Great place to stay for a family

Amazing

Cabin was nice and spacious, and walking distance to town. Even tho its very close to town, you still enjoy some beautiful views from the upper deck. Would've loved to have a gas fire pit out in the deck or down in the gardenarea.

Immaculate and spacious place a short walk from town

We very much enjoyed our stay with two families and 8 total adults/children (+2 dogs). The place was spotless and had plenty of room for all of us. The fenced in yard was large and a real plus for letting the animals run around. We had some minor issues with breakers and hot tub but the property managers were extremely responsive and came out promptly to fix things. An overall great weekend.

Perfect family gathering location.

This house was beautifully located with stunning views of Taquitz. The porches were the best place for coffee in the morning and grilling burgers in the afternoon. However, the evening visits just soothes the soul in the twinkling lights, under the pines and oaks of the side yard. The house has a well stocked kitchen, beds are comfortable and the sheets are soft. The layout of the house is well planned as the rooms are private and quiet from the rest of the house. We all left our weekend getaway feeling refreshed.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The place was great. The balcony is amazing, and there' a ton of kitchen supplies, no need to bring anything.The only downside is that there was a rat issue. We saw one in the kitchen and put traps out (they had traps there so it's a known issue) and we ended up catching one and had to trow it away.

Starry Nights and Rustling Pines

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home is a 24 hour delight. No matter the time of day as long as the moon is out, you can step out on the deck and enjoy the beauty and quiet of the Mountains. It is close enough to the center of town to hear the activities of the day waft over the pines but not close enough to become annoyed with traffic noise. Lots of stairs to help build your leg muscles through daily living. New appliances and the staff responded quickly to any of our concerns. Lovely visit.

Rounding up to 4 -- Attentive staff!

Four ladies celebrating being born in 1975 (Don't make me say it. Do the math. Ahem)Overall, a nice stay but there were some (mostly) manageable hiccups along the way: We were not informed that you enter the property through the side door. Spent 10 minutes in the snow trying to get inside before we called management. He was there in a jif to solve the problem.-Some of the kitchen appliances need to be replaced. Stovetop kept turning off when we tried to boil water. Countertop coffee maker's timer was broken. Microwave above the range is completely dead (no not indicating). The replacement, countertop microwave is teensy and works at about 1/2 power, so your two minute oatmeal will take roughly 5 to heat up. -wiring in the living room was a bit sketchyWhat WASN'T manageable for me were the smells in the house. Towels were laundered with floral-scented detergent and there were incredibly potent air fresheners hidden around the house. If you've got a sensitive sniffer or suffer from migraines (like me!) this could be a tricky stay for you. We sleuthed out the air fresheners and put them outside, then removed the scented detergent pod from the washer and ran my towels through the hot, sanitizing cycle without any soap. That pretty much took care of it.Beyond those things, we enjoyed ourselves. Walk to town isn't a straight-shot but it's a beautiful walk through the neighborhood. The driveway is very steep so plan accordingly. Staff was friendly & attentive!

The views from the decks of this property are spectacular and the home offers a perfect balance for those who want to be near the action (it's walkable), yet far enough away that you aren't bothered by the noise of the main streets. The beds are comfortable and the home is spacious - the property has the potential to be amazing.The home itself is in need of some TLC. The home could use some repair/upgrades and upkeep inside and outside, a restocking of basic supplies and most importantly a thorough deep clean. This property is a value for a large group with dog(s) looking to split costs. Otherwise, for smaller parties, it feels overpriced given the current condition. The property manager was very responsive and addressed our inquiries quickly.

Great Views, Undisclosed steep incline, Why pay a cleaning fee?

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Family and friends had a great time at the rental cabin. The views were great, the primary photo is spot on and the cabin was relatively clean. HOWEVER, there are number of issues that I had:1) The steep incline of the driveway. Don't know what the actual grade is, but had we not decided to park at the bottom of the driveway there's no way (even with AWD/4x4) our cars would have been able to safely go up and down the driveway in the snow. This is a detail that should be CLEARLY STATED IN THE DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPERTY. The only reason I looked into it was b/c a reviewer happened to mentioned it was difficult to walk up the driveway. I looked at the streetview on Google maps and thought it would be manageable but no I was mistaken. Having to park at the bottom of the hill, we needed to carry everything up and down. Yes it builds character but "FEATURES" LIKE THIS HILL NEED TO BE PROPERLY DISCLOSED. I mentioned my concern to a rep and she state: "Well you should have done your due diligence." WTH..REALY2) Poorly maintained: Many areas of the cabin are poorly maintained. There is a bedroom on the ground floor that is clearly NOT insulated. The heater is not enough to keep the cold out, b/c the door leading outside isn't insulated. THIS SHOULD BE CLEARLY DISCLOSED or remedied. Tiles in the bathroom are separating from the walls, the bathtub is either leaking or was recently fixed b/c the wood flooring shows recent water damage (How do I know? B/c the other family that went with us works as a property manager for multiunits.) Toilet paper dispenser falling off the walls, broken microwave, cracked refrigerator shelving and slides...What is the point of collecting fees for cleaning and maintenance when it's not being done properly? 3) 3rd party rental agreement: I realize this may be a CYA b/c of the number people who seem to have forgotten simple rules we learn in kindergarten but there is another 7 page rental agreement that you MUST sign or can't get the

Spacious and cozy with beautiful view

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Stayed here to celebrate my bday last weekend and it was a wonderful time in the home, which provided all the amenities needed for a cozy weekend in with friends and family. The kitchen is stocked well with cookware and supplies. The outdoor space is very large with plenty of seating around the property, although we didn't get to enjoy much of it as it rained all three days we were there. It definitely can get warm in the upstairs bedrooms when the thermostat is turned up past 64 degrees, and the bottom bedrooms didn't seem to warm up nearly as much. Also no closet or dresser in the master bedroom or bedroom with king bed, which was weird and inconvenient. All in all, it was a lovely cabin and the staff at New Spirit were kind, responsive and helpful anytime we had inquiries. I recommend this rental.
