We were celebrating a 95th birthday with 38 family members. The accommodations were diverse to house young families, couples, and families with adult children. The kitchen had all we needed and the large dining area was spacious with plenty of sturdy chairs, easily moved tables, and included booster seats.
We spent 4 nights/5 days there and unfortunately the weather was less than ideal much of the time. However, because of the facility, we still had a fantastic time!! Numerous family members commented on how wonderful the setting/resort was. The proximity to places to visit was also a major plus. The county fair, a nice golf course, a "rail-bike" group activity, antique stores, a within 10-20 minute drives!. As I shared with the contact person, if our mother makes it to 100, we will be back!!

Willow Pond Resort offers an exceptional stay with top-notch amenities. We appreciated the air conditioning in every room, ensuring comfort throughout their stay. Most rooms come with private bathrooms, and the houses are conveniently close to each other. The spacious kitchen and gathering areas, along with ample cooking facilities, received high praise. The resort features a beautiful pond with paddle boats, a large gazebo, and expansive grounds, providing plenty of activities for everyone. Our guests found the resort comfortable, clean, and well-equipped with necessary amenities such as a washer, dryer, and ample parking. Overall, Willow Pond Resort is a fantastic choice for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway.

We had a wonderful time in this beautiful location. We were 24 people ranging in age from 3 to 70+, and there was plenty of space for everyone to come together or to do their own thing. The kitchen was perfect for a big group. And there was a ton of entertainment for the kids. The property management was also excellent, friendly and quick to respond to any questions. We would come back!

The set up worked well for our family group. Everyone had their own sleeping spaces, but we made a lot of use of the large dining/common area, the outdoor pavilion and the spacious kitchen. Plenty of space for the kids to play outdoors and indoors. There were some minor issues (a toilet that ran continuously) but we were in close contact with the owners/staff if necessary and felt very well taken care of. Our group ranged from 2-86, and there was something for everyone.

This was the first time we ever booked a property this large. It was also our first attempt at a family reunion. Fortunately everything went really well! The property was perfect for everyone. The kids all played in the center of the property, always in view from the surrounding living spaces. We had plenty of gathering spaces for our activities, outside and inside.

We had 3 generations and 30+ people there for a week. It had everything we needed. Kids had plenty of space to play outside. There was enough folding tables and chairs for meal times. Kitchen was well equipped. The main house is older, but we’ll kept and comfortable. Owner was very responsive and helpful with any of our needs. Thanks for letting us stay!

We had our family of 25 stay for a long weekend and we could not have found a better property. I asked for an early check in and Chanie graciously said yes. We arrived to find the house stocked with toiletries in every bathroom. Toys inside and out for the kids. The paddle boats kept the kids entertained for hours. The guys loved fishing, caught a few fish too!! The property is huge and we explored every inch of it. We had so much fun playing kick ball and every other yard game you can imagine. The main house had a huge room to set up tables for game night. The fire pit was an awesome place for us all to gather at night. The set up of the house is perfect for multi family use. There were no tenants on the property as some people had mentioned in their reviews. We have no complaints about this property or the hosts. Chanie was responsive and polite with any questions we had. We don’t think the description of this property does it justice. We are hoping to be able to return!

Although my family made the best of it, this property is not currently suitable for rental and was not as advertised. There were other tenants on the property, which was not disclosed until after we arrived; one was being evicted and was visited by a constable during our stay. The property is deteriorated and in disrepair. The following deficiencies were found upon our arrival and reported to the owner but were not repaired. These include: non-functional air conditioner in kitchen; all other air conditioners were noisy and inadequate to keep the property temperate; freezers were not always operable; the outdoor grill did not heat, even after propane container replacement (the existing propane tanks had either stripped threads or had a non-functional valve); the middle burner on the grill did not light; non-functional/improper placement of smoke alarms; some smoke alarms had missing batteries; mold and standing water in basement; electrical system in basement likely does not meet code (one circuit breaker was tripped but owner stated this was to be kept off; we did not touch any breakers or wiring); three chairs were dangerous with one almost resulting in injury (we left notes on these chairs to warn others not to use them); many window screens either missing or broken; shower in unit 3 did not work; beds in unit 4 were rock-hard; cooking area in cottage could not be used due to improper smoke alarm placement; dining area in the cottage was completely taken up with a pool table, inhibiting egress; outdoor chairs near firepit were filthy; although owner stated firewood was available, we had to buy our own because there was in fact no firewood; shower door inoperable; the cottage did not have a deadbolt or other secondary lock; in the cottage there was an open key storage box with access to all the keys for the property, including at least one master key all of which could have been copied by previous tenants/renters; there were inappropriate security cameras in the interior of the cottage, including in at least one bedroom; there was a spider infestation in the cottage; the cottage had very uneven flooring; and other deficiencies. I am requesting at least a partial refund. In short, this property should not be rented to others until repairs have been completed. Please advise on what if any next steps are available for a partial refund.

Very Fun For all Ages
The set up of willow pond was fantastic for large groups and all ages (we had 5 months to 65). People could be spread out or close together. There were toys and activities for all ages outdoors (it would have been more challenging if stuck inside). The playground, trampoline and paddle boats were highlights for my family. We appreciated lifevests being provided and even some other outdoor and indoor toys for the little kids. One of the best parts of this property is the fact that you can sit outside and see kids from the trampoline to the pond and everything in between! Total supervision is permitted.
Be prepared for a glamping experience. There are some bugs, cobwebs and the water pressure reminded us of cabin stays. But overall the large kitchen, ample seating, and plethora of outdoor activity made our stay memorable and fun for all!
Chanie was very responsive and always available to talk to. She even provided supplies that hadn’t been needed before us so we could maximize our experience!
The only concern we ran into was the one on site tenant. We were not told about her explosive vulgar interactions with guests, until the day we arrived. They were explosive and vulgar. We did need to enlist the help of local authorities at one point. If you are going to have small children who are going to play on the playground I would encourage you to find out if the tenant by the name of Tina has fully been evicted. If not it is highly advisable that the kids are not allowed to play without a strong adult presence. Or that you wait to stay here until she is gone. We understand that some things happen beyond a landlords control such as the length of time of an eviction, however our children did run inside scared and our adults did have a couple very unpleasant interactions during our stay.
Regardless, if Tina is gone, we would absolutely go again!!

Family Reunion
Willow Pond was well appointed for our large family group. Plenty of tables & chairs & room to set up 6 tables in the dining room. Sunroom and kitchen nook provided room for quiet time with a nice view of the pond & property. Grounds were well appointed for all ages. Host, Hostess & Caretaker were very responsive to our requests. Unfortunately, there was an unruly long term tenant on the property that caused some issues. The Host, Hostess and Caretaker did respond promptly to our concerns. Our understanding is that the tenant was asked to vacate the premises.
Overall, we had a lovely week & thoroughly enjoyed the property. The gazebo was immensely popular with all four generations of ou family.

Amazing experience
Because of the pandemic we were in need of a much awaited gathering and this property was ideal for our family. With several separate suites, the younger grands & parents could enjoy undisturbed naps and the teens could be together and play games including pool. All while the elders enjoyed the other amenities. Also pond was clean with fresh water plenty of fish and boating.
3 paddle boats were in good shape and a 4th needing some repair. First class commercial kitchen plenty of utensils dishes and pots pans.
A/C units getting old but all worked fine.
Supplies of towels, soaps and TP were plentiful.
Can’t say enough good about this place and the staff/owners. Fantastic time. We will def come back.
Thanks so much !

Perfect!
Our entire family gathered for Mom's 80th. Including 12 great grandchildren. This was just the right place. The children loved fishing in the pond. We enjoyed fireworks over the pond in the evening. Had a campfire, enjoyed dinner in the gazebo. It is a nice place with only a few areas that need a little TLC, but you can tell the owners care enough to keep it up. Great place for children and adults.

Reunion
Nice property. Loved the kitchen layout, great stove.
One minor advice would be to add a little more large serving dishes and salad bowls. Other than that it is perfect.

Great Memorial Day Getaway
A beautiful two-building property with a lovely pond (with paddleboats and a cute island) near a small vacation town. The rooms had enough space and plenty of bathrooms, and the AC held up all weekend. Would definitely go here again.

Very spacious, perfect for large groups!
We had a group of 15 and had plenty of space! Could have easily fit another 15 comfortably! Great location close to town and yard was very big for outdoor activities. Highly recommend!

Our stay
1. As listed on Vrbo, there were 5 bedrooms upstairs in the main house, only to find 1 out of order. Which the host claimed to have noted in an email, but was no where to be found. That hindered our ability to host our guests properly
2. The cleanliness of the rooms were not up to expectations. Ex. Lady bugs and Dust
3 The Land owner kept calling us saying she saw us on the cameras doing things. We feel that this is an extreme breach of privacy.
4 The home owner called us multiple times, with un needed requests. ... IE we should call her before we leave... and that we need to take out the trash upon our exit. That's what we paid cleaning fee for...
We came for a vacation, though we feel as that we were baby sat and spied on. What was the rental fee for, if we had to give up on living space and being her cleaning service??

Wonderful!
The space was even better than expected! There was plenty of space to roam around and play, for both adults and grown ups. The outdoor area provided a lot of fun play and exploration. Chani was in touch as much as needed and responded to all our questions throughout the weekend. We had a great time and are so appreciative of this space!

Wonderful experience!
The house was very comfortable, space full and ready for me my family once we arrived. The neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. The landlord checked in frequently and also had someone on hand for any malfunctions appliance.
The only thing that can be approve is TV in the bedrooms but all and all we can’t wait to book this house again.

There was plenty of room for our family of 27. There is a big kitchen which allowed for hanging out and a group cooking experience. Also, lots of outdoor space when weather permits.

Other’s on property
We found out about the tenant living on the property after we booked. I was disappointed the pool table had to be moved and the other gas fire place did not work. We also had trouble figuring out where all the light switches were. A lot of the window shades were broken or missing. The house can use some work.

PERFECTION!!
my family hasn't seen eachother since before covid and we really wanted a controlled place without a staff or anything so we could minimize risk. we had so many rooms that every person could have their own room. we're a picky bunch and we had not a single solitary complaint. we were almost gonna nitpick and say no salt and pepper, i had to run into town to buy some. but by the time i got back they found it! my family ranges from 6 years old to 75 and everyone had a blast. we'll definitely be returning

Men’s Retreat
We searched for over a year to find a place that would accommodate 25-30 guys for our church’s fall men’s retreat. Then my mom came across this property. We reached out to Chanie and she was able to answer all our questions. When we arrived, everything was as it was listed on the website. Beds were quite comfortable and showers were hot. We plan on making this our yearly spot!

Great for gathering for large group
The house is great and it had a lot of rooms where can accommodate large party with privacy. We love the kitchen where you can prepare food for your group without any issue. If somehow eliminated mosquito in the property will be great.

Great location for large family gathering
This property is great for large gatherings. There are plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms and the kitchen is fantastic for preparing meals. The grounds are nice for outdoor play, but there is no internet service, swimming is not allowed in the pond as advertised and we had no propane available to use the outdoor grille.
