Cabin in the Woods

What a great family home! It was great for having kids and it served us very well. Close to everything. We are already planning for next year, minus the broken arm and broken thumb that 2 of us incurred!

Cabin in the woods

It was great, I loved the area the house was great. Beautiful view from all the windows. Close proximity to Shanty Creek, we walked a few times there or just around the neighborhood. Very quiet and peaceful. Will definitely consider staying there again.

Lovely Property

I really enjoyed my stay and would gladly stay again. However, there is hard/well water on the property and it is showing significant damage to some appliances. The coffee pot and dishwasher are definitely suffering and could use a good descaling. The water also made it hard to truly clean dishes and left a film on whatever we tried to handwash. The instructions regarding the pool towels (now in guest rooms) should be updated as well as instructions to light the fireplace. I believe these are simple enough fixes and I can say I slept. Better in this home than my own. It's quiet, peaceful and the views are stunning. It was great for a secluded girls trip. Loved how close town was and the views in Bellaire were stunning

Don't Do It

I have stayed at many VRBO's and this place is by far the worse i have been to. I don't normally complain but the cabin was dirty, sofas and carpets were filthy, urine stains on the bed mattresses; now i know why they didn't want us to take off the sheets like most places do; they had a 5 gallon bucket in the kitchen to catch the rain from the leaking roof. Broken kitchen chair for you to sit on, very dirty dishes and pots, we washed all the dishes, glasses, silverware and skillet before we even thought about to use them. There was dried food on the silverware. We had to wash the sheets and nasty comforters that were on the beds before we even slept in them. The kitchen table had a sticky residue on it so we went and bought a table cover for it. When you walked out into the garage it smelt like cat urine in there. We didn't get to watch any tv while we were there because there was no service, then they sent out the tv repair man on Sunday morning while we were trying to get ready and pack up now why wouldn't they send them after check out time? The fireplaces didn't work, so i had to call on this and the handyman came Saturday night to get them working. I would have never rented this place if I read the reviews a little closer. Oh and to top it off the driveway is damaged so you have to use the neighbors driveway to turn around and come in on the far left to pull into the drive so you don't fall into the hugh missing part of the driveway.

Not happy

Property was extremely tired. Never received email with codes for the property until day of checkin after several requests for the promised email. Then once received the email the checkout time did not match what was on VRBO, confirmation email after booking, and what was posted in the house once we arrived. Finally got a hold by phone the representative of the property she wanted to know where this checkout information was with this time, she kept stating I needed to let her know so she could correct it! We felt she wanted to get the housekeepers in early. Not to mention steal an hour of our stay!! Would not rent this property again!!!

Family Getaway

This was our first experience with VRBO. The property is in a beautiful setting, surrounded by trees, and very quiet. The accommodations were very comfortable, but could use some updating, especially new bedding. The sheets were very clean, but the comforter in the master bedroom really should be replaced. The kitchen and bathrooms were also very clean. The outside deck could use a good powerwash and really needs to be painted. Overall our stay was very enjoyable and we made some great family memories. I look forward to returning next summer and would not hesitate to rebook this same location again.

Lots of Options Here

The house easily accommodated eight adults and a couple of children. We used one deck (which needed cleaning before being able to use) for outside eating and game playing. The two living rooms provided additional recreational space. The pass to the indoor and outdoor pools was a real plus!

Poor customer service

Arrived to a house that had not been cleaned. Text property manager. No response. Called property manager and she answered. Cleaning crew arrived within an hour. Property manager stated she would reimburse a portion of the rental cost. Had to leave for a few hours while house was cleaned. Before Leaving marked all sheets and pillowcases as I had a feeling it would be a quick clean. It was. Didn’t change some of the pillowcases. Had a great time golfing! Contacted the property manager again after returning home to no avail. It’s been 5 days now. I didn’t figure she would keep her word. I held off writing this review to give her a chance to follow up with me. Still waiting.

Decent accommodations

We enjoyed our stay for a ski week-end. Had issues getting fireplaces going, but owner contacted maintenance for us and they were there and helped within the hour. The house has been used hard, but was clean and had what we needed. Kitchen was decently stocked. Layout of unit is a bit odd with access to the one family room only via the master bedroom. A Keurig would be a nice add and a set of mixing/serving bowls. Good location - about 10 minutes from Schuss Mountain Village/Cedar Village and less than 5 minutes to Shanty Creek/Lakeview Hotel.

House has many safety issues!

Sent a letter to the owners, not the address on the blank rental agreement had to go to the local Co. Country Clerks Office to get the correct address, owner never responded! We rented the house for a month wish we had not, ceiling beam coming down, floors bad, stair railing loose, grill not able to use, ceiling fans not working, A/C upstairs not working. plumbing in bathrooms needs attention, garage door opens by itself, hid-a-bed wouldn't work, and the list goes on for two pages! Do yourself a big favor pick a different place!

Ouch

The property was a safety nightmare.the lights where you enter the house (garage) were not working. And there was a big step down that you couldn’t see. The kitchen table was sticker to the touch. We covered with a blanket. I lit the outside grill. As it warmed up the built up grease all over it burst into flames. I had to pull it away from the wood railing and go find a fire extinguisher to put the fire out.. I took a picture and sent it to the owner but never heard a word back. I come to this area every year, but I won’t be back to this house.

We had a great trip and enjoyed our stay here in Bellaire. Easy access and no issues, even got to bring the kids to swim after skiing one day. Only issue was only 1 of the 3 TV’s worked, as 2 remotes had no batteries. Wasn’t a big deal tho - def suggest!

In need of updating

There are no instructions available on how to turn the fireplaces on, where the pool is (we never did find it), no map of the area, most of the TV remotes didn't work and likely need new batteries, the screen door was off, the lighting was very poor with many bulbs burned out, unable to slide the pocket door in between the downstairs MB and the bath. It has a nice location but is seriously in need of a review of little things that would have made the stay more enjoyable.
