Lovely Huntington Cabin

We had a wonderful time at the blue jay cabin. The property was clean, comfortable, and within walking distance of the lake. We hope to stay here again!

Nice place

Ive stayed in several of these condo. Theyre all pretty similar. This one isn't updated or modernized but we don't care about that. Well decorated. Everything you need is there. Very comfortable. All of these condos have lots of stairs if you're not familiar with them. I would stay here again.

Great time of the year to be here.

Very Quite. Almost no one at the lake this last week of November. Lots of stairs at the condo. 3 Levels . Bathrooms on bottom floors. Hand rail on 2nd level stairs needs to be repaired or replaced. Over-all great time if you enjoy no crowds and you don't mind the work out going up and down the stairs.

Really enjoyed the property. Wish communication was easier.

We enjoyed our stay in this property. The kitchen is well stocked. The challenges we faced were with communication with Vacasa. Since this is a large company, their communications follow typical large company customer service practices. Long phone wait times and rigid process. We would stay in Vacasa properties again but prefer to stay in mom n pop owned rental properties because of the personal communication. Personal communication often comes with faster responses to communications as well as flexibility.

Clean and comfortable condo

My family visits Huntington Lake every summer, we have stayed at this condo at least 3 times. It’s always clean and has everything we need. It’s perfect for multiple families with separate sleeping areas plus a large family room. I’m sure we’ll visit again. Thank you!

We love Huntington Lake

Easy to access, we like the layout and all the amenities were provided. The kitchen was very well stocked with appropriate pots and pans, which is important to me. Lovely view from the balconey.

Property is ok, but needs some maintenance. The master bath drains very slowly. This combined with a high flow showerhead results in ankle deep water every shower. The bbq stunk of rancid grease and was unusable.

Relaxing Getaway

We had a great time!! Property was awesome, no WIFI but we read this in the description and came prepared with a hot spot. The only problem we had was we were only given 3 trash bags for 4 nights. We needed a couple more. Also there were painters scheduled the same week we were there...they started at 0730 am and it was loud. They were very nice and it only took a couple days to finish our section. A warning would have been nice. Over all awesome place, awesome price...will definitely be back.

No Wifi, No Cell Service, Burned out Lights, Not enough blankets, Noisy wall heaters.

But most importantly, No Wine Glasses! Potentially a great place, needs maintenance and wifi. Seriously needs wifi and maybe TVs in both bedrooms.

Great location but..

Lots to say here. Starting with the good things- location is great, just 5-7 minutes past China peak. Quiet condo and we really liked the layout of it. Nice big couch in living room. But! On arrival- and we were hurrying to make a lesson at China Peak & the key pad didn’t work to open the front door. Called Vacasa Which is a call center in Florida who then called the local property management office. This took too much time and we were late. Ended up getting an actual key from a code from nice property manager. The 2 bedrooms And two bathrooms downstairs were ok- my daughter had allergic reaction to their bedroom and slept on the day bed in the kitchen which didn’t have any bedding for it. There are nice big blankets in the living room which she used. The heater in the master bedroom makes popping sounds all night which woke my husband and I up all night both nights. Not good. The bedding and comforters on both beds are very dated and uncomfortable. Plenty of towels but very hard. Good water pressure. The kitchen- no Tupperware or tin foil or plastic wrap or sandwich bags. Old utensils. Everything felt kind of dirty. the coffee filters for the coffee maker are the wrong shape and size. Good to have dishwasher. We learned from past review to bring all own food and we did. Fireplace in living room was very full with ashes on arrival but usable. Definitely Needs to be cleaned out. The tv DVD instructions both on line and at the condo were wrong but we figured it out. We have no idea where the hot tub and pool are. It would be good to have a binder with all the local places to eat and shop and a clear map of the property. I don’t think we’d rent from Vacasa again- instead we like VRBO’s that are owned by people who take care of all the upkeep and personal touches.

Cozy - A few improvements

What a lovely cabin - great location (5 mins drive to China Peak) and very cozy. The cabin was clean and easy to access. We had one great clear day and one day of snow. Lots of books to choose from. Five great snow parks within a 30 min drive. There are a few things worth noting. First, neither my husband nor I had cell service (T-mobile) and the condo does not have wi-fi. I don't mind not having wi-fi, but we couldn't really plan while we were there. We had to go to China Peak for wi-fi. Thus, it would be helpful for the owners to provide a guest book (there are summer recommendations on the fridge but that's about it) containing local activities and essential information (e.g., hours for china peak, rec center info, contact info for the property manager). For example, there is a community hot-tub and sauna that is available in the rec center after 3:00pm (awesome!). Had we not had the neighbor contact the property manager (we smelled propane gas up the fill), we would have not been able to access the hot tub (or even known about it) as you need a gate code. As a side note, when we smelled gas we had to have a neighbor contact the manager as there was no contact info and our phones did not work. Also, the post indicates that coffee will be in the cabin - there was no coffee and no filters. My recommendation: Do your homework BEFORE coming. Bring movies/DVD's, bring your own food and food essentials since you can't take a "quick trip" to the market. The closest "real" market is in Shaver Lake which is a 30 min drive. Overall, lovely weekend.

Property was great for our family of 4!

The condo was well stocked with dishes and everything we needed for our short stay. We have a toddler and a newborn and this place was just right for our small family. Was able to enter condo without any problems upon arrival, which doesnt seem like a big deal, but I’ve had problems with this elsewhere. Side note to any one who has never been to Huntington Lake before- make sure to bring plenty of food!! This was our first time at H.L. and we usually go to Lake Tahoe. In the back of my mind, I was thinking there would at least be a small grocery store or restaurant for us to eat/get food. There was nothing. We went during the middle of the week, in the heart of winter, so it’s understandable. I’m not saying this was a bad thing, just make sure you plan accordingly. Luckily we had packed the cooler full. We didn’t see a single person or vehicle on the road until the end of our trip when we were leaving H.L. The isolation was great and a new experience for us. It also snowed about 8 inches while we were there! Great time.
