Amenities not available, scenery and family time perfect

I’ll be happy to edit this review if corrected. We rented this property so our large group of 18 could sleep comfortably in their own private areas as the description stated it could sleep up to 20 with 5 king bedrooms, 2 queen sleeping loft, and 3 sleeper sofas. Upon getting ready for bed the first night we discovered that the advertised “3 sleeper sofas” was not accurate. Only 1 of the sofas in the home was a pull out and the springs were coming out of it. Also, the queen over queen bunk bed in the sleeping loft did not seem sturdy enough to safely sleep an adult on the top bunk. So now we were down 4 beds we needed and were planning on utilizing for our guests which made finding other arrangements for the 3 night stay very difficult and dissatisfying. The king beds in the bedrooms slept fine but we’re VERY noisy. If you move at all it sounds like you’re laying on squeaky rubber ducks. Most power outlets in the bedrooms didn’t work so no use in turning those bedside lamps on at night. Also, the steam shower in the upstairs loft was not useable as it was missing the knob that turns it on so that was another amenity we were looking forward to using that we didn’t get to enjoy (along with the advertised air hockey table our younger family members were excited about that also was missing completely from the home). The thermostats were locked on 74° so be weary of that if you like it cooler in the hot days. Half of our crew were fine with it but the other half were uncomfortably warm for their stay. Also, upon doing dishes we discovered a full load of dirty dishes from previous tenants in the dish washer unwashed so that was a little troubling as well. The deck railings were loose/rotting in places so make sure to keep and eye on the little ones while outside. Also to note, the walls and ceilings are so paper thin you can be on the third floor and hear the full conversations of people on the ground level floor 2 stories down word for word like they are standing directly beside you. So if you like quiet time or privacy at all maybe this home isn’t for you. I would suggest the owners invest in some thick area rugs to help. Also, if you’re outside on the right side of the house you will definitely smell a foul sewage smell. All in all we liked the layout of the home and the location and it seemed clean enough (besides the dirty dishes) but the description needs major adjustments to accommodate for the wrong bedding/amenity/home features situation.

Lots of maintenance issues, like the back railing falling off. Nice place in a good location. Don't expect to cook, the pans are horrible.

Wowwwww!!!! What a great cabin! It has been 15 years since my mom has traveled anywhere other than the devil by non emergency transportation.. with god, we were able to take her on a vacation. Could not have been any better choice than 956 black bear cub way ❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️ Thank you for such a phenomenal experience. We were able to have my mom my husband all 4 of my children and my grandchildren and was more than comfortable! Hands down, my best experience in all my years of travel! Again, thank you so much!

The place is just like shown in pictures. The cabin has tons of things to keep kids occupied. Great experience overall, certainly going there again in future.

The cabin was very nice and spacious. Furniture needs to be replaced and there were only a couple wash clothes for 11 people but other than that it was great. Team was very responsive when we had an issue.

We had 3 families of 14 people total. Space and layout of cabin was very spacious. However, when we checked in, there were several areas that hadn’t been cleaned. I had to clean the toilet seat in our bathroom attached to our bedroom before I could even use it. LOTS of cobwebs in the windows, heavy dust on the light fixtures, VERY WORN couches in all rooms, a big piece of tile was missing from the middle of the kitchen floor so it hurt your foot every time you walked in the kitchen, my husband had to switch one of the hall bathrooms flush handles with one of the bedroom bathrooms bc it was broken, one of the dryers didn’t blow out hot air so the clothes wouldn’t dry, none of the remotes were in the right rooms for the tvs so most of them didn’t work…mainly the big one in the tv room so that was disappointing, a couple of the handles were loose and would barely turn the water off in the bathtubs, the big shower with all the jets in it couldn’t turn the temp down so they weren’t able to shower in there…and there was a significant amount mouse poop by the back couch by the window. It was on the end table, back of the couch and all over the floor in this area. My husband did call and give them this list, so hopefully they get some stuff fixed and cleaned around there soon. We still managed to have a great time together, but for the money we spent, and all the things wrong, it was definitely overpriced and quite disappointing.

The location was great, the cabin was overall good plenty of kitchen amenities, dishes, silverware, pots, pans overall good. Have enough towels and linen for every guests. However!!! There are bedbugs in the sofas on the couches in the Theater room. I was the only family member who slept and really hung out in the movie room. My dad did complain of a bite after being in the movie room watching tv with me. My legs were attacked. I also had bite marks on my shoulders and arms. I am a nurse and as I emailed the property manager to inform them that I know bedbug bites and what they look like. I also informed them about the very very worn couches which had large holes in the couches and pillows. Large enough that cotton and the springs were exposed across the back of the couches.If they can handle those matters this would be the perfect cabin for a large family up to 20 and had I not been bitten up which I have photos of I would have given them perfect scores. But please be aware because bedbugs come out when it’s dark and warm, they love moist warm body temperatures. Spraying for regular pest control will not solve the issue. Those couches need to be hauled away to a dump and that carpet needs to be ripped up in the movie room……
