129 Walnut Hill It…read moredoesn't really take much to make me happy...and on a weekend getaway, I'm only really looking for 4 things. I want to sleep in, I want a hot cup of coffee in the morning, and I want to be able to watch TV during down time, and blow dry my hair after a shower. Renting this golf villa, I was hardly able to do any of that. First off - aside from the couch and rug in the living room, the whole unit is dated. To the tune of the 80s. The 1st floor bed may have had my great-grandmothers hand made lace sheets on it, and shades on the window so paper-thin, it was almost awkward to sleep there. The shower curtain with tie backs should be put back in the '91 JCPenny catalog they came out of. We pulled some extra blankets from the closet, they may have been purchased and washed in the same year...gross. A Macy's one-day sale would cover all the updating needed. Coffee maker? Junk... My luke warm black water wasn't going to do it for me. I get that this is a rental unit, but there should be some minimum requirements to meet before entering the rental program. (Put one of these on the Macy's list too). There were two grills on the patio...which led us to have hope at least one worked. One had a knob missing, and some sticks in it from who knows when, and no LP tank attached. Maybe it's time for that one to go?? The other (same brand/model) thankfully worked. Trying to sit down and enjoy a cocktail while your steak is cooking is another story... This bargain hunters gem of a POS table and chair set may have set the owners back all of $50 during a Menards 11% sale. Not at all comfy, but the clear result of a 'eh, this'll do' moment. Don't worry, there's no view to speak of here anyway...completely wooded back yard. There's a fairway back there, but you aren't going to witness any golf, only the screams and splashes in the close by pool. Cleanliness was also an issue throughout our weekend getaway. Though this may be the fault of the rental company, and not the owners. Most of the dishes and glasses we first grabbed were dirty. I ended up throwing everything I could into the dishwasher for a round of cleaning (and I'd thought I left cleaning at home for the weekend). The bathrooms were half decent, but visible dust, hairs, and other miscellaneous debris were evident on the counters, sinks, and tubs. There was also no blow dryer to be found. I guess I assumed there would be one, my bad. The towels all had a mildew scent to them, and were also thrown in the washer/dryer to pre-wash while we ran out for some groceries. Again, things I didn't think I'd need to do while away for the weekend. TV? Ha. There are about 10 channels to chose from, and zero wifi, or cellular service for that matter. Being able to disconnect from life is one thing, but wondering if you could even call 9-1-1 during an emergency is another. Standard cable and wifi should also be a requirement on these rental units. Everyone has down time during their vacation and wants to watch tv or catch up on Twitter. The Walnut Hill pool... Part of why we decided to rent this unit for the weekend was that it had its own pool (separate from the Owners Club) and since it was late July, we figured we'd avoid some of the crowd there. The pool area was nice, lounge chairs and patio tables with umbrella were not skimped out on. Though the one we chose wasn't in optimal working order, go figure. The pool water was cold for late July, and definitely needed a cleaning. The bottom was filthy, and I saw a band-aid float by at one point. This unit will not be on our list of future places to rent from.

But they gave us the rules of the limo verbally while standing in the dark as we got into the limo and didnt tell us smoking was prohibitted. They said "If you burn anything you will have to pay a $150 fee" so a few people smoked by the windows and they ended up charging us the fee without any damage. He stopped at an ATM on the way home without telling us and said we owedhim $150 for smoking inside. I brought it up with the owner because they never told us we werenet allowed to smoke inside and he gave me attitude and said we were lucky he wasnt charging more. They are listed under different names and numbers... OC Limos, OC Limoz, KLS Limos... Its all tehs ame people. Make sure y ou are aware of the rules before you go. Also: No alcohol is included, they have a few plastic cups in a package in the back no glasses to use. A few bottles of water and a few pepsi cans. Thats it.

For this little town in the middle of nowhere they have a really beautiful park here in Krape Park,…read moreReed Park is nice too. Both have tennis courts and krape has a carousel that they're upgrading for summer, fishing, playgrounds(with a fire engine) and a mini golf and disc golf course. I've never played the golf courses but I plan on it before I move. A lot to do here and the park district continues to update it and make it fun for the kids. It's recovering from serious flooding right now but it will be so beautiful this summer like every year. I love flagstaff and the waterfall and the twin caves and the rental boats in the summer. We use to come and feed ducks here when I was little but that is no longer allowed. It's definitely worth checking out!

The staff were all so very welcoming, and you can tell that they have figured out much of what works and what doesn't in terms of camp guidelines. The facilities have plenty to offer in terms of a parking lot, cabins for staff members and camp leaders, cabins for camp participants (about 10-12 bunk beds in each of the participant cabins), a barnhouse that we used for dance workshops called the Rec Hall, and a dining hall. There are plenty of hiking trails and some obstacles (I'll let you find those out on your own!) on them for those who want to be challenged. Camptivities included crate stacking, canoeing, dam-jumping, nine square, and I'm sure there are others that we didn't get a chance to do. The food was delicious! Natasha was a wonderful cook along with her kitchen staff. The blueberry coffee cake is heavenly. Other meals included hot breakfasts with eggs, bacon, and fruit and meals with roast beef, rice and corn, grilled cheese sandwiches, and vegetarian chili. I hope to come back here again! The camp for the most part offers girls and boys' adolescent and teen camps during the summer.
