4 Mi to Main Street: Petite Weaverville Escape!

I rented this VRBO for my elderly parents who have mobility issues. The house itself was fine and was easy enough for them to navigate, but the winding one way road used to access it was difficult for them, especially at night. Next time I will be sure to ask questions about the external environment and access before renting a place.

The property itself is okay. It's a small building in the backyard of a home. Behind it is a four lane highway that is roughly 75 yards away, and quite loud. Next to it, is a neighboring yard with a large dirt pit and various debris, an abandoned trailer, etc. That said, the home itself is nicely decorated and well cared for. One issue we did have was the heater. There are three ceiling mounted units (one in the living room and one in each bedroom). You need to use the remote control to turn each one on and then set the temp. Our issue was that they kicked on and began working/heating but when we left and came back they were no longer on (set at 72 degrees). It was so cold inside. We tried using the remote again but this time none of them would begin warming the house. The lights on the units indicated they were on, but nothing. We would have called for help but...When we were headed to the home the first night, we had not received the passcode for the door. We left three or four messages for the owners but never received a single response. Finally, we used the provided number and called and worked our way through to the company representative that is paid to provide this service for the owners (who live maybe 30 yards away, right in front of this property). Once the issue with the heater emerged, we had no way of getting any help. It was 10:30 at night. We put extra blankets on the beds and were okay. Still, waking up to a cold house isn't the greatest.

The rooms were clean but not well put together. It looked like someone just rushed to put everything together. It was uncomfortable for 2 tall people. The beds were not firm nor was the couch. The outside seating was not comfortable either. The tv was not working well nor was the air. The road is extremely loud, and the noise machine wasn't working so we just delt with it. No cooking essentials so that made unnecessary extra trips to the grocery store. The road to get to this house is on a 1-way road!!!! At night, it is absolutely terrible with no lights on the streets. There was no communication with the owners, even when they saw us sitting on the front porch. We will not be back to this location.

The inside of the property was just as the photos showed. There were only a few differences and the differences were for the better. The inside of the home was clean and decorated quite nicely. As far as the exterior of the property, the vegetation was over grown, there was not a grill on the outside of the property (like the photos show), the yard had things strewn about (cinder blocks, old fencing/decking, propane tank) and there is a steep incline coming into the parking area. The home worked fine for the two days we were there.

Very nice home, clean and as advertised.

Very cute, comfortable, and nicely decorated.

We found the property easily, it was as described on the site. It was clean and tidy. The owners were very easy to work with and answered our questions promptly. We really enjoyed our stay.

The location of this property was ideal for our trip. It was 15 minutes from our son’s house. A very compact property but perfect for two people. It had a very functional kitchen with like new appliances. The bedrooms are tight but have large closets with plenty of hangers. The only drawback to this property was finding it, especially in the dark. I recommend going to a map program and look at an aerial view of the address. The unit is just past the main house. I had very little interaction with the owner as everything was as advertised. I will consider this property again for future trips.

Perfect little place to stay. Well stocked, quiet and comfortable!

Cute little place that was nicely decorated, just right for two people & close to Weaverville.
