Anderson Island Getaway

Very Good
Traveller Type:
  : The property is great! Very clean and quiet and we had a blast roasting marshmallows in the fire pit. The washing machine and dryer worked great and the water temperature and pressure were excellent- even if each of the three showers were occupied at the same time. The kitchen was stocked with essentials like coffee, oil, and seasonings. The game room is excellent and we loved playing the ring game on the main deck. Beds and couches were comfortable and the house allows us to spend time together but also allowed for privacy.
  : The driveway and stairs leading to the street were difficult for my mom who has some slight mobility issues to get up and down. A railing on the stairs and a packed driveway would have been helpful for her. Additionally, the kayaks and frisbee golf amenities were out of commission, not necessarily a dealbreaker but it was disappointing to not to have had any notice before we packed our swimsuits. We also had a hard time finding the best access to the lake without trespassing on other properties or through club members access. The dvd selection is great, but the player in the dining/living area was jammed and would not open or play. Also, we were unfamiliar with how the ferry to and from Anderson Island worked- a suggestion: Post the ferry schedule on the refrigerator with a note stating that it is wise to queue up for it (with a car) about an hour in advance. The dishes are sufficient for a group our size (5 adults) but we were hurting for bowls, spoons, mugs, cups, and baking dishes. It would be helpful to have a comprehensive list of kitchen supplies so guests can plan accordingly, especially with needing to go off the island for a proper grocer. The wifi was strong when we needed it, but had to reset the router once or twice a day.
