Great location, run down property

The location and layout of this property are amazing. However, everything about this property needs updating. It was not that clean, and there were lots of little things broken down. It needs new appliances and cookware in the kitchen, repairs in the bathrooms, new sheets and linens, and other small things that need more attention to detail. And some of the sliding glass doors had no handles. The bathtub faucet in the upstairs bathroom is coming out of the wall. The guestbook needs updating and cleaning out. This is a fantastic location and the house is beautiful, but someone really needs to go over all of the Amenities and fix things. Finally, it was not easy getting in touch with the owner.

A great Grand priix festival weekend

The home worked out well for our group. The furniture was comfortable. The location was perfect for access to town for the festival and our time at the track. It was nice to have a carport for our classic car. Plenty of parking space. The neighbors were friendly. A fire in The fire pit area overlooking the lake on the last night there topped it all off. We all had a wonderful weekend at Drift Away.

Great getaway!

We had a wonderful birthday weekend here! The location was beautiful, the hot tub and fire pit were perfect, and the kitchen had pretty much everything we needed to cook up a storm (and a real coffee maker and coffee bean grinder). The owner even dropped off a celebratory bottle of wine for the birthday festivities! Wonderful experience, the entire group wants to com back soon.

Home with great views.

I loved the location of the house. The main level was very nice. The lower level was damp, due to rain coming in through ceiling light fixtures. Beautiful view from the dock, but dock and steps need some work.

Beautiful lake and house!

We had a great time at this property! The location right on the lake is amazing. The house is spacious and had everything we needed. The location is very close to shopping, town, water activities. Check in was a little bumpy and I didn't know to bring my own bath towels. Would highly recommend!

Long Weekend Getaway

Our family enjoyed a long weekend getaway at this rental property. The location was great just minutes from downtown Watkins Glenn and a short drive to tons of other fun sights and attractions. The property had plenty of room for our group and great early morning sunrise views from the dock on the lake.

Best house and owner anyone could ask for!!

Nick went above and beyond to help us in so many ways. We happened to get snow but Nick was on top of it making sure we were ok and making sure the driveway was plowed. His hospitality and the bottle of wine 🍷 made this stay memorable for 4 couples who will definitely be back next year!! Thank you Nick

Great place for a group getaway or family vacation.

The house was everything we needed it to be for a long weekend getaway. Our group had a fantastic weekend touring the local wineries and hanging out in the hot tub. The house could definitely accommodate a family vacation with kids as well. Everything you need is available in the house, it was great.

Plenty to do at the property, we'll stocked with amenities. Area has many things to do. Tied up my boat to the dock, tied up the Kayak and float as well. Great mornings sipping coffee at the upper dock, evenings grilling out on the deck and relaxing in the hot tub later. I would stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Nick Sangprakarn

Host profile image
Originally I am from NYC. I went to college at SUNY Buffalo where I met my wife and best friend Tracy. We have three kids and moved to this area to be close to her parents after living in NYC for 10 years. There I was a building superintendent/construction manager for a small real estate company in Union Square and she was a RN at a large hospital. My previous job as a construction manager for luxury properties had given me an outlet for artistic expression through building and as a super I learned that there is a satisfaction in making others happy through their living environment. One great thing about NYC is the culture. Two things that are important to me are creating an environment of convenience and highlight the culture of my new home. I focus on providing small surprising amenities to help make you feel at home while at the same time supporting this beautiful area and drawing attention to all that the area has to offer. My wife and I also enjoyed putting together the activity book and picking out the wines that we give guests as we were able to suggest and support local businesses that highlight the culture of our new home. I appreciate clear communication and hate bargaining as a game, that is why the property I hope, speak for itself.

Why they chose this property

When I saw this property the first thing that came to mind was "breathtaking". One day I hope to live here but right now we have it to be shared. We love to put our creative energy into turning this home into a place not only to enjoy on vacation but to enjoy all year around. I find it extremely satisfying to put forward such an amazing property that can be appreciated by so many different groups in so many different settings. Every year there will be something new and exciting added on to this property. I hope people love it as much as we do!

What makes this property unique

It's a large place, suitable for a large group of a couple families. I have rented houses before where there are too many beds and not enough space, this is not one of them. I feel like the house is great to explore and you can't beat its location. This really is a home away from home.
