We stayed at Sparky's Lodge in August for our daughter's wedding which was held at Chanteclaire Farm. It is 7 minutes from the venue so the location was perfect. The house is lovely with the perfect amount of bedrooms and space for the seven of us. The outside area is very nice.
My only reason for the 4 stars is the air conditioning stopped working and Maintenance was out within a very short time. Fixed it, but within 20 minutes it broke down again and the first night was uncomfortable for the second floor guests. The maintenance person came out the next day in a very short time after I called and fixed it. He stayed for a while to make sure it was fixed. And the rest of the stay was great!
The location is very convenient to many different areas of attraction. I would definitely recommend Sparky's Lodge

From the moment we walked in, we were happy with our choice. We had 5 adults, one who needed a first floor bedroom and 4 kids ranging from ages 4 to 12. The kitchen was spacious, very well equipped and spotless. The dining table was very large and everyone could sit at with adding a chair from the breakfast bar. The living area was cozy and TV had plenty of options on rainy days with Netflix. One bonus was two sets of washers and dryers. There's one set on the first floor in the powder room and the second off the basement on-suite bath in the utility room which was very convenient. Another fun bonus were the games and movies that were in the house for our use.

Taylor-Made also was very customer oriented. We needed more water in the hot-tub and they showed up very quickly. They also sent someone over on the last day to be our 'photographer' to take family pictures on the porch. They were very accommodating and pleasant to work with overall.

I'm giving a 4 on over all general condition only because the dryers had problems drying, larger, very wet items. I believe both the dryers should be updated. The washers did their job just fine. Another minor annoyance was the lack of kids programming options on the TV in the bunk room.

Overall, we would definitely stay at Sparky's Lodge again and would recommend it to larger families with small kids.

The house was very clean - great kitchen that had everything we needed. Nice to have linens and towels included in the rental. Only complaint is the upstairs bedroom were very cold - especially the one with the queen bed. Main living room and master was very warm. Overall a great stay- would stay here again.

We loved Sparky's Lodge. The home was spacious and had everything that we needed to make the stay comfortable. The staff at Taylor Made Rental office was professional and offered to help with locating things that we couldn't find. The maintenance staff addressed repairs and even showed us how to operate things in the home. We really enjoyed our stay.

We as a family were very pleased with Sparky's Lodge. It was very comfortable for the number of guests. Everything was clean and well stocked. The location was private, but still within walking distance to the stores. The pool table provided entertainment indoors, with the hot tub and fire pit providing outdoor. The back entrance had only 2 steps, making it very accommodating.
