Tall Oaks Resort

Our family stayed here for a visit to Kirtland area. Overall it is a great place owned by a cute family. This is a long review, but in short, we'd recommend it. Here are things we enjoyed and things that were neutral-- truly not bad, just things we noticed. We checked in late and luckily had someone there doing some maintenance work outside, he showed us to our rooms and was very kind! He told us about Kirtland Creamery down the street-- delicious!! There was a slight misunderstanding- there are 10 rooms and a common area- we thought we were the only ones there so we were playing the arcade games and chatting before bed when we found out there was another couple in one of the rooms. Tall Oaks staff/family took care of the situation, but just note that if you aren't renting the whole cottage, there may be some awkward moments with other guests. There is no freezer or toaster, both of which we would have used, but lived without. There is a giant fridge, 2 dishwashers, an oven, and plenty of kitchen supplies. The table easily fits 12 people and the counter fits 6-8. Two of the arcade games don't work well/ turn on, and the air hockey table never worked-- also fine, just a note. The beds and blankets were wonderful! The pillows were not. No one in our group liked them, they are huge. The bathroom lights are motion sensored, which was fine at first, but 2 or 3 minutes into the shower you lose light and have to open the shower door to turn it back on. Not terrible, just odd. We all said we'd prefer a switch. It is close to historic Kirtland and seemed reasonably priced. The venue is beautiful! We thought they could use a sign on the main road to make finding it easier, but GPS took us right to it. The family is sweet. Communication via email was a bit slow, but all communication was always kind and respectful. We hope the very best for Tall Oaks family!
