We booked the home to get our extended family together with adult kids. The rooms were sufficient but use of the “owners apartment” made things less tight. The area was great for being in the country but close to the small towns nearby and easy access to Mass Pike. Our rating of 3 stars comes from several issues. The bedding is old and worn. There were broken appliances such as the blender/food processor, and more glassware would have been helpful. Towels and wash clothes were at a minimum. But one of the major issues related to finding of mouse droppings under the throw pillows and cushions of the couches in the main gathering rooms. We could here the mice at night. The second major issue was malfunctioning of the heating system. The 3 thermastats were Nest type. All were touchy to set often triggering a menu to enter a passcode. The downstairs thermostat would shutoff if everyone was out for several hours. We came back with the temperature in this portion of the house below 60. The upstairs thermostat serving the master bedroom was not functional and caused the heat to remain below 65 with the blower turning on and off every 5 seconds. Granted, the owner was responding to my VRBO messaging. He did send out the cleaning crew to vacuum the mouse droppings and provide additional towels. However it took 3 days for him to address the heating issue even though we were fairly certain something was wrong.

Our large family enjoyed staying at Jacob's Tanglewood Ranch. The en suite bathrooms were a bonus.

This was a great location for our family. We celebrated a Family Reunion and this was one of 3 houses that we used. All the cousins enjoyed the house. Jacob was responded promptly to any question that we had. Thanks Jacob!!!

The house was in a great location and we really enjoyed our stay. Toilet paper and paper towels were scarce, so I would suggest bringing your own if you stay here.

Jacob’s house fit our group of 10, with 5 bedrooms, many beds, and lots of space. Most people felt the beds were decent. The outdoor yard was great - lots of space for family games. Also, a benefit to have 6 bathrooms, all of which were nice bathrooms, with nice towels. So the space itself is nice. The reason we didn’t give our experience more stars is because there were a bunch of hospitality bits that weren’t what we had expected/have experienced in other places. Communication with Jacob was very slow in between when we paid and when we arrived, which made planning stressful and hard. Some questions took over a week for a response. This has never been the case for us at other places. There were no directions about checkin given to us - we had to text as we were on the road driving, hoping it wasn’t going to fall through at the last minute. When we arrived (after checkin time) the heat was not on, so the house was 50-ish degrees. There were no written directions about the heat for the house, so immediately we had to call Jacob for instructions. Thankfully he responded right away. After we got it set up, the house temp was perfect the rest of the time. It would have been great if Jacob could have used the Nest to start the heat before we got there, which is what others have done, or even if we had just known that would be the case. The kitchen is a great space, but the table only fits 6, so 4 were at the bar each night. The oven was hard to operate, but we were able to find a manual online which helped. We brought most of our own baking and cooking tools because Jacob had told us to not expect more than the basics. That was good advice. Cutlery was lacking, but plates and cups were ample. Jacob had said he would leave a thing of wood for the fireplace; paper towels were on the list of amenities. Neither were there. The wood is one thing, because we knew we would have to buy some. But for the paper towels, we were not expecting it and when we raised the issue, Jacob told us that getting the paper towels was difficult. In actuality, after we had paid to have paper towels delivered to the house, when we also discovered that there was no broom for us to sweep, Jacob let us into a small closet that was easy to access to get the broom, and we found it was full of paper towels. It seemed like he was just not wanting the extra expense to provide those. All in all we were happy to be together in the space. The hospitality piece was what was amiss.
