Everything was as described and ready for us
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Aug 2025
Grounds & house were amazing and family had a great time. The house was left unkept by prior visitor and illness by maintenance staff to get home cleaned up prior to arrival.Maintenance was a no show to clean leaves from pool and common areas. 4 empty Propane containers and trash left laying around was picked up once alerting staff.New procedures should be put in place with a check off list being completed prior to arrival of new guests.Spending almost 1,000 a night I expected a WOW arrival instead of seeing all the trash from previous customer. nights credit would go a long way to soothe soul and lead to return visits.

Each year I take my daughter, my daughter-in-law and two of my best friends on a girls weekend. This property is amazing. The views are beautiful. The property is so peaceful and quiet. Town is not that far away if you’d like to venture out.The house is well equipped with everything you will need very spacious the game room was a plus and of course the pool the hot tub in the sauna was wonderful. I have rented many homes and by far this one was the best. We are thinking about renting it again next year but in the fall so we can see the leaves change. I would highly recommend this home.
6.0 / 10.0Average·May 2025
The house was very nice, the rooms are big and it is very spacious. The pool is huge and was clean, as well as the sauna. There is lots of outdoor space to eat and relax as well! The trip up the mountain was beautiful, but a bit rocky if your car is not prepared for dirt roads. The inside was clean for the most part, aside from the vents which seemed like they needed to be clean and bothered some of our breathing. This year is unusually cold for memorial day, and there was no heating on the property despite the central system, so if you are visiting during the colder months I would tell the owners you would like to use the fireplace, just in case (and bring your own firewood). We set it at 72, and tried raising it higher, but the house never got above 64. You may also want to bring additional beach towels if many people are planning to use the pool. You also will need to bring seasonings like salt and sugar, as there was none provided. Despite the house being close to the owners, we did not see them at all. Overall it was a nice stay, and the hosts are very kind and communicate in the app well, the only problems were the lack of heat and lack of basic seasonings.
