The worst experience I have ever had
Read all the “old” reviews before booking this house. It is not listed with all details correctly. Says they have air conditioning, but this house has zero air conditioning. Their answer was for my entire family to sleep in a one bedroom downstairs with fans. The most miserable night after driving 10 hours to arrive to a rental that was a complete sauna. Zero help from the management company. This house should not be allowed to be rented with false advertisement. Warning to anyone thinking of renting this house it is very hot without AC. This seems to be an on going issue as previous renters stated. I had no idea the air conditioning was not working. You will waste time trying to get answers and a solution while on vacation.

Property was adequate for the number of people we had. (8) Cleanliness and A/C inadequate.
Good property for a large group. Needed to be cleaned better, many ants in living area, and the central A/C was inoperable and replacement portable units were inadequate on hot days.

Nice place
Enjoyed our stay at the property. The AC situation is not real good. During stay the temps only got to around 80 so wasn’t too bad. I would not stay here in summer as the home has an odd AC setup (individual room units). We never really could get to work and I suspect even if they do it doesn’t cool all that well. There are several window units scattered throughout the home. If I had been here in summer heat and had to use the portable units would probably just have checked out. Home is nice and neighborhood is great.

No Air, No dishwasher, Poor Management
Everything was clean and nice on arrival. We couldn't get the air to work (mini-split system). We thought it just needed more trouble-shooting. After spending two hours trying to get it work we opened the windows. Called the next morning at 7:30 am, no response by 12:00, so I texted, they acknowlegded my text at 12:22. But had not heard about any resolution at 2:26 so I called. Jackie said they would call me. Nothing by 3:44 so I texted again. They acknowledged my text at 3:51. Then at 3:58 they texted they would call me. I received a call at 5:00 saying they were bringing portable a/c units. We left for the evening and they were there when we returned. But they were poorly installed and kept popping out of the unit. We finally tired of dealing with them and opened the windows. Additionally, the dishwasher was broken. Which I know they knew about ahead of time. I am not sure if they knew about the a/c but one of the people I talked to mentioned that a part was on order so I suspect they were aware of this issue ahead of time. I am not happy about having to spend so much time with maintenance and trouble shooting while on vacation. We will not be staying here again or at any property managed by Vacasa. Which is too bad because it is a really nice house and location.

Great house
Had a nice stay over a long weekend with my family. Close enough to Asheville, about 20 minutes. The house was beautiful and new. Only problem we had was with the AC. The system kept shutting off and was very complicated to figure out. Glad it was spring and not mid summer.

Pleasant Stay, Great Location
Cozy 2 story cabin style home with updated amenities. No need to bring your PacknPlay or Booster chair because they have them on site. The only issue we had is not the fault of the property owner. The split systems used to heat/cool the home are a little confusing. I would recommend looking up the video on how to work them when you get there. If its winter I recommend NOT turning the downstairs units above 68 degrees because it will COOK whoever is staying upstairs. Its a common problem in 2 story homes. Again, this is not the property owners fault and its not a complaint, I just want to give a heads up to the next party staying there so they don't cook themselves the first night like we did. The home is wonderful, and in a great location just a mile from Montreat and only 400 yards from a local food store. There is a nice fenced in outdoor area for kids to play. Lots of parking for visitors. Definitely a 5 star experience. The price is great too!

Wonderful fall getaway
Enjoyed time with family, relaxing, driving around west NC, shopping in Black Mt. , Brevard and Highlands. The last week of October was the most colorful. We had several issues with the rental property: tv needed to be reprogrammed-took 2 different house calls to correct, trouble with front look-had to call twice to reset code, heat and air was a challenge. Good news: help was a phone call away and several hours away. I think we were among the first to rent and hope these issues are worked out for next renters.

Everything was very easy, from check in to check out. The location was great and the house had everything you’d need. Very quiet neighborhood too. Although make sure you have a Roku account if you plan to watch movies or TV. But if you’re like us and spend most of your time outside, there was no need.

It's a great property. Fenced in backyard was a plus for young kids. Wonderfully furnished. Everything was brand new. Great location, complete privacy. The only drawback was the master bedroom A/C didn't seem to work (or we couldn't figure it out) but the weather was so comfortable we never needed to bother the property manager about it. The rest of the house A/C worked fine so it was a very comfortable stay regardless.

Horrible Communication
Although the home was newer and clean, the communication between Vrbo and the property owner was horrible. A pest control man walked into our home while we were there!!! Needless to say, I was livid! All vrbo did was apologize as if it were a natural mistake. I would think twice before renting this property.
