This property had a lot of mold growing around doors and on the ceiling. It’s set up for 6 but outside only seating for four. No seating around fire pit. No bathmats. Hot tub took 5 hours to heat up. The property is old and tired. Needs updated.

We enjoyed our stay at Lago Vista. The house was clean, furniture was comfortable, seemed to be plenty of kitchen utensils and cookware (though we didn’t eat in much). The hot tub was great, very clean and in working order. The lake view was through trees, access didn’t appear to be easy from the immediate property. Houses were near but we had no issues with privacy. Just a note, the last hill to the house is rough so I would not recommend any low clearance vehicles. Check in and out we’re super easy. The area had plenty of hiking and shopping nearby. We would stay again if in the area.

Serene Stay With a Few Bumps Along the Way (literally!!)

It’s a peaceful place to unplug, just come prepared for a little adventure getting up that last hill!!!The cabin comfortably accommodated up to 8 guests with plenty of beds and bedrooms for a large group. The kitchen was impressively stocked with utensils, pots, and pans—great for home cooking during our stay. A private hot tub on the porch, perfect for unwinding in the quiet, peaceful surroundings.The location is ideal if you're looking for solitude. Very quiet and remote. The management company was responsive via text. While the issues we raised weren’t resolved during our visit, communication was prompt. We arrived to a well-cooled home; the HVAC worked efficiently and kept the space comfortable.There were dead spiders on the bedroom carpet and the second bathroom sink was retaining water. The management company responded they would fix it after our visit. The outdoor grill was dirty and had to be thoroughly cleaned before we could use it.As others have mentioned, the mattresses need attention—worn, dented, and lacking support. The road leading up to the cabin was extremely steep and rugged. VERY BUMPY!!! Even with a heavy-duty truck, it felt more like off-roading.A warning - the lake view is obstructed by trees from the cabin. You can catch a clear glimpse by walking downhill, but it’s not immediately visible from the porch or windows.

Dirty Hilltop

This property was at the top of a mountain that took 30 minutes to get to from the main road. The road went from a two-lane road to a one lane road that my husband described as a goat trail. When you met another vehicle head on, there was nowhere for either vehicle to go. The last section to get to the property was a dirt incline that was so steep we wouldn't have gotten up it had we not been driving a four wheel drive truck. The house was not clean. You could see that the table had not been wiped down as it had rings on it from a bowl. There was something on the floor that looked like a cocoa puff, the ice bucket in the freezer was filthy, and the tub obviously was not cleaned as there was hair all around the inside of it. We were so disappointed we left on Monday morning after only getting there Friday evening. I do not recommend this property to anyone.

Nice Getaway

Having an SUV, it was actually fun to go up the infamous final hill to get to the cabin. I really enjoyed the fireplace, and the cabin was as advertised. Nice view of the lake at sunrise, and it was a great place to get away.

A Great Cabin on the Lake

This comfortable cabin kept us cool after our adventures during the heat wave. Well stocked and nice furniture. We enjoyed our time. That road right before arriving the cabin needs attention. It should be just turned to gravel and the concrete pulled out. Big ledges and holes to traverse. As the listing said DO NOT rent this if you have a low clearance vehicle. Luckily we had 4x4 trucks.

Perfect!

This was a great getaway spot for my boys and I. Plenty of room for the four of us. As the description of the place says, I highly suggest a high profile vehicle. I am thankful I have a Tahoe, because I would imagine taking a low sitting car up the road that goes right to the house, would not be a good idea. We ventured into Nashville one day and into Cookeville. Plenty of cookware. There was even an electric griddle that I used to make pancakes on. We sleep with box fans for white noise. They had one available, which was great. So, if you need a fan for noise they had at least one there to use. I also like having a night light in the bathrooms. Which there are no night lights. So bring your own or there is a Dollar General nearby (surprise!) that you can buy some. Communication with the host and rental agency was good. Oh, the gas grill does not light on its own. You will need one of those longer lighters to get the pilot lit. I had one with me but I did see one in a drawer in the kitchen. Overall I was very happy with the home and the location. I live in a rural area anyway, so being away from the hustle and bustle of a town doesn’t bother me. I would definitely go back :)

A little disappointed

They main reason I rented this place was for the hot tub. I was ice cold when we checked in Friday, we increased the heat and the next morning it was still ice cold. Maintenace came but we still cook not use it until morning we checked out. The shower in the master bath was not working right so we had to use the upstairs bath it had no towels just a hand towel and wash cloth. The road leading to the house is very bad.

Great Weekend Getaway

My wife and I live a little closer to Nashville, so this was a perfect weekend get away for us and a quick drive. Cabin is nicely furnished and very homey. The master bed was way too hard for my taste and the water was a little too low in the hot tub to run the jets without splashing, but were still quite satisfied with our stay. The cabin was nice and quiet and relatively private, the lake is visibile from the cabin. After you're off the main highway, that last couple miles of road does turn to a one lane paved and then kinda transitions to a private gravel drive going up to the cabin. We were fine in the Fusion but familiar and comfortable navigating that. Not unusal at all to see a gravel drive up a hill or mountain in rural TN. Great cabin!

Dirty, smell of cigarettes, and not as marketed. Mgt does not care!

Our short two night stay began with a whopping cigarette residue smell throughout the entire cabin. When we checked in, the smell of this being a "smoker's home" was blatantly apparent to our sense of smell. Because two of us are allergic, and the place was not as described, we contacted host's afterhours line (it was a holiday weekend) right away, as instructed in our check in manual. After receiving a call back from the property manager, she informed us there was nowhere else to put us and assured me that it was in fact, a non-smoking cabin, and further attempted to assert this home had never been smoked in as, she claimed, she certainly would know if it had, because she used to be a smoker, and she has been in the home recently. Well, in our opinion, this was dishonesty at its finest. With nowhere to go, we stayed 1 night. After experiencing upper respiratory issues related to the rampant cigarette residue derived air quality issues in the cabin, we left at 7am the next day, cutting our vacation short. Host refused refund, although we informed them at check in the cabin did not meet the contractual agreement. Our money spent is now pending a claim with our credit card via purchase protection, after VRBO was not of much help. If you are a smoker, then I would say you will feel right at home. House was also dirty. Stains on carpet in Master bedroom beside bed. Urine stains running down inside of the toilet lids. No towels in master bath. Spiders (which can be expected).

Lago Vista Center Hill

Very quiet and relaxing with the exception of a little construction work above us but we understand the area is growing. Master bed mattress was way too firm for our liking. Master bathroom door did not latch and one of the upstairs bedroom window mechanisms did not work. We reported it but told them it was not a problem if they wanted to correct the issues after we left. We also found a bird trying to build a nest inside the gas grill but I cleaned it out and it worked fine. We had a power outage for about an hour after the storm rolled through late Friday night and again Saturday morning for about half a day due to all the wind the night before but we called Caney Fork power and they came out within couple hours sawed off the downed tree and got our power back on before 3pm. Not a big deal, stuff happens sometimes. Could have been a lot worse. None of the things I have just stated would not keep me from wanting to stay at Lago Vista again. Overall we had a very relaxing and enjoyable retreat with our family.
