Battle Creek family trip

Our family of 11 adults, 3 children and 4 babies had a great time. Plenty of bedroom and bathroom space. The house is on a very private cul-de-sac and beautiful inside and out. It was well stocked with paper products, dishware and towels. We enjoyed the hot tub, pool table, and the children’s toys in the basement and the peaceful garden area!

Great holiday vacation!

We had a large group of 24 adults/children and the house was more than enough for all of us! We thoroughly enjoyed the amenities including the theater room, hot tub and bbq. The hosts are very accommodating, respond to questions quickly and really went out of their way to make our stay special. Our visit was right after Christmas so the house was still beautifully decorated and even had a Christmas tree up!They had also left some NYE decorations for us and some welcome beverages!The house was clean and well stocked. Kitchen has so many small appliances which made our cooking much easier.Would love to come again during the summer and enjoy the pool as well! Thank you!

Great property, clean, everything provided

We spent 5 days at Paradise Gardens and it was lovely. Extremely clean house, pool and hot tub was nice. Loved the theatre room! And everything was thought of—lots of supplies and extra pillows, etc. in the closets. Hot tub was a little green, but we still enjoyed it in the evenings.

Amazingly private, spacious and organized

My entire family loved this home. It has so much room for everyone and the outdoor space cannot be beat. The backyard is completely private so when you are enjoying the pool, hot tub, and beautiful, woodsy area, you cannot see anybody. The house had everything we needed and the hosts were not stingy about anything (dishwasher pods, detergent, etc.) We will book again.

Wonderful vacation

House was everything we could’ve wanted, we were there for 8 nights. Kitchen is supplied with every appliance you could imagine. All paper goods were provided, which is rare. Coffee, condiments, a welcome gift of wine, and goodies were on the table. Pool was perfect and relaxing., and pool towels for 20 were provided. Theater room, pool table and game room kept the kids occupied for hours. Would definitely recommend this house.
