The Mountaineer was a nice property. Very clean and modern inside. It is in the newer section of the commmunity which there isn't much there or any good places to walk. When I toured all of the communities, I would prefer Sunset Bluff first and then Deer Lick Falls Section 1. The upkeep of the communities could be improved as the roads were washed out and rough with some serious potholes. The amenities were not kept up great (trash overflowing for example) and the trail to the waterfall needs some upkeep as some very important cables were down or disconnected which made the descent to the waterfall more challenging than it needed to be. The payoff is fabulous though! Incredible!
On the Mountaineer itself, as I mentioned it was very clean and well appointed. Modern and attractive with ample supplies and appliances. Nice firepit area with string lights. There is a hottub that looked clean, but we did not use.
There were several issues that we overcame, but may be important to others. 1) There was no bathroom mirror at all. Very hard to put in contacts, put on makeup, or style your hair. It was just missing and we had to go buy a small mirror. 2) The TV remote for the bedroom TV did not work and it has no accessible buttons without the remote. 3) The sectional couch on the deck had molded and mildewed cushions and was so dirty it wasn't useable. We would have enjoyed this if we could. Maybe a cover to protect the furniture would be helpful. 4) The water pressure is very light making the shower hard to use. The shower was also very tight and slippery.
Outside of these issues, we did enjoy our Tiny Home and the community is close to hiking and restaurants. After touring them all, I would definitely choose Sunset Bluff on our next trip. Also, the property management company was great. We had another property reserved and it developed a septic issue. They did work with us and offered several options.
