Place needs cleaning and house needs to be updated. If you come bring your own towels as the ones that are supplied are very inexpensive and not adequate. Road to unit is very hilly use caution. Great location and fun outside area if you have dogs We will be back

Family vacation

The house is perfect for a family, but definitely needs some updating and a deep clean. The broom falls apart and the vacuum doesn’t work. The master shower has black stuff growing on the door. I love the layout of the house, but they need a deep cleaning or let the renters know they need to plan a day to clean the floors and dog hair.

Thanksgiving w/family in the mountains

We enjoyed our stay. Check in/out was easy and the location/neighborhood was good. The house desperately needs a deep cleaning and some basic maintenance.

One Issue after another...no NOT recommend!!!

Booked this house for a girls weekend, mainly for the outdoor space. We had one issue after another. The house was filthy, outdoor areas were not kept and there were weeds everywhere. The hot tub didn't work when we arrived and we wasted the entire first night and morning waiting for someone who was "supposed" to come fix it. Eventually the owner (not property manager) was able to get the issue resolved. The hot tub was also not filled above the jet level. We had, what was supposed to be, a beautiful outdoor fire pit area. We had three propane tanks, all empty. They said they "believed" they filled them. Clearly all were empty and no one ever replaced/filled them. Linens were dirty (bed linens and towels). When we sent pictures of the linens to property manager they said they were not theirs, and that we brought them...Yet there were 4 matching blankets, in the location indicated on the "instructions" for the game room and fold out couch. It was one thing after another with no resolution. The back door was broken, the microwave didn't spin, the refrigerator was broken inside, and the kitchen, toilets & showers were filthy. We were beyond disappointed, especially for the price we paid. Not AT ALL what we expected. Also found it odd the Manager communicated outside of the VRBO website/app regarding issues and accusations. DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!!

Nice Experience.

Stay overall was Good. Had some issues that were addressed by facilitators. My family had a wonderful time in the cabin. Tennessee is a beautiful state, with plenty to do, which made the stay a plus. Thank you for the accommodations.
