To start, I booked the property and filled out the additional requirement external to Vrbo to book the property. I also emailed the property owner with zero response. There was no pre-arrival Information for the property provided, nor any information provided on how to get into the property. Upon arrival, both driveways are steep, washed out, and have only loose gravel. Signs read that an awd vehicle is needed to enter. We live on a driveway much steeper than this property and have no issues, however you must get a running start to get up this drive due to poor road conditions. Upon getting up
the driveway, we had to call the property owner as there was no way to get into the cabin. They did help immediately and gave us the key code entry. The outside of the cabin, the porch, and the east side of the cabin area is very nice. The inside has very nice decor and is overall nice. However there was zero instructions on what to do with trash, linens, how to leave the temperature in the cabin, or anything in general. Upon inspection, the bed was found with a blankets with tears, a stained pillow with no pillow case, and the entry to the bed is very tight. My wife and I are athletic builds and it’s almost impossible to enter the bed on the south side with the heat on due to the close proximity of the bed to the wall with the heating unit. All of this information was given to the owners immediately, with a rather vague response in return on the items that were missing; they also did not seem to care about the condition of the bed or linens. Oh, also the headboard was completely detached from the bed and would hit the wall upon laying on the bed. The dryer also was fairly full of lint. The rest of the stay was pretty nice until I was sitting on the couch watching tv while the wife cooked dinner. All of the sudden the reindeer painting above the couch fell off the wall and hit me on the head. Upon inspection it was simply attached to the wall using adhesive backed strips, which was not very well secured. Before checking out the owner sent an email on how to check out. It said to put dishes in the dishwasher (there is no dishwasher), to take the trash out (if I had not asked, there would have been no details on where to actually take the trash), to set the temp to 55 (the direct conversation with the owner before said 65 not 55). To me all of these details promote quantity of stays over quality. Gorgeous area, needs organization!
