Perfect family cottage in Pines - 2 acre farm!

The cabin was not clean when our party arrived - it made for a stressful evening getting pictures sent to the host, and coordinating when someone could get in and clean the cabin. Floors were not vacuumed, bathrooms were not clean, trashcan was half full and towels were still in the washer/dryer. The heat in the cabin was also not working and it was 58 degrees inside. The host, Kim, was quick and easy to connect with, and after sharing photos with her, she contacted her cleaning crew and was able to get them in the next day in the morning. She also refunded our cleaning fee. The cabin had the space we needed for everyone to have their own bedroom, which was nice.

The stay was fine but the home is need of lots of updates and a good deep cleaning. For the price it was fine. But if the price had been 500 more I would have been on the phone the first day. It's great but needs lots work.

Big house with a really large backyard. Not fancy by any means but served it's purpose. The house could use a few things updated and maintained but nothing that would prevent us from staying there again. Very quiet area, easy to get into and great communication with the host.

This place has potential! The owner was available through text but doesnt seem to know much about the property. All the reviews about cleanliness are true, it needs to be cleaned. I read every review before booking, and chose to give it a chance. It was the perfect location for our family reunion, our grandmother lives right around a couple corners from this house. It was a do-able price for all of us to pitch in on. It had enough bathrooms and bedrooms for all of us to share. It had a nice open livingroom with 3 couches for the kids to spread out. The tv has no account, so we used our own disney log in. We weren't excited about having to clean the first thing after getting there. We all drove 2 days, seperate routes and met up at this cabin. We didnt deep clean the whole house, only partially cleaned the things we needed. Toilets, showers, kitchen, tables, ect. The vacuum wasn't working so we swept what we could off the carpets. This 3 floor home only has a single window AC in the dining room/livingroom. The top floor gets very warm. They did supply fans for all the rooms. The top two rooms had 3 fans each and it still got hot. The 2 oldest kids think the place is haunted lol, their rooms door kept shutting and locking. I had it happen while I was in their room trying to calm them. It was odd. The lock is a push button lock too. They ended up sleeping downstairs lol. Not allowed to upload photos here for some reason. If they fix/clean everything, we wont mind coming back.

VRBO advertised photos of this cabin are most likely the original photos from 2018 as the maintenance and caring of this place has obviously declined since. Unfortunately for us, on our check-in day we had to clean the house, wash sheets, towels, and comforters (at a local laundromat as their dryer was not doing the job) and disinfect beds with fabric Lysol. The mattress covers were full of stains and our master bedroom mattress cover had blood stains on it. Walls and baseboards were dirty, all carpets were full of stains, underneath the couches and their pillow cushions there were crumbs everywhere and it wasn’t vacuumed. The landscaping has not been kept up as there was overgrowth everywhere. We were able to smell the dust and dirtiness in the air the second we walked in. The oven and refrigerator were dirty. I cleaned the refrigerator but did not try to use the oven. This place definitely needs a deep, deep cleaning. The two upstairs bedrooms do not have AC which made it uncomfortable to take a nap during the day even with the fans on. It would be nice if each room had their own window and or portable AC unit to keep it cool during the day. However, once we cleaned we made it work, there were no other rentals available to house our group size that week or else we would have left. Our experience would’ve been way better if the place would’ve been nice and clean because it’s big and in a great location. Our host, Kim, was very responsive and returned our cleaning fee.

A rustic modern type feel with beautiful scenery and fresh air. A chance to experience the woods and view my husky in her most natural state. Me and my new husband are very happy with our experience and plan to come back when we can.

We felt such a sense of comfort in this spacious cabin! We have a large family and lively pups that all enjoyed a fantastic Thanksgiving holiday in the forest. What a lovely stay, and plenty of room for all. The neighborhood is great, and close to the wilderness, but also close to fun restaurants for nights out. We felt cozy and welcome, and overall had a great time. Thank you!

very nice fire pit in the backyard.

Loved the property space, my grandkids and dogs had a blast running around in the backyard!! Communication with owners was flawless and very accommodating and the house was big enough for our family of 6 with rooms to spare. The house is older and needing some updates but overall I highly recommend !!

Solid spot to host but the listing portrays the home as being very secluded, but the home is just in a neighborhood with a large front and backyard
