There was rodent poop on and under all of the beds. Two beds has stashes of nuts the rodents had collected. The poop was small, so I guess it was mice. We did not see the rodents. We contacted the manager who apologized and promised a full refund. He was unable to provide alternate accommodations but we were able to find rooms at a local hotel.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time at this rustic cabin. Our group of 12 Scouts visited to go snowboarding and this fit our needs and price point perfectly. It was close to the Ski resort and town and check-in and check-out were easy. The kitchen was stocked well with everything we needed including a regular and pod coffee pot. Which is very important when traveling with teenagers. lol, and the kids loved the firepit which they used even though it we freezing outside. If you rent this cabin, be sure to bring hand soap for the 3 bathrooms, toilet paper, and ice as those items were not available. The comments about the driveway were not joking. We had a 15-passenger van and a big truck. We were told that backing up the drive was the best way and that is true, but it is steep and on the second day we had to park the van at the bottom as we couldn't get it up the drive due to the loose gravel and damp ground. As for the cleanliness, yes there were a few cobwebs, you are in the mountains in the woods, we just dusted them down and went on. I guess as scouts we are used to nature. However, we did have a couple of beds that had hairs between the sheets so I'm pretty sure they were not clean. So you might check that when you get there so you have time to wash them before bedtime. As for the beds, the mattresses on a few of them could stand to be replaced as they are worn out. If you want a great place to eat breakfast, Joey's Pancake House is close by and fabulous. Overall it was a fun trip.

The cabin was a joy to stay and and easily accommodated the 8 people in my family that came to this vacation. The location was off of the main road going through Maggie Valley but wasn't so far out that we couldn't easily get back to town if needed. It was really quiet at nice and very peaceful, excellent place to come back to from a fun day in Appalachia. My only cons I have with the place where minor at best. First was the driveway leading up to the cabin. The majority of the road was paved but the driveway like 300' from the cabin it went from paved to crush & run on dirt on a steep incline with a sharp turn into the parking area for the cabin. We were using a rented Jeep Wagoneer so it wasn't too much of an issue for us but make sure your vehicle can handle that kind of road before choosing this cabin. Secondly, know that there is no central cooling for this cabin but there is working heating. It got a bit stuffy there for us but we solved it by buying some simple box fans and placing them in the windows to pull cool air in from outside. Again, not a deal breaker and should have been expected with a mountain cabin. Just be sure to bring some fans when you come to do the same in the Summer, shouldn't be an issue in Fall or Winter. Thirdly, there's no WiFi nor internet in general availible at this location. When we booked our reservation VRBO listed that it had WiFi but when we checked in Carolina Rentals stated it had no internet. Be prepared to use your phone's plan.

The house was not clean at all. One of the beds had been peed in and the sheet where not washed at all. The dryer you had to dry the clothes 5 times to get the dried. The microwave way made noise when u tried to use it. The steps on the the front porch was messed up and cause a fall and a trip to urgent care. I would not ever stay at this place again.The landscaping was no done the weeds were high as the porch, someone was supposed to come and weedeat but never did. One of the queen beds the slats were messed up someone come and said it was a old bed to be careful when sleeping in it. The property manager was very nice.

This property was what I expected for a mountain cabin. Large, comfortable, full of well used furniture. not overly clean--lots of dried vegetation on the porch, behind the doors were spider webs, dust, etc. The sheets were clean, the beds were well used (but kids don't complain), and the cupboards not overly clean (we washed pots/pans before use). There was a starter supply of toilet tissue, dish soap. Bath towels and wash cloths plentiful if small, but only 1 kitchen towel, not dish cloth or sponge. Generous number of plates, silverware, cups, coffee mugs. Large bedrooms, 3 full baths, a laundry room, and open kitchen, dining and family space. The porch was excellent, with plenty of squeaky rockers, a hammock, and swing. View was amazing.

Driveway was a little rough , Everything else was great nice veiw

Took the scouts skiing. Lots of space for everyone. Thanks so much!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cabin was roomy and plenty of room to stretch out for my large family. There was trash on the outside in the woods (shame on renters who would do that) and bedding was sparse/uncomfortable, but over all great.
