We stayed at this unit with another family and found it comfortable and clean. Schaffers Mill grounds are beautiful, food was great and kids had a great time.

Reviewer Comments:
The shower door in the first-floor master is not aligned as it hits the fixed glass. Also, the dead bolt lever for the garbage room door is on the exterior of the door, which allows entry into the room and adjacent garage by any visitor.
Schaffer's Mill management, revised our bookimg from 4 bed to 3 bed. Big difference. Admitted fault, but did not take responsibility. Before our 4th night owner came to the property, we had to leave. Because he too was confused, why we were there. We requested for compensation thru VRBO. Schaffer's Mill refused. VRBO has no power over schaffer's mill management even though transaction was fraudulent. This is fraud. All VRBO can do is send a letter of request on behalf of you. So if you and your family have to spend a vacation, consult a legal advice first, because you might end up like us.
