Enjoying a long weekend

We enjoyed enjoyed everything about our stay. The cabin was cozy - the kind of place we could easily relax in when we weren’t out exploring or hiking. We look forward to returning!

Just Okay

Check in process was good but do you really need a 10 digit access code for the deadbolt? When we entered there was a strange odor. We thought it was the mini-split, but even opening wind didn't help so we ended upbo to the local waows

Bed is on a slant and way too uncomfortable to sleep and needs replacement asap. Furniture not clean. Bug spray used was overwhelming to breathe. The kitchen was ok but used grill as preface. It’s a rustic cabin and like other post keep in mind its age. My biggest issue was the bed as I could not get a good night sleep for two weeks. The location was excellent.

Small weekend getaway

This was the perfect place, to get away for a few days isolated enough not to be bothered but also close to town where we can explore.

Very cute but property management needs to step it up.

Propane gas fireplace didn't work, needs some cleaning improvement, but overall the owners have created a cute getaway.

Pictures are deceiving from what you see on listing cottage is very dark poor lighting, living room furniture is stained not very clean at all. First morning there while making breakfast the smoke detector randomly goes off , continuously while we manage to stop it temporarily within moment or so it goes off again unable to silence it. I Called VACASA representative to inform them of the situation and was told someone local would call to troubleshoot and come out this was Wednesday morning, Friday morning I receive a text asking if I would like someone to come out. Really no Show no Call until Friday…JOKE !What happens if it were a situation the renter wasn’t able to Manage? I see it as Very Poor Service.Cookware for those who cook was old non Teflon was just that non Teflon, no spices , scissors, foil, saran wrapping. Not even a pad of paper or pencil. Ordinarily property owners provide a guest services page outlining things to do instructions on trash removal, etc leaving a little personal touch when welcoming you to their rental, we did not find anything like that I found the little red cottage to be very disappointing over all. Would not recommend or return to this rental property.M.Sargent
