Awaiting a full refund!
Property management indicated in numerous occasions that this property was fully usable and available following hurricane Helene. The Absentee owners did not inspect the physical location and provided misleading details that it was fully habitable, and that there were current renters in it. Absolutely false!!! Drove 14 hours to home to find a large tree had taken out the power lines in the driveway. There was no power, cell coverage, water etc. Vacasa’s customer support is horrendous! They told us we were good to go and given access codes and numerous “welcome” emails” even after we told them we were unable to use the home. Stay away from properties managed by VACASA. We have been taken advantage of a still waiting for a refund. House was beautiful - so sad it went this way - totally avoidable. .

Sulfur Smell and Lack of Communication
My husband and I checked into this property late on a Thursday night. It seemed clean. When I went to fill my water bottle up, I could not drink the water because of the overwhelming taste and smell of sulfur. The next morning when I went to take shower, the curtain collapsed. This was not an easy fix as it was a clawfoot tub and the holder had to be drilled into the ceiling. We reached out the management company several times throughout the day to check on the progress of the fix and the water. We were always to told the the ticket was in but there were no updates. We made other arrangements to stay somewhere else because of the severe lack of communication. We did ask for a refund and are basically being told the same thing. I would not recommend.

Very Disappointing
Cabin was musty and very dark. Diseasher broken. dirty dishes put away as clean, dirty utensils on counter, AC very poor, hot tub lid was disgusting, porch was dirty and had wasp nests on post, hot tub was foggy and WAY over chemicals and created a gross foam, very busy road about 300 yards away. With rediculous fees, I wouldnt recommend this cabin at all. It was disappointing enough, we left after the first night to find better accommodations.

The cabin was very nice! We were unaware of the horrible sulphur smell. Thank goodness for the hot/cold water that was provided! The old bathtub was nice to look at but very impractical for showering! The shower curtain was WAY to long. Great location and very private!

Terrible from the moment we arrived!!
We arrived to a dirty cabin! There was lettuce and various crumbs in the drawers of the refrigerator. The stove top had stuck on food and oil spots everywhere. A french fry in the grate of the oven. The glass shower shelf that holds soap and shampoo's was covered in slimy soap scum (It clearly wasn't cleaned). The pull out couch when pulled out had various different food crumbs, bobby pins and hair ties (yuck). No one should ever be on VACATION and come to a place they spent $$$ on to rent and enjoy and walk into what we did. The outdoor grill was filthy and full of whatever food was previously cooked on it. The skewers for toasting marshmallows was filthy covered in burnt (unwashed) marshmallow pieces. The gas tank ran out during our stay while cooking breakfast for our family with no tools available to change out. The small heaters provided were not substantial enough throughout the freezing winter nights. Large bugs came in and were all over the upstairs. My kids were struggling to sleep at night because of this. We ended up leaving a few days early after how horrible this experience was. Not a thing was compensated back to us. A complete waste of money. Would never recommend anyone go through Vacasa especially. They acted like they would "make some things right" but in the end we got zero compensation. All we got out of this trip was a massive waste of money and disappointed family and kids and wasted trip and time that could have been spent more enjoyably elsewhere.

Quick getaway for 2
We had a great time everything was perfect! The driveway was all gravel and downhill so with the rain it was a little sketchy but we were in a jeep so we had no issues. Loved the hot tub! I for sure thing this is a great stay for a couple or a small family as there is only 1 full bathroom. Such a great getaway for us.

Nice but could be better
Overall great cabin, very cute with some updates. Our daughter loved that it had a hot tub and they have a box fan available which I thought was great. IYKYK. Now the cons: It's my opinion that if you take a car to this cabin and it rains or snows you might not make it out and you'll prob be scraping on the way in. I was in a mid sized SUV and getting out under dry conditions was tricky. I was scared the rain would start before we checked out because I truly thought we would end up stuck. Beware. When we arrived the door lock was dead so we could not enter the code leaving us unable to go inside until realized both doors to the cabin were unlocked as well as several windows left up and open. I felt very unsafe going into a cabin that had been left unsecured where a person could have gotten in or an animal through a screen. One screen (near the hot tob) was already pulled out in some areas. I just didn't find this acceptable at all. We had to leave the property unlocked when we left as we had no way to lock it back up. That's a huge problem. We were able to get a code for a key box and use it from that point, however, I don't think the door battery just happened to die in the 2-3 hours between the cleaning crew leaving and us arriving (we got a text that made it seem like housekeeping had been there that day) so I was annoyed it wasn't taken care of earlier. They offered to come replace the battery during our stay but I didn't want someone accessing inside the property while we were there OR while we were out. This was kind of a bother all around. Lastly, the tub/shower... I saw a note/review on the wall of the cabin from 2015 (?) when I believe their first guest stayed. They mentioned that the shower curtain was too long and there we were years later still with a ridiculously long shower curtain. Doesn't seem like a big deal but it was. It's a clawfoot tub so the long curtain ends up at your feet which pulls the sides of the curtain in and it's almost just wrapped around you. It gets over the drain, it's cold, it's prob not washed between guests, just yuck and so uncomfortable. It was so bad we only showered the first day. How hard is it to cut the curtain??? There was also a sharp glass shelf that juts out over the tub which is dangerous and I was surprised it was put there. No thought of safety went into that. So yes we liked the cabin but for what we paid a night total cost we prob won't go back. And they ask you to do laundry lol. No.

Great cabin in the woods
We had a great time, we never left the cabin, hot tub, fire pit, coziness, great kitchen facilities and about 20 nice turkeys visiting daily. Only problem was the access road, tires were spinning in place and at times all four wheels were not touching. I was literally stuck for 10 minutes trying to decide what to do. I had to back up, refill in the ruts, get a running start and drive partially in the edge of the grass. My sister behind me had 4 wheel drive and we popped hers into 4 wheel drive mode so she could exit. But we got our! Please take this in to consideration when booking here. If it rained I'm not sure I would have made it out.

Lovey real country log cabin
Lovely stay far out in the country. Nice to get away from the hustle and bustle. But still be close enough to visit the Biltmore House. Nicely modernized old times cabin. Property manager was very responsive to any needs we had. Briefly met the owner the day we left. Very nice gentleman. Would definitely recommend this as a romantic getaway. Or just a quiet country retreat for a couple of people or a small family. Lots of charm. Exceptionally clean.

Cozy cabin surrounded by fields
We had a great stay! Comfy beds, house was stocked with everything we needed. We had some trouble figuring out the hvac when we got there, I think the thermostats on the units may be off. Regardless, we were able to make ourselves comfortable. We loved having the space to let the dogs explore and run around near the property, there are several fields surrounding the house. We even saw turkeys, which the dogs got a kick out of. The smell of the water is a little off putting, especially while showering. We were thankful that water jugs were provided for drinking.

Nice Little Cabin
We had a great week at the cabin - it was very clean on our arrival and plenty of linens were provided. The kitchen was well-stocked and we especially liked the large gas stove in the center island. The location was good - about 20 minutes to Asheville and 45 minutes to Brevard (for any bikers, it was 1 hr on the nose to Dupont). I would warn anyone who is looking for total seclusion that you will not get that here - while the cabin is fairly remote, you can see the road in the distance (although it is far enough away that I don't think people driving would really notice you). It is nice and quiet at the cabin, and there is a big field for dogs to get their exercise. If you are traveling with multiple couple/friends you should know that you have to go through the first bedroom to get to the second. Probably not a big deal for a lot of people but it could kill the romance, so to speak, if that's what you're looking for. We had minimal issues while we were there and when something minor came up the Turnkey team responded quickly. My major negative feedback is that while we stayed at the cabin for 6 nights at over $200 per night, they only gave us enough dishwashing detergent for 2 loads. I asked for more and was instructed to buy it at the store. I don't think it would kill your bottom line to be slightly more generous there.
