    Shabby and in a state of disrepair! I paid way, way too much for what I got. Lots of stuff is broken: the stairs going in and out, the shower knob, door locks, screens, etc. Make sure you read all of the reviews, a lot of them mention these broken things. The host says they will fix them. Well, they did not!

    We absolutely loved our stay here. The house felt warm and comforting, we walked in and felt like we were at home. We spent 3 days just relaxing in the cabin, mostly watching squirrels outside the on the patio. The jacuzzi was a nice extra to have! The beds are comfy, the living room couch was comfy. The heater kept us warm . The neighborhood is quiet and beautiful we took a few walks around the street. The view from the living room was perfect. The kitchen and bathroom had everything we needed. We drove into town (which is only about a 5 min drive) and went grocery shopping and had breakfast at Mama's Egg house which was delicious! I am glad we rented a 4 wheel drive vehicle as the post recommended. Our little car would have struggled up that driveway.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great stay! The couch is cozy and looks right out onto the deck, perfect for lounging. The beds are soft and comfortable and the hot tub is a nice plus! The driveway is quite steep though to beware in rainy or icy weather.

    Was worried about driveway based on some other reviews. It's a short steep drive, but a Kia Soul handled it no problem. Hot tub was a nice addition for relaxing.

    My husband and I went to the cabin and they said you need four-wheel-drive to get up the driveway but that driveway is dangerous. I wouldn’t recommend ever going up that driveway when we entered the property we noticed and extensive amount of dust debris, dead bugs. There was no coffee, tea or sugar in the containers. I have breathing problems so I had to spend the majority of the time outside or in the back of the house where there was less dust I would not recommend this nor will we ever rebook at this location.

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed our short stay here. The property is gorgeous and the views out the windows are beautiful. I loved waking up with the sunrise in the loft bed, and staring out at the trees while I woke up.

    It only has one bathroom. That's fine, it's what we expected. But when we got out of the hot tub to rinse the chemicals off our body, we discovered that the cold water knob in the shower was loose and non-functioning. This meant that to shower, we had to perfectly time a 15-second window before the water became scalding hot, making bathing impossible.Unfortunately we noticed this problem the evening we checked in, New Years Eve. All of the hardware stores on the mountain were closed for the next 48 hours. I raised the issue to the attention of the property manager, described the problem, and the property manager sent out a maintenance person the following day. There was nothing he could do. The tub needed a new faucet valve, and that would have to wait until the hardware store opened, after we checked out the following day.This made it impossible for us to bathe for our entire stay. We were upset. We asked to be moved to a different property, or for a full or at least partial refund so we could leave and check in at a hotel elsewhere, and our request was left unanswered until after dark. Their reply was to have the maintenance man to return and leave us a wrench so we could open the faucet valve ourselves to shower. They claimed ignorance to this problem previously existing, then we saw that someone had complained about this issue in a VRBO review one month prior to our stay. We have been offered no refund, or discount on future stays with this company. Avoid.

    My wife and I spent our honeymoon here and we absolutely loved it!!! Everything was so clean and the cabin was so cute and beautiful. The fireplace was definitely a beautiful thing to have during our romantic time. And the firewood delivery service was amazing. Thanks to the hosts for being so responsive during our stay and helping us with any questions we had they were so accommodating to us and we would definitely recommend this cabin to anybody looking to get away for a nice time... Super close to town and easy to find..

    We are Seniors in our 70’s. It would have been nice to know that the home was on a hill with many steps from the parking area to the front door, with no hand rails and no lighting. The lamppost at the bottom of the many stairs was not working. On Thursday night we had a dinner reservation in town and we both fell off of the bottom steps into the dirt driveway. Also, the hot water heater only allows one short shower before going cold! Also the cold water knob for the tub/shower is loose and stripped.

    Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The check in process was a little delayed since they sent instructions via text instead of talking to someone in the office. The service can be spotty up there so I don’t blame the rental company. The cabin was close to the town center which was nice. But that does mean your neighbors are close and you’ll hear people talking if you leave the windows open. The couch and living room were cozy and we were able to utilize the fireplace during our stay. The beds and dining room chairs however were lumpy, hard and uncomfortable. The shower wouldn’t drain but the restroom was clean (they said they’d fix that issue but I hadn’t told them till I checked out). Felt a little unsafe using the hot tub in the evening since there were no outside lightbulbs. There was a weird smell in the kitchen I couldn’t put my finger on but it didn’t really affect my stay since we didn’t do that much cooking. It is a pretty cabin and was clean. Overall not a bad stay if you’re trying to get out for a weekend.

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The photos posted are not a true representation of the house. The house is in sad shape and the deck is worse, I think it's ready to be torn down it is so rickety and splintery. Didn't want to sit in any of the chairs they (both upholstered and plastic) were dirty with bird droppings. I sat in a dining room chair and almost fell through! Sad to say it is the most unpleasant VRBO experience we have ever had. Manager tried to help but we were only there for 2 nights and survived. The hot tub was hot but everything else was so unpleasant we were afraid to use it.

    We stayed on a warm weekend in October, family of four with two young boys. We really appreciated the well stocked kitchen, comfy beds, comfortable couch, and great deck. Neighbors are very close. There are a few things that could use some updating and cleaning but overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The property manager was a little bit difficult with form submission, but we got everything all taken care of in the end.

A little confusion with the pet fee and was getting emails from a few people but it got worked out.
