Wonderful house wonderful experience

We loved that everything was set up and ready for us. Clean and everything was great from the start to the end. They even gave us early check in and a late check out option(at a price but it was well worth it). Thank you so much for everything! It was more than we expected and we had an excellent experience for my family and friends. We will take advantage of this next time we are looking.

Weekend get away

We had a lovely time. I would have appreciated more communication from the property manager. I asked a question and never had any communication back. The home was very well stocked and very comfortable. The Traeger grill needed to be cleaned.

Needs a little attention.

This house would be alot better if attention was given to all the dust and the dirty old used couch in the living room. Also the washing machine does not work appropriately...the soap dispenser does not work...and the seal to the washer machine is visibly moldy. This house had plenty of towels, soap, dishes and space so if the things above were taken cared of it would be 5 stars!!!

Paradise in Plain

As soon as you enter the driveway, the beauty of this place will leave you in awe. Entering the house reveals an open entertainment area with a beautiful and well stocked kitchen. Master bedroom is very comfy and roomy. The dining table room made for some great game nights and catching up with family. 10/10 we will be staying here again.

Great house

Location was great, far from town which we liked because there was lots of snow. We were somewhat disappointed that the house did not have a Christmas tree or decorations for the holidays.

Nice Accommodations But Needs Cleanliness Improvement

Went into Plain, WA for a wedding over the weekend. We had a group of 7 adults and 2 kids. The place fit us well though we could have done with one other bed for an adult (one adult slept on the couch). If the individual twin in the bunkroom were a Queen sized bed instead, it would have been perfect! The kitchen had all that we needed and was well stocked with equipment, though we didn't do a ton of cooking. Loved the dining area with all the windows! We loved watching the storms from the dining area and the outside porch with the chairs. Such a nice space. The only issue we ran into was dog fur all over the furniture. Generally not a big deal, but it was an issue for our toddler who has allergies and had bad asthma flare ups all weekend. Would have appreciated if management had sent someone out to clean it up, too, as we did notify them of this.

Cozy, clean and very responsive staff

Our family loved staying in this house. It was clean and it has a comfortable layout for multiple families. It’s a good 20 minute drive from downtown Leavenworth, but we were aware of this while booking and even chose to “stay in” one of the nights verse venture into town given how comfortable this cabin was. All in one weekend we were able to experience a a fun night in, then an easy day drive into tow and also visited the reindeer farm (also 20mins away) to make it a fun, festive Christmas time weekend! We ended up getting hit with a snow storm during our stay and we had concerns of our departure and getting vehicles out of the snow. The staff responded to our need for support immediately and were kind enough to assist us with some snow removal. We would definitely book this location again!

Well stocked, comfy cabin in a pretty setting

This was a very nice cabin.. The kitchen was well stocked and everything was very clean and comfortable. The space was perfect for a multi-family visit, although we just had the four of us this time. The scenery was beautiful. We did have trouble making the oven work, though. The digital screen is malfunctioning? We also felt that, after all the fees were added, that $600 per night felt a bit steep, compared to other places we have rented in the area, but I suppose it’s to up to the owner what they want to charge. We did have a nice stay, though. Thank you!

Lovely log home

My family enjoyed our stay in this beautiful log home. A wonderful getaway. Pros: The house was clean and decorated in a fun western style. The interior is constructed with massive log posts and beams - impressive. Warm and cozy gas fireplace, 2 comfy beds, lots of clean towels and extra blankets. Kitchen had everything you need. The house was dog friendly which we loved. Plain is a great location for quieter hikes and close to Lake Wenatchee. Cons: large dining area was not well lit so we crammed around the smaller kitchen table for meals. The single and loft beds were uncomfortable. The firewood project in the back looked messy. There is new construction happening in the neighborhood in view from the home.

Clean and comfortable

Home was clean, comfortable, and well stocked. We had some internet issues. Management was responsive in trying to assist us. Would just recommend softer pillows and some type of welcome binder typically seen in other home rentals. I saw a binder with property specs, but didn’t see anything with information on what home amenities could be used or what we needed to do for checkout. (For example, there is a hot tub + towels, but we weren’t sure if we could use it. (We didn’t). Also not sure if we needed to strip beds or take out trash upon leaving, etc.)

Absolute Perfection!!!

Absolute Perfection! Our family recently stayed at this property for 1 week to escape the fireworks of our neighborhood. This property quickly became our favorite place we’ve ever stayed. Not a single firework to be seen or heard throughout the entire week. The home and yard are BEAUTIFUL. Everything was clean and organized. It had all the comforts of home and then some. The front and back porches provided the perfect spots to enjoy morning coffee or just sit and enjoy the peacefulness of the quiet neighborhood and beautiful hills surrounding the area. Air Conditioning, Wi-Fi and all appliances were perfect. As a family of 3 and 3 dogs my only regret was not bringing more people to enjoy this amazing spot. It would EASILY sleep 6 or so. There’s plenty of space for relaxing, sleeping, cooking, eating or playing board games. You’re just 25 minutes from downtown Leavenworth if you want to spend a day in town. Just 2-3 minutes from a super convenient grocery store and gas station. Then 15 minutes from Lake Wenatchee! Our favorite part of this property may have been how incredibly pet friendly it was. Although the yard is not fenced it is HUGE and the neighboring properties are far enough away (and quiet) that our pups were rarely bothered or even noticed anything off property. It’s the type of place you wish you had more time at and then immediately start looking at future availiability as your time draws to a close. We would whole heartedly recommend staying here and we can’t wait for our next trip back.

Trip to Remember!

We loved the cabin, very cozy, and we love Leavenworth! We could not figure out how to work the fireplace, it would not turn on. Very comfortable beds, and a very well stocked kitchen. We had a bit trouble finding the wifi password, as it was not posted anywhere like in other homes we stayed in. There were no any instructions or house rules around, only on the website. The checkin process was nerve-wrecking, as I never received an e-mail with instructions, and when I called Vacasa, it took 1 hour and 48 minutes of hold time before someone finally picked up!! not to mention that I had to call 3 times, because first two times after about 40 minutes the phone call would fail due to poor connection in the mountains, so I spent 3 hours on the phone to get through to someone. I thought we would never get into that house. I am still not sure why they could not just email me the instructions (they said they had to verify my identity, but had no trouble charging my credit card without verifying my identity?) It is a wonderful cabin, just brace yourself if you have to call Vacasa.

BEWARE: Toilet leak, dirty dishwasher, unwashed floors, no hand soap. Unfortunate for all.

We couldn’t check in early per request due to “deep cleaning for COVID”. 1. Upon arrival we had a wet entry floor. We thought it was mop water so cleaned up (floor was filthy dirty). An hour later our 7 year old fell hard, slipping in this area again. We realized the ceiling has a water leak coming from upstairs bathroom. After reaching out to Vacasa that late Afternoon, we didn’t get a response until we reached out again the next day. This never was fixed, they just turned off water to that bathroom. 2. We go to do dishes after dinner to notice that there were dirty ones in dishwasher. Even grosser was there was a toilet brush on top rack waiting to be cleaned. 3. No hand soap in any bathroom Dispenser, even after letting Vacasa know. Didn’t get fixed when they turned off water to bathroom on day 2 either. 4. We reached out to discuss some sort of reimbursement since this home was not properly cleaned or equipped. We shouldn’t pay a cleaning fee when it wasn’t clean in the first place. In addition, we paid for a 2.5 bathroom home for our group of 9 and ended up with 1.5 for our trip. Have received zero response from Vacasa or owners for over a week now. Would most definitely NOT recommend staying here unless you could guarantee cleanliness. Home itself was nice along with property.

Great location for Nordic Skiing

We love this house. We've stayed here two years in a row for a nordic ski weekend. The house is located 5 minutes from the trailhead in Plain, and just a few more minutes to the Beaver Creek trail head parking lot up Chiwawa Loop Rd. In the house: the kitchen is very functional, the beds are comfortable, and it has just about everything you need. We love getting the wood stove cranking and using the "unconditioned" side room for board games after dinner. It would be great if that room had some more lighting options. The dining table in the great room is a little small, so if you are more than 4 people, you do need to use the larger table in the side room that does require cranking the wood stove, so it take some planning/timing. Would be great if the dining table in the great room could seat 6. Two other things to note for the winter: while the driveway does get plowed, we've found that there is still a few inches of compacted snow and I'm not sure you could manage with a 2 wheel drive car. So in the winter, probably a good idea to have AWD. Even in our Subaru Forester with snow tires in X-Mode it felt pretty slippery! The primary bedroom on the first floor is surprisingly cooler than the other parts of the house, so it is a good idea to keep that door open to facilitate the circulation of warmer air, otherwise you're going to get into a cold bed. Last thing, for the hosts: The kitchen could use a few more wine glasses and soup spoons. We were just 3 adults, and were able to manage, but a party of 6 or 8 would have trouble. Regardless, I'm sure we'll be back again for another adventure on the Plain Valley Nordic Trails!

Best Winter Getaway Home

This was the perfect winter getaway home for our group of 7 adults, 1 child, 1 toddler, and 2 dogs. We loved everything about this home: from the two fireplaces, the 8-seater dining table in the sunroom (not pictured), the huge deck, the loft, the cozy beds, and the well-stocked kitchen that allowed us to make bread from scratch and boeuf bourguignon. There was a little over three feet of snow during our stay but management kept the roads shoveled and clear. We booked this for our Leavenworth visit but we enjoyed the home so much we spent more time at the home than in the town! One suggestion is to make sure the photos of the home are complete and updated. I almost didn't book the home because I thought there wasn't enough seating--thankfully the reviews said there is enough seating for a big group so I had at least that to trust. Management could abate these concerns ahead of time if only there were pictures of the sunroom. If ever we'd go back to Leavenworth, we are surely booking this home again.
