The Perfect Staycation Schedule That Uses Every Amenity in One Week
06.06.2018 | Blog

When you have a three-story clubhouse and 40-acre property at your fingertips, where is the need to leave for vacation? A summer staycation right here at our Little Rock apartment community is the perfect way to relax and unwind without ever hopping on a plane. If you need a break from school, work, or everyday stresses, we have plenty of luxury amenities you can use to create your own all-inclusive resort experience right here.
From starting your day off with coffee in the Cyber Café to enjoying epic movie nights in our 78-seat Movie Theater, you can have an incredible week-long apartment staycation here at The Pointe Brodie Creek by following the schedule we have outlined below.
MONDAY
Let’s ease into your apartment staycation on Day #1, shall we?
MORNING
Take this opportunity to sleep in! Turn off your phone the night before and do not set an alarm. When you wake up in the morning, make yourself some breakfast (or lunch) in your kitchen using your stainless-steel appliances.
AFTERNOON
Spend the afternoon watching a marathon of your favorite movies or TV shows. You have plenty of channels to choose from thanks to the AT&T HD Cable lineup included in your utility package.
When you are ready to leave your apartment, pay a visit to the clubhouse for an afternoon tanning session. There are two stand-up Tanning Bed Rooms you can use to get a glow going before hitting the pool later in the week.
EVENING
That evening around sunset, the weather should be perfect for an outdoor picnic. Grab your favorite foods, head to the Green Space, fire up the grill, and enjoy your dinner.
TUESDAY
Starting with Day #2, you need to get back into a somewhat normal schedule so that returning to work at the end of the week isn’t too painful.
MORNING
As long as you wake up and head to the clubhouse before 1:00 pm, you can grab a cup of Starbucks coffee or tea in the Cyber Café. Bring your phone or tablet with you and listen to your favorite podcast, sift through social media, or do some online shopping.
If you have an account with Tide Dry Cleaners, do not forget to drop off next week’s work attire at the front office. (Tide picks up and drops off dry cleaning at our location on Tuesdays and Fridays.) Your clothes will be laundered and ready for your return to work by the end of your staycation.
AFTERNOON
Next, we think you should catch up some reading. Who has time to finish a book anymore? We know you are busy!
But, with your week-long staycation, you could finally get to enjoy that new thriller, memoir, or novel you heard so much about. Go get the first few chapters down by spending a relaxing afternoon in the Library.
EVENING
After having a quiet, peaceful day to yourself, Tuesday night would be the perfect time to get social. Invite some friends over for game night! You can sip a few glasses of your favorite varietal in the Wine Cellar before challenging your friends to games in the Poker Lounge.
WEDNESDAY
By Day #3 of your apartment staycation, we would not blame you if you start to feel the need to check emails and do work. We want you to enjoy the rest of your time off, so go ahead and do a little mid-week brain dump.
MORNING
You can ease your mind even more by inviting your classmates or colleagues over for a short group study session or meeting in our Conference Room. Take the quick opportunity to get caught up and check in on your projects.
AFTERNOON
If you start to feel a little stressed, work out your aggression with some cardio. You will feel better after an afternoon cycling class in the Virtual Fitness Studio. The sweat will help wash away the stress, so you can go back to enjoying your staycation.
Head home after your on-demand workout for a hot shower under your rainfall showerhead. A bubble bath in your soaking tub would be just as nice.
EVENING
Cap the day off with dinner delivered by Waitr or Bite Squad from your favorite restaurant. After a day of hard work, you could eat on your couch for comfort or on your balcony for fresh air.
THURSDAY
By Thursday, the light tan you started in the tanning bed on Monday should have set in. That means you are ready for a day at the Swimming Pool!
MORNING & AFTERNOON
Spend all the time you want at the pool today – it’s open from 10:00 am to 10:00 pm. Take pictures, post them on social media (using #BrodieCreekLiving), and show off your staycation. If you get too hot, go cool off in one of the poolside cabanas and finish off that book you started on Tuesday.
EVENING
From 5:00 to 7:00 pm on Thursdays, you know what time it is…Thirsty Thursday! We have our weekly happy hour event at the pool on nice days over the summer, and you will already be there. Have a couple of drinks and mingle with your neighbors before you head home for the night.
FRIDAY
Wow, can you believe Friday is already here? If you have been putting off any errands, go get them done and cross them off your list. Having a completed “to-do” list will help you enjoy the last few days of your apartment staycation.
MORNING
You already got your cardio in for the week, so now it is time for some strength training. Go lift some free weights and exercise on the machines in our 24-hour Fitness Center.
AFTERNOON
Your dry cleaning from Tuesday should arrive by the end of the afternoon. Once Tide drops off your items, we will send you a text notification. If you do not make it to the office by the time it closes at 6:00 pm, you can see a concierge to pick up your dry cleaning.
EVENING
Nothing says Friday night like a movie and popcorn! You can have anywhere from one to 77 friends join you in the Movie Theater. Just make sure you reserve the theater online through your resident portal beforehand to secure the space. A concierge will make you popcorn while you select a movie from our digital library of over 3,000 titles.
SATURDAY
Saturday will be the first day of your staycation that you can share daylight with friends and family who did not have the week off. Do something fun together!
MORNING
Have you used the Banquet Room yet? Saturday morning would give you the perfect opportunity to try it. Rent out the room for a couple hours and have some friends and family over for brunch. If you have any questions about how to reserve the space, just speak to a member of the office staff.
AFTERNOON
Keep the fun going with your loved ones by heading over to the Playground for the afternoon. You can even play with your neighbors’ dogs at the Bark Park. Just beware – you will get sniffed and licked!
EVENING
Cap off your Staycation Saturday by bringing a couple of friends to the Sports Lounge. You can play pool and shuffleboard while watching sports on the TV screens. Order in some pizza or wings, if you like.
SUNDAY
You cannot be sad on the last day of your staycation. It’s Sunday Funday! Time to finish off your week with a sweet and simple day.
MORNING
Sunday is the only day the Clubhouse does not have the coffee machine running, but you can certainly enjoy your own coffee and breakfast somewhere else on the 40-acre property. There are a couple of somewhat hidden spots—like the Creek Deck next to Building 8 or the Picnic Area by Building 21—where you could sit and absorb the great outdoors.
Once your breakfast has settled, head over to the Putting Green to practice your putt in the Sunday sunshine.
AFTERNOON
On Sunday afternoon, feel free to head back to the pool. What is a “Sunday Funday” without ample pool time? Get social and start chatting with others you see there, too. You may make some new friends!
While at the putting green that morning, did you notice the Bocce Ball Court? If you have not tried it yet, Sunday is your last staycation day to do it. Invite one of your new neighbor friends from the pool to go try playing it with you.
EVENING
In the evening, settle back into your apartment and get everything organized for Monday. Do your laundry, clean your apartment, prep meals for your lunches…anything that will ready you for the week ahead.
Does this sound like the perfect week to you? If you are not a current resident, you must come see all these amenities for yourself. Contact the leasing team to schedule a tour by calling 501-221-3377.
