Family reunion

One bedroom was not clean. Nor bed made. Another was locked. We found a key for it. Other than the one unmade room, everything else was wonderful. Loved it and it was close to the other activities for our big reunion. Thank you

Great place!

Loved the location of the property. Very clean and spacious. Toys for the kids were really appreciated. Only problem was the battery on a smoke detector needed replacing on the last day and it was inaccessible (needed a ladder) but that could not have been helped. We really appreciate being able to rent this property.

Great break away from the heat!!

Love Duck Creek area. House was in a good location. Home amenities needed a little updating but we all enjoyed the stay! Great time for all of the little ones to keep busy and enjoy the outdoors. Bed & Sheets in the main floor area was the BEST ever!! Fridge door didn't feel like it sealed. Pool table wasn't used because the sticks were all broken. Was ok though since we all visited on the main floor. We visit Utah often since one of our sons lives in Cedar with his family.. Would do it again when it gets a little cooler. Thank You!!

Perfect Location, Plenty of Space but Needs some TLC!

The Pros: The property is located right across the way from the Village. It is spacious and beautifully laid out. We had friends staying with us and they stayed downstairs comfortably. Location and space were ideal. The cabin is beautiful on the outside with a great wrap around porch, perfect for drinking wine and watching the wildlife. Now with the cons: Luckily for my husband and I, we went a day early because when we arrived the kitchen was so dirty it took us an hour to clean. The oven had a layer of grease that took us buying an oven cleaner and scrubbing for at least an hour. We also immediately went to the store and bought soap. The bathrooms had watered down soap that seemed like they were on the second or third cycle of watering down. Staying here during an pandemic, we knew we had to provide the proper PPE to protect our family and friends. There were no paper towels and very few rolls of toilet paper so please be prepared to supply your own. This house is not fully stocked on toiletries. This property would be an absolute gem if the owners gave it just a bit more TLC. It has so much potential. We hope that this helps the owner improve upon the property because it really has the potential to be a 5 star stay.

Empty SADDLE, Duck Creek

We wanted a get away from the city and we stayed at the same cabin in 2019, and this cabin was the “best” we could find for the 17 of us. Both times the cabin was very dirty, but the remodel and “better” pictures wanted to give it a 2nd shot. However, we fooled ourselves again, all the sheets in the beds had hairs and unpleasant stains, that was beyond gross. The kitchen was remodeled, it looks nicer than the time before, but stove was as dirty as before and dishes left in the dishwasher. They also put new furniture, but pet hair and so much dust in all furniture. The grill outside don’t even think of using, it is beyond gross. Cabin doesn’t have AC, which would be ok in the bottom 2 floors, but the floor upstairs where there’s the majority of beds is unbearably hot and the fans aren’t enough. Most of the doorknobs will fall in your hands and you get stuck if behind the door (my mom was stuck inside and we couldn’t hear her for few minutes, if you’re claustrophobic, this is a serious issue). We did not use the washer, but previous reviews say not the best either. The only good things they are good at is charging additional fees and emails, but that doesn’t clean the place. The money paid for the cabin is as if renting a luxurious place, but doesn’t delivered, I rate this a 1 star only for the people managing it are communicative, but never got the manager’s contact info despite asking several times. Overall, it is not worth the trouble all the emails/calls/texts, I will not recommend to friends. I have tons of pictures to proof, but wasn’t able to upload. Save the trouble and money, book somewhere else.

THE best vacation!!

This home was immaculate! You can tell the new owners have put thought and care into creating a comfortable space for guests. The kitchen is the best stocked vacation home kitchen I’ve ever seen! We had 15 people and had plenty of room! The linens were fresh and felt so clean. The furniture seemed brand new!! The game room was well stocked and our favorite! I HIGHLY recommend staying here. We got snowed in one day and had the best time sledding and having hot cocoa. Communication with the property manager was always quick and helpful - they were attentive to our needs. We can’t wait to stay again sometime, thank you for an amazing week!

Accommodating But Not Clean

The house fit our needs well, which was great. However, the cleanliness was subpar. There was a large pile of towels (15-20 of them) in the laundry room that were not washed and had some type of feces on them...possibly mouse droppings? We didn’t touch them. Every dish or pan or spatula we pulled out of the cabinets needed washed before use. We spilled a little water on the floor and wiped it up and after the towel was brown from the floor. The shower curtains were orange with mildew. There is more to say but those are the main items to note. With Covid-19 concerns the cleanliness was expected to be much greater than this. And just in general it should have been cleaner especially paying a $300 cleaning fee and $200 service fee. I feel like the cleaning fee should be refunded or partially refunded because it wasn’t clean upon our arrival. It is probably cleaner now with our departure. Other items to note: Many pans and other kitchen items are ruined or broken and can not be used, a burner on the stove would not light without a lighter, arms of chairs were broken, pool table doesn’t have any pockets that don’t go all the way through, and sleeping In the basement is extremely loud due to the squeaking floor above. We could not use the fire pit outside due to fire restrictions but the terrain is not as open as the pictures made it seem either. We were going to bbq instead but the grill was filthy. We did not use it due to that and adjusted our dinner plans. All in all we had a great time with our family, which was the point. But it would have been a bit better feeling like we were in a clean environment having paid the price we paid.

Family time

We had a great time. The place needs some TLC. The 1st morning we we grilling our bacon on the grill, and ran out of propane. So we had to finish our breakfast in the house. I had read in one of the reviews, that this happened to another guest, and they were delivered propane within a half hour. I let management know at 9am, and was told the propane will be delivered. After hours of waiting, I text again, and was told it is going to be delivered. We were going to BBQ for dinner and needless to say we did not get the propane until 7pm. So we cooked our burgers and hotdogs in the house. Other then that, we had a great time. Thank you!

Review of VRBO

The cabin was huge and fit our needs perfectly. The game room downstairs was tons of fun for the kids. The refrigerator might be on its way out since it doesn't close real tight yet it froze our eggs. The stove top looked strange with the paint half gone although it was clean but half the burners didn't work. I think it's time for a new stove top. The front door area was so dirty, perhaps the cleaning company could always sweep that area after they clean the house. The beds were comfortable and we had no problems with supplies or getting into the house. Bathrooms were great and all working. It's a great space and fits a ton of people. We had 11 so of course we were very comfortable since it actually could fit 18 people. We loved the area and would recommend this VRBO...it just has a few things that could be fixed.

Kitchen needs care.

Everything was great however the stove was dirty it looked liked like they are cleaning properly I tried removing it but got tired lol. We never found the bottom piece of the cup from the blender and the Fridge didn’t close. Since it was really cold outside we left the coolers with snow with our drinks :). Its just a couple of things but I would definitly go back.

Not very clean. No access to Internet

Our main problem was no access to Internet We all depend on Internet for information on road conditions, weather reports etc. And our next VRBO property in Moab had sent arrival information too late via email and we couldn't access it since Internet service was not available. We were told there is wifi when we booked. Also dryer didn't work .. All clothes were wet and had to be taken for drying. Furniture mostly sofas were not clean. 3 burners of range were not working When we contacted VRBO customer service there was long wait on phone and no resolution of our problems just were given complaint number We wasted 1/2 day just contacting VRBO being on hold. Talked to Jenny, Katie,and Melissa.
