that we will remember forever!

Awesome Place! Thanks Scott!

Scott,

Just wanted to send an email thanking you for providing us with a great place to stay on Lake Gaston. Our family had a great time and loved everything about the house. The weather was great and we really enjoyed the dock especially the high platform! Looking forward to planning future vacations with you.


Thanks again,


Jamie

2012 Family Gathering

3 of 5
Submitted: June 21, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
Over all our experience was positive. We had poor cell phone availability.
The walk from the house to the boat house was steep, It would be very difficult to use a wheelchair or a walker on the walkway. The furnishings were tired, except
for the beds. Make sure you ask what beds are in each room.We were going to
be 17 people ,but the sleeping arrangements wouldn't work out.
The directions could have been clearer. Look for 'Eaton Ferry Estates" sign.
Great BBQ grill, plenty of hot water, GREAT VIEW.
Owner's Response: We are glad you enjoyed your stay.

Continuing to make the Guest experience a positive one and in addition to the Verizon and AT&T cell service in the area, we have provided free WiFi and Cable. If your cell service provider is other than Verizon and AT&T we have provided for free/unlimitied long distance phone service at the house. We always check in with our Guests within 1-2 days of arrival to insure that their questions are answered and any issues are quickly dealt with.

We have just upgraded our sofas to nice leather. Addressing the 2 steps into the house for any handicapped guests is generally done by a portable ramp, numerous guests have done this with ease by utilizing the convenient access into the kitchen area from the covered and available garage. We have also insured a smooth pathway all the way from the house/driveway to the dock via a 100% cement walkway with no steps, dirt or gravel paths.

Over the 7 years we have rented this home we have found the accomodations are perfect for several generations and large family gatherings. We have accomodated the adults with large Queen and King size beds and the kids using numerous bunks in their own rooms and on their own floor. Additionally, we continue to provide an email package with detailed instructions, directions and a Google map showing not only the precise location of the house/property, boat ramps, but all major places of business as well(e.g. grocery, marina, boat repair, etc).

Again making the Guest experience is our top priority. Thanks for the feedback. We will make sure this information is well covered in our pre-checkin communication!
