Precious Family Memories Made Here
Review Submitted: October 6, 2011
Date of Stay: September 2011
This was the perfect get away home for us to spend quality time with our parents. The single story and floor plan was great, comfortable beds and furniture and well stocked kitchen with dishes, glassware, pots/pans etc. Fully stocked spices allowed us some fun experimenting when we grilled out on the large deck while watching deer, blue jays and squirrels.
Although there were only four of us, the house did not seem too large, yet it would be a great place for larger families/friends as well.
The game room provided us with great memories of earlier years playing pool and we were able to get a few games in as well as Air Hockey. Cory even had fishing poles available if Dad hadn't brought his own. (Stream next to Fish Hatchery allows up to 5 fish per person - license required) The weather was great during our stay and the fans & AC really helped. We would like to return in the winter months and enjoy the beautiful fireplace in the living room. TV & Wi-Fi also available although we 'unplugged' from the outside world to enjoy the beauty around us.
Centrally located so we could make day trips out to Rainbow Pools, Yosemite, Hetch Hetchy, Sonora, Jamestown & Columbia, the Fish Hatchery down Priest Grade at Moccasin, checking out all the areas in Pine Mountain Lake (Fisherman's Cove, The Grill, Dunn Beach & more) and great spots off the highway to also check out. We always enjoy a good dinner at Cocina Michoacana in town, never disappoints.
We have stayed in many VRBO homes in the past and a few up in PML and have had different experiences each time. This was another great experience and Cory was helpful from the beginning and with follow up. We would highly recommend this home to others.
Two things we would have liked to have known prior to reaching the home:
*Bring paper products & condiments- there is a nearby store with reasonable prices but good to know before you reach the house. (Some places have loads of these items, others not so much)
*Construction on a new home across the way was a bit noisy in the front and the deck faces towards Ferretti Road which also can have loud traffic at different times. Once inside the house, you won't hear the noise though.
