Great lay-out for a large family

We stayed with our five children and enjoyed plenty of space. The kitchen is lovely and the open living area is a great lay-out. The house was well-supplied with all we needed (paper towels, dish soap, shampoo, etc). It is a little musty-smelling, as older Junaluska homes often are. Good location, convenient to Junaluska amenities.

Thanksgiving

The good: home was very clean and spacious and the kitchen was a great size for preparing a big holiday meal. The bad/frustrating: one TV didn't work, heat randomly turned off twice (it was FREEZING), we couldn't get either fireplace to work, kitchen sink backed up (luckily we found a plunger). All of the religious books and items around the house were very off-putting and don't belong in a rental home.

Response from VrboOwner on 18 Dec 2023
Thank you for sharing your experience, we're pleased you enjoyed the spaciousness of our home and found it clean! We're delighted that our kitchen worked well for your holiday meal prep as well. That said, we apologize for the items you had issues with and want you to know you could have contacted our team during your stay as they would have been happy to help. Our local manager assured us that the TV works but it does not have cable. Additionally, the heater had its annual maintenance done recently and is in good working order but might have been on the wrong setting. To clarify, the fireplace is wood burning and instructions and information on who to contact are in the Welcome Book. We hope you will allow us the chance to provide you with a truly exceptional vacation experience in the future.

Our experience

The kitchen was a problem. 9 people were staying in the house and the kitchen was not equipped with the tools to feed that 9 people. One of the shower downstairs had mold in the shower and on the curtain.

Hannah, thank you for being our guest and sharing your experience! We passed your comments on to the local manager who had the housekeeping team check for mold on the shower curtain and they did not find any. They also inventoried the kitchen so that if any items were missing, they could be replaced. We enjoyed having you as our guest and we hope to host you again.

Wedding stay

We were pleased with the size and cleanliness of the house. However, we weren’t pleased with not being able to watch tv, especially since we’re big baseball fans and it was playoff time. Asked for help three different times and was told to do this or that and after trying everything, still not able to get it to work, we gave up. Definitely need to work on the tv issues.

Great location. Not happy with cleanliness.

Great location. The house has lots of space. Upstairs we had no issues however the downstairs level of the house was not as expected. There were long hairs stuck on the bathroom walls. A used contact lens was stuck to one of the cabinet doors. There were also a couple on the nightstand in the bedroom. Several blankets had been thrown into the bottom of a bedroom closet. When I asked if they were clean the response I received from the text number was "they should be". There was also popcorn in the pullout sofa bed.

Fantastic inside space but outside is lacking

We rented this house and one a few houses away for a large family gathering. The inside of this house is great, particularly the bathrooms and kitchen. It was also nice to have king beds. We didn’t spend much time at the house because the rest of the family was in the bigger house and that was the focus of our weekend. The one downside to this house is the outside. While there were two balconies, their view was obstructed by a very overgrown front yard and tall trees so I would not have wanted to sit out there and look at that; it also encouraged a lot of bugs to be close to the house. Would use this house again for the same purpose (basically extra beds). Would only recommend this house if you don’t want outside space (unless you check with the owner that the yard has been tidied and then it would be great!).

Oxford Lodge - Hey, that's OUR house!

When planning our work retreat, we decided to go to the mountains instead of the coast as it is July and let's face it there is a difference between 10-15 degrees and humidity. As I was searching for the home on Vacasa, my daughter said, "Hey, that's OUR house!" We used to stay in this home annually, but have not been there since 2019. It was wonderful to walk in and see that things were as we remembered. The beds are comfortable, minus the queen bed upstairs which is harder than we would prefer. Having a laundry room in the home is great as we did have need to run a few loads of laundry. Two separate living areas gave us room to not have to be with each other all the time. The porches gave room for us to take work phone calls and not be in each other's way. The large dining table gave us plenty of room to work and eat and not have to clean up the space in between activities. We do wish Mr. & Mrs. Squirrel the best in their childrearing. (Look in the tree off the top porch to the right.) And what would our trip be without a chance to "Pet that DAWWWGGGGG!" with the bear stool in the living room. I am thrilled we came back to Oxford Lodge and will look for it's availability anytime we are in the Lake Junaluska area.

Nice House

This is a very nice house that has many features to recommend it. It has large bedrooms with king and queen beds (mostly) and a very functional kitchen area. The outside table on the open second floor porch needed to be cleaned before we could use it. We tried to make brownies in the oven, but there was a large pool of grease in the bottom of the oven which we had not noticed. It started to smoke. We did a clean cycle on the oven and baked the next day. There are specific instructions about using only the closed trash containers outside the house, but these were entirely filled (three of them) on the day when we arrived. None of these issues were "I would not rent again" problems. It was a very pleasant house for the ten people that we had staying there.

Family vacation

Oxford Lodge was perfect for our family of 7 adults and 3 teens. There is plenty of space to visit and sleep. I especially enjoyed the kitchen. It was open and well stocked with essential tools. The only negative was the two decks. They would have been very pleasant, but were really dirty. Surprising, since the interior of the house was clean and neat.

Karen, thank you for taking the time to review your stay. We’re so pleased that the home was the perfect fit for your family. We appreciate you letting us know that you found it spacious and well-appointed. We apologize that the decks needed a little extra attention and have relayed this to the local team.
