Parkside Resort

Upon arrival, the Parkside resort appeared to be under construction. The office was unfinished and we had to go to one of the units to register and receive our code. The swimming pool was under construction too. Needless to say my first impression was not good. The property looked nothing like the internet pictures (and video) I reviewed before making the decision to rent this property. Once we entered the unit though, we were impressed that it was a spacious, well appointed vacation property. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of room for my family (4) to sit and watch some televison. The televison sets were very nice flat panel LCDs. There was one in the living room and one in each bedroom. THe kitchen was very nice and stocked with all the dishes, utensiles and pots and pans I could imagine anyone would want. The unit had two bathrooms that were very nice. Be sure to bring toilet paper, soap and shampoo, as the resort supplies are meager. One of the nicest features was a washer and dryer, they supply enough detergent to do two loads of wash. There was a very nice balcony with chairs and a small table, although the mosquitoes keep us inside for the most part. There are train tracks nearby, but I can say that I could hear it when I was in the unit.
