Nice but needs some TLC.
Our stay was very nice. The set up of the house is great for a large group with multiple kids and families. That said, the property could use some TLC and a good deep clean.

Great
We enjoyed our stay. The house was clean and fit our large family perfectly. It was also in a great location. We had a minor hiccup, a dog had drug out all the trash, but someone was out in a couple hours to get it up. We can’t wait to come back next year!

Great Family Space!
We loved our stay! A lot of space for us to spread out in. The beds were comfy and everything was tidy when we got there. Two things that would be great additions would be an additional fridge or freezer and an additional propane tank. The one that was there didn’t work so it would have been good to have a backup. Thanks again for providing us a home conducive to a great, big family get-together.

Excellent weekend getaway
Our group really enjoyed our time at the cabin. The hot tub was a big hit. The pool table was fun, but it needs leveling. We did have to bring our own pool cue tips since only one stick was playable. The second day we had to get a repairman to come out and fix a toilet and the dishwasher, but that was handled promptly and without interruption to our trip. I was really impressed that the bathrooms were fully stocked and that there was plenty of hot water. Lastly the check out process was simple. Overall, I'd recommend this spot.

A perfect cabin!
We so thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this amazing cabin! There were two things that were a slight inconvenience for us, one of the beds on the main floor and the small table upstairs were broken, but we were able to make due. Things like this happen and we understand. All in all we had an amazing time and would highly recommend this cabin for any large gathering!

Overall we had a Ball
Overall my family and I had a great time. It was 17 of us and we enjoyed ourselves. We ran out of tissue, only 1 TV was working and we didn't have sharp knives for the food we were cooking, but overall we had a blast. The only other complaint my family has was that the beds were hard for the little time we did sleep.

Great location, nice place, needs a few updates
Great location. Close to tubing and zipping for the kids. Washer would not fill with water, called maintenance, he came out and said it could not be fixed and said it needed to be replaced a while ago. Also had to have all outside lights replaced, none worked. Cleanliness of place was sub par. Dust everywhere and spots on several walls. Toothpaste splatters in every bathroom. All beds need to be replaced. Everyone woke up with backaches every morning. Thermostat would not go below 72 which was miserable upstairs, we were all sweating. Overall we had a good stay, but don’t think we will be back.

Family Christmas
Over all a great time with family Comfortably slept 14. Three couples and with a couple other adults and several young adults Kitchen large enough to accommodate cooking meals for all. Did not eat out once while there 4 days. Dining table only large enough for 8 Living is large. Used gas fireplace daily Views are great. From living room and porches. Pool table was used extensively along with hot tub. There is a lot to do in the small towns around but only went out once. Bowling at Fannin Bowling Lanes. Highly suggested we had a blast. No real complaints just comments. Dishwasher did not clean well. Maybe time for upgrade. Same for oven. Food took much longer and higher temps to cook than normal. Living room only enough seating for 6. But that’s not a big deal. Brought kitchen chairs in and sat on floor. WiFi is not great but was actually nice kept people off phones for the most part. Would definitely book again if we do large family trip to this area another time.

Not as expected
This house is not equipped for large groups. There are bats living in the attic and the poop is all over the front porch. There was a wasp nest in the hot tub area. The deck wood is rotten needs repair. There is plenty of parking. There are not enough outside furniture for a large group. The grill had gas but only worked on one side and had not been cleaned from the last group. Inside the table seats 8 and there was 2 barstools. The living room had 3 chairs and a couch. Again not enough seating. There was not enough flatware, no wine glasses, no working can opener. The pans for cooking were old and not safe for cooking. The mattresses are old and stained. When I contacted Vacasa, they told me i would have to purchase pans, flatware and a can opener. The refrigerator did not keep the food cold and the ice maker did not work. The internet is intermittent. The most gross finding was the hundreds of dead bugs in the dining room chandelier. I have pics☹️ So we drank wine out of coffee cups, bought flatware, can opener and a pie plate from Walmart. Bought a ton of ice. And made the best of it. Overall, the house just needs some attention and is not equipped for more than 8.

Won't stay here again!
The ac is set to 72. You can't cut it down . It won't let you. We called when we got here Friday night and they said someone would come out and fix it. So the first night it was so hot while you were trying to sleep. 3 rooms had fans in them but they were so slow they actually so slow they were pointless. The other 4 rooms didn't have them. To hot to sleep. They came the next day to fix it. It still said 72 the whole time. I called multiple times. Outside where the hot tub is there are so many nest of (YELLOW JACKETS I guess). Kitchen cabinet doors are hanging off. Not worth the money. They should fix this for how much you are paying for a night to stay here!

Family vacation
This cabin was perfect for our family of 13 as far as bedrooms were concerned. Unfortunately, the cabin lacks seating in the main area. If the cabin can sleep 22 you really need to provide more comfortable seating in the main room. It is definitely big enough. There was only one sofa and two chairs (seating for 5). Putting a large sectional in there would have helped. We had to bring chairs in from outside. Also, we did not have heat on the main or bottom level the whole week. One morning it was 56 degrees inside the house. Luckily the fireplace worked great and we all huddled around that most of the time. They did send someone out but it wasn't fixed. I have read multiple reviews since we booked this that the air/heat are an issue. In addition, if you rent this place be prepared to bring your own toilet paper, trash bags, dishwasher soap, etc. There was NO extra of any of these things - one roll of toilet paper for each bathroom for a whole week is not sufficient, as well as two trash bags, two dishwasher soap packets. Also a chair and a table were broken and I had read in another review that this was an issue and it says it was fixed - they were NOT. This cabin has a lot of potential but I feel like the caretakers put off issues from one guest to the next. So book with caution.

Large group with kids
We had a great weekend - four families all with smaller kids. Plenty of places for everyone to sleep comfortably. Plenty of space for everyone. Yard is large hill but still great area for kids to play. Basement is great for kids to play. Near the horseshoe bend park right on the river - maybe five minutes away. It was an awesome outing for the entire family. Playground, pavilion, picnic tables, picnic lunch, kids played and dads fished. Then kids fished. So much fun! Great area and very close and convenient to blue ridge and McCaysville!

Major disappointment!
Overall the listing is pretty accurate....though It should be noted that there is no fire pit if you were looking forward to having a campfire. The only place to sit outside and enjoy the fresh air is on the porch. We only stayed for the weekend so the last night when we went to get in the hot tub we took the cover off and it smelled horrible. Too bad for us...it was late so we didn't get to enjoy that. The carpet is horrible and needs to be replaced. The place looks like a party house. The bedding is shabby. Each bed has a sheet and a nasty looking comforter. We found 1 extra blanket in the entire place. The bed in the master didn't even have a fitted sheet so nothing stayed on the bed. I'm very disappointed as I was entertaining customers for the weekend and it was kind of embarrassing! And for what we paid $3600 roughly for 2 nights....there is no way we would stay here again.
