Family Fun

Easy to find, good location, overall cleanliness of property good. Nice living room and kitchen area. The dryer didn’t dry as fast as we wanted. The hot tub was enjoyable and the view scenic but it lost heat during use and fit the three of us well. The road to the driveway was steep and curvy. A challenge for us not from the mountains. Definitely only room for two cars in the driveway.

Cabin in blue ridge mountains

Lovely cabin with many amenities. Location of the property up a steep incline was a little scary and no address marker so went to wrong place but once inside it was pleasant and as advertised. Close to national park which was a necessity

Broken hot tub

Rented this cabin for the weekend because it stated it had a hot tub.... That I've been broken weeks before we got there so it was completely unusable. We froze the first night because the heat did not work and the gas logs would not come on

Very disappointing stay

We had planned on a fun mountains trip with a hot tub and a view. At least it had a view. Otherwise it was a fail. There was loads of uncollected trash outside. The hot tub hadn’t been maintained. The 2nd floor was 15 degrees hotter than the first floor. The pics of the house are not current. The new furniture is worse across the board. Vacasa is quick to respond and Shannon was very helpful. We ended up leaving a day early. One positive note - it is very easy to get to Dillsboro, Sylvia, and surrounding areas.

Stay away!

We never even made it inside this house located up one of the most treacherous roads most folks can imagine. I drive a truck and we were never even able to make it in to the driveway. After almost going over a cliff to get back down, I called the property manager and was told that because of strict North Carolina laws, they wouldn’t consider a refund or credit towards a future stay. I called VRBO and they put me right back in touch with the property manager and according to their staff and many reviews, this is a regular occurrence with this property. I asked if the owner was notified and was told no so I’m going to call him tomorrow in Ft. Lauderdale to discuss the situation. I have rented from VRBO since the app was invented , several trips a year but this will be the last one if we can’t come to a settlement. We had young drivers joining us for a graduation weekend and for their safety I had to find another, more expensive house at the last minute. So I had 2 VRBO rentals over the last 4 days. Very disappointed with VRBO and especially the property manager, VACASA. If I have to spend more on an attorney than the cost of the rental I’m willing to do it because of the series of events. Completely took away from what was supposed to be a family celebration weekend.

Overall good just be prepared

Based on a review left two days after booking this non-refundable cabin, myself and guests were extremely worried prior to arriving to what might be a filthy and uncomfortable experience. The driveway to the cabin is extremely steep so have good tires and hope for good weather. We arrived at the wrong cabin first but eventually found it. I would recommend the property add house numbers at the end of the driveway. GPS confuses the destination when they are stacked on a mountain side. Best to arrive during daylight hours. Upon walking in and turning lights on, the lights in the first floor bedroom and hallway blew out immediately. No access to the electrical panel to fix. The bunk bed mattresses were like cardboard and the comforters were sandy/dirty but the sheets were clean. The other beds in the cabin were comfortable. Many reviewers complained about the water smelling like sulfur. Yes, it definitely smelled but we knew this ahead of time so we brought plenty of drinking/cooking water. The hot tub was great, the view was spectacular and it was a quiet and relaxing stay.

Nice house but...

Nice house and beautiful location. Getting to the house is extremely steep and couldn't imagine going in winter, as for the water the smell is terrible the past reviews were correct. The house wasn't to terribly dirty inside wasn't prestine or that clean either. The hot tub was terrible didn't even get to use at all, it was half empty and had stuff floating all in it. The hot tub screened in deck was also dirty and trash everywhere when we arrived which kinda sucked bc my kids really wanted to enjoy the hot tub. Overall it was a ok house that I would probably not book again.

House was beautiful. Road was not as scary as I feared. Limited view with some highway noise. Water only had mild sulfur smell and TV buffered. We didn’t need TV since there was a nice deck, hot tub, and outside fire pit. It was close to town for shopping and restaurants.

Will be remembered as that time we stayed in the fart shower house

The house was clean enough. The road/driveway was ridiculously steep with extremely sharp turns and we were terrified every time we drove up or down it (and this was in the summer- it would be impassable with ice or snow). The beds were all extremely hard and the kids say their beds were scratchy and lumpy, so none of us slept very well. The main issue, though, was that the water smells STRONGLY of sulfur (i.e. farts or rotten eggs). If you do the laundry, then the entire house smells like farts, and none of us are likely to forget the fart showers we had to take every morning! The entire vacation will be remembered as that time we stayed in the fart shower house. This house is way overpriced, considering the negatives, and we would not recommend it to anyone (at least not at over $400/night, after all the extra fees are added in)!

Nice getaway

Comfortable change of pace. Reasonably clean and spacious house high up on the hillside with beautiful view. The hot tub was welcome after a day of hiking. Take a filter pitcher such as Brita along for cooking water as well as bottled drinking water due to sulfur water at the cabin. Only other drawback was road noise. Must frequently reset satellite TV .
