Poor Communication from Vacasa property manager
Will never deal with Vacasa again. Terrible customer service. Very poor communication with myself and even the homeowner, as we meet her when we arrived and she didnt know the place had been rented. I reserved this house around 1st of August.

Beautiful Hideaway
The location is secluded. The cabin was cozy and clean. The hot tub and fire pit were a nice touch. As other reviewers have said, arrive in daylight. The road getting to the place is a bit intense. I would not stay here in the winter.

Property dirty
this was a beutiful property and a very nice area, easy check in and out, nice a cozy property but the floor was dirty, the kitchen counter tops was dirty, the living room sofas were smelling terrible and disgusting bad smell, and managment company "Vacasa" is the most horrible, they never answer, thank God I did not have any type of emergency.

Broken bathtub faucet, no communication from maintenance
Picked this place because we were gonna spend a quick weekend golfing and playing the casino. The property is up a steep, narrow, unlit gravel road. I needed to put my full-size truck into 4wd to feel confident to drive up to the properly. The road immediately near the property is even more narrow and much harder to navigate in the dark. The property was unlit when we arrived. The turnaround area in front of the property required an 11-point road turn to turn around and leave. The house interior suited our needs as far as sleeping and lounging went. The bathtub in the only bathroom had a broken faucet that would only turn open about 33% until it hit a constriction, leaving us only able to get cold water. I called the number that Vacasa provided and spoke with a customer service rep that said she'd get in touch with local maintenance, but no one ever contacted me or showed up. Awful thing to discover after spending all morning hiking, but I luckily had some wet wipes in the car. The fact that the faucet was broke before i arrived in the only bathtub is due to 1: neglect to verify the basic human needs are satisfied by the company before renting it or 2. They found it and didn't care, hoping I didn't. Lastly, there was the incessant amount of spam sent to my phone after booking. Multiple texts and emails per day requesting that I stay longer than my intended booking and trying to force me to download their app. This was a terrible experience all around. I will never stay in another Vacasa owned property again, and will strongly recommend against anyone staying.

Not as it seems
I appreciate the home, it was nice, warm-ish, and dry. Internet and TV worked great. Hot tub did not work, shower was a death trap (extremely slippery and I had to ensure 3 points of contact for balance during each shower), paneling on walls/doors appeared cheap or installed hastily, no real view, and the thing that topped it all off for me........there was about 2 inches of space between the bathroom faucet and the sink (Bowl type sitting on top of the countertop). Place just didn't have a cozy feel to it. I would have given this home 2 stars but again, we stayed dry, warm, and safe.

Great secluded cabin
Nice wood cabin. Very unique and secluded up in the mountains. Follow directions to get there rather than Google Maps because it is not accurate. Road might be challenging if you have low clearance cars and definitely get there during the day because looking for it at night is challenging. Cabin was very nice, all wood interior.
