Villages Resort at Lake PalestineRental Guest Reviews

Rustic but not quaint

If you don’t care about fancy, tons of restaurants, outdated rooms/amenities, paying extra for a boring water park, then this place is for you. Getting to the actual room was a disaster, front desk staff couldn’t give directions to save their lives. No food worthwhile on property so bring your own food and lots of it! Water park was too humid inside and water was freezing! Just a disappointment all around. We won’t be back.

awesome family spot

Taking a couple of days off, decided to stay at this resort, and I'm glad we did. A lot of fun activities for the kids, a full kitchen and plenty of local activities to explore. Had a great time!

Great!

Relaxing stay. Great place for a family with children! Swim park is perfect for kids and the resort offers other things to do for kids! Close to a city for other things to do.

Nice and relaxing atmosphere

This was a great mini-vacay! It was a great deal for the price and to book last-minute. Hopefully we can stay longer next time or even invite some friends or family to join us as the space allowed for more people and was done exceptionally well. Nice quiet area, but also close enough to town to go eat dinner out or make a quick run to Walmart. Our kiddo had fun at the waterpark even though all he really did was splash around a bit (1 y/o), but it was enough for him to enjoy himself and be so worn out he napped until dinnertime hah. Definitely enjoyed the resort and will be back!

Hidden Gem

I've lived in this area my whole life and never knew this little gem of a resort was here! Came for a spur of the moment weekend getaway. This was an amazing room for the price. Plenty of room for me, my husband and our kids to stay and relax. The kids loved having their own bedroom and bath, and we loved the privacy of having two bedrooms in our villa. We loved the indoor water park. It was fun for the whole family and very clean. We completely enjoyed our stay and are planning a return trip in the near future, when we have more time to stay and enjoy all of the property amenities.

Fishing trip with boat

Our first cabin was on the Lakeside property. We had to use an inside outlet to charge the boat outside. The mattresses sucked at best! The hot water heater was not big enough to fill the jacuzzi tub up with hot water. There were not enough pillows, blankets, and sheets provided for the pull out bed, but they did bring us some. The kitchen was small along with the aplliances. Other than the things i mentioned it wasnt terrible all in all. Our second room was a 6 person cabin on the main side of the property where you check in at. The rooms were more spacious with bigger beds than our 1st unit. The kitchen was bigger with bigger appliances. The living area was nuch nicer as well, and there was an outside plug to plug the boat up at night, although someone stole my extension cord on the last day of our stay. The hot water heater still wasnt big enough to fill both the tubs with hot water. The matresses although bigger, still sucked. We had the swimming pool and jacuzzi right in our back yard but never got the chance to use it because the gate was locked everytime we went down there. Internet was okay at best. Even with all the things I listed, i still had a good time. Oh yeah. The tv they hang above the fake fireplace was only 30" or so, definitely not big enough for a living area that big.

Awesome and clean

Nice unit that we stayed in. (Beach Club, Bldg F) Was hesitant to stay based on previous views by others but we believe their review had to be on another kind of unit than the one we were upgraded to. Large space and appeared to have recently been painted. Lots of lighting as well as ceiling fans in living area as well as bedrooms. Outside balcony which was nice even though our stay included rain. Will return when there is better weather.

Our reviee

Huge room for the price, clean grounds, excellent waterpark.

Okay

Easy drive for a short getaway. Indoor pool during the winter is a plus. Property in general is outdated and could use a major upgrade.

Very nice property

Clean well appointed condo. Easy access. Kitchen well stocked.
