Loved The Wheelhouse
The house was comfortable and the front porch was a great spot, even with 2 rainy days. There were plenty of games to keep us occupied and the location was great. Quiet, welcoming Neighborhood a short walk from downtown. Highly recommend!

Needs some work
Needs a more thorough cleaning and they could use some furniture updates. Living room is not comfortable. Liked the stove in the living room.
Nice location, but non-working entry combination. Used hidden key after calling customer service.
Very few cooking utencils, no scissors, ony 3 eating bowls.

Thank you, Marci, for your feedback! We are happy you enjoyed this home. We sincerely apologize for the issues you have encountered during your stay. We will continue to work with both our local staff and homeowner to make improvements to this home, and we hope you'll give us a second chance to impress you!
The location was really great, short walk for coffee each morning. The neighborhood was very quiet and everyone was friendly. We found the house more spacious than the pictures show. Having a small yard was good for the kids.
The kitchen could use some more cooking tools. We tend cook instead of going out to eat every meal. Vacasa was difficult to deal with. I had to call a call center then they contacted the local people who gave an answer, then the call center got back to me. I was told I cannot contact the local people myself. Unfortunately, I don't think there is any way to rent without dealing with them. Overall, we were happy and enjoyed our stay.

Camden Wheelhouse
House was decorated to really complement the area. Beds were super comfortable and house has a cozy living room with excellent smart tv so you can stream everything. Covered front porch and the location makes it so you can walk to most of the great restaurants and shops including the waterfront. House was well equipped with all the kitchen stuff and items you could use for the beach and or lakes.

Great house, great location
We really enjoyed our stay at this property. It was very well situated in a lovely neighborhood, and in walking distance to Camden. The house was very nice, with a well stocked kitchen. It was a great stay for a family of four.
