Beautiful home

Only issue that annoyed me was the freezer & ice machine did not work & it was a bit of a drive to get ice for beverages. Great space to spread out & relax & enjoy down time after moving our duaghter into her dorm. Close enough to the school but secluded enough to enjoy nature

Great property but amenities need work

Loved the vibes of this place, and for the price we can't complain too much, but the freezer was broken along with the ice maker. Groceries we bought were melted the next day. The pullout in the living room either didn't work.

Great house disguised as cabin

This wonderful suburban home (inside) looks like a mountain cabin outside. We cooked breakfast and dinner there and hiked the parks during the day. Very secluded and slightly off the beaten path but easily accessed. Nice pool table and game selections. Solid wifi. Kitchen needs some steak knives but if thats the only thing missing. Great rental!

Graduation Weekend 2025

We had a great stay at The Lodge. The layout of the house fit our family perfectly. We enjoyed a nice walk to the creek. The fire pit was also a hit. The fact that their was a mini-s[lit in every area was great. Regulating the temperature is usually a huge issue when we all stay together. We are looking forward to our next opportunity to stay at The Lodge.

Nice cozy cabin near to many areas

We had 100% difficulty reaching the "local" Vacasa office to determine if the house was in an affected area by Hurricane Helene and had Wi-Fi restored. I kept getting a Caribbean office, which was very frustrating. We took our chances and made the trip. We arrived at 4:30 after receiving 2 notices that the unit was ready and clean for a 4:00 check-in. Once we came up a very (typical for this area) primitive road (which in most cases would require a 4WD, we found this beautiful home. However, there was a car there. Upon going to the door we were greeted with 3 small boys playing. Later a man and woman came and said they were cleaning the property, that it was last minute because of an emergency with the regular cleaner. We had no issues while waiting for them to finish cleaning. However when they left and we got unloaded I wanted to freshen up. The towels in the main bathroom had make up stains on them and were damp. I decided to wash them myself for my peace of mind. The washing machine was very dirty in the inner plastic ring and the dispenser drawer. I proceeded to wash the towels but it took all night for them to dry. The dryer does not heat up. We reported this to the local agent (which we had not prior to the trip been able to reach). She said she would send someone out and compensate us. Chairs in the den are NOT recliners as represented. We will not use VACASA again. This house was nice and comfortable and a nice place to stay if the washer/dryer are fixed

Could be nice

The house is in a fantastic location and could be a very nice place to stay, but it’s not being maintained by the corporate owner. Many things wrong in the home, including water damage in the basement which caused drywall damage, high humidity, and mold growth. The inattentiveness of whoever is responsible for maintaining the home is apparently oblivious to details such as the mismatched brands for the coffee maker and carafe…they don’t work together. These same details and more were reported to the corporate home owners, VACASA, but I haven’t heard from them whatsoever since.

Better than the pictures!

Every experience I've had with Vasca has been excellent. They don't try to make the home more than it is. If anything, they underrepresented with the photos. Also, it's just all the little things that are available. They have tons of spices for you to cook with, really good cookware to use. There are plenty of additional pillows and blankets. The property itself is gorgeous and secluded. We will definitely stay here again!
