Ferrah and the rest of the staff made sure we felt right at home and accomodated all our needs and Ferrah checked on us personally via phone after her day off to make sure all our needs were continuing to be met. The Shores needs to give that woman a raise and an extra paid vacation. I will stay again but only if Ferrah is there because she made the whole experience without her idk what our stay would have been like. Thank you Ferrah look forward to seeing you on our next stay. God bless

Nice apartment
Very nice inside. Our only complaint would be that someone should possibly blowoff the front entryways from the tree debris…it gets tracked into the apartment every time you go in.

Carpet was hideous. Coffee pot had old coffee grounds with an inch of mold growing. Two baths but main bath only had a nasty jacuzzi tub and no shower. Pots & pans were limited and terrible. Windows had not been cleaned in 40 years. Unit had bugs, including scorpions. Office brought us a larger pan that had lost most of it’s non-stick coating. Unit has never been updated since it was built in the 60’s.

Poor maintenance
The property was clean and the deer are fun to watch. However, the decor is outdated with mirrors everywhere inside. The carpets are stained and need replaced. The worst part was the jacuzzi tub leaked in the plumbing under the tub. I reported it and maintenance didn’t fix it, just closed the access door. So didn’t use the tub because I didn’t want to cause more damage. When I reported the lack of proper maintenance to the front desk all they ask is if I wanted to fill out a card.

Visit to Austin and the Grandchildren...
We were amazed at how close we are to nature as we walked out our front door and having deer all around in close proximity. We had a great time, and we were comfortable and found the unit very clean (however it was a little dated)...but nice!
