The villa that was given to us smelled like mold the tv wouldn’t work the bridge was out and it took us forever to get to our villa and there was no costumer service to try to get a new villa. Could not even stay and had to pay for a new hotel. Trying to get a refund and 4 days later no one has even called me back.

Almost everything is fine, but the smell of humidity is strong and the worst thing is the bed in the main room, it is full, it is small for a couple, and the mattress is very used and soft, it is not comfortable.

Cabin has a horrible musty feel which remains on clothes. Very dirty area rugs and soiled living room furniture. Almost 30 minutes from entrance gate to cabin in treacherous roads.

When we arrived and tried to check in, we were told I had already checked in, signed papers and gotten the key. Clearly I had not. The security guard was nice but seemed very uncomfortable- she handed me the phone and told me her supervisor wanted to speak with me. The supervisor told me someone must’ve stolen my identity, checked in and took my villa. I explained that I’d had a very bad trip up and really needed to relax and check in. She got very rude and told me it wasn’t anything to do with her and wasn’t her fault. Basically she was a jerk and I’m highly irritated.

Liked the area. Overall clean but property has a musty, moldy odor that wouldn't go away. Had to purchase lysol and had to constantly spray to try to clear the smell. Clothes and belongings retained the musty odor even after returning home. Need to have a clearer description and directions that explain recreation center and pools are miles away and hard to find. Water pressure is extremely low and made taking a shower difficult.

We love that it was pet friendly. We also love this home as it was nice and clean and very private. Everything was comfortable and it was like being at home away from home. The roads were a little narrow and steep for us, but after a few tries, we were OK with it.

The amenities were great, and the property was beautiful, but I would recommend renting from private owners within the property due to some problems I had with the resort renters. The resort changed our listing and after we paid a higher price to get a river view room, we were given a Mountain View. When we asked the resort to help us straighten things out they refused to make it right.
