A 7 day disaster in Vilas

The previous occupants were inconsiderate slobs. The cleaning crew did not have anywhere the time they needed to clean up the cabin. Dishes were put back on the shelves dirty with food on dishes and with a clean plate on top, main commode flush handle was broken and never fixed, had to lift the toilet top, reach in filthy water and then flush , Jacuzzi had dirt in it and beer bottle cap all over area. A glass bottle was in freezer, exploded and sent glass and liquid all over the ice tray. Have rented from vrbo/Blue Rental many times and this was absolutely the worst experience ever. Spent thousands on renting for the Thanksgiving week for my family and was Totally amazed that I was offered only $300 back! I expected 3-4 times that amount back so that it was a no-win/ loss for vrbo Blue Ridge rental and owner. Had to get someone to come in to show how to light the lower floor fireplace. Owner should have detailed instructions on how to use all devices in condo.

50 th Anniversary Weekend

Our family enjoyed our weekend at Carolina Charm. Very well supplied kitchen, plenty of entertainment opportunities inside and out. Plenty of room for the kids to play outside. A large table so we all could sit down together for every meal. Great place for multiple families.

nice vacation home, sleeps 14

Great house Great house, well appointed. Sleeps 14 comfortably. Loved the fire pit, kids loved the hot tub. Road in is pretty steep. Too much kitchen hardware, plates bowls that could be reduced to give more organized shelf space. After the price I paid, they should provide more toilet paper and towels. In the fridge, the bottom shelf on the door was broken when we arrived. The trash collector picked up the trash before we got the trash out on Monday morning. He left a bunch of un-bagged stuff in the bottom of the yard cart. All minor. The bad news is that the main level bedroom with two queen beds seemed top have fleas. 4 of our kids age 7 to 10, have bites and two families are having to treat their clothes and luggage with pest spray and special washing. I suggest that you make your lovely vacation home pet free. (which is hard to enforce)

Supplies

Our stay at Carolina Charm was absolutely wonderful. The view were awesome and the house was great! We spent a long weekend with 10 people and there was plenty of room and plenty rooms. This house is huge. Ping pong , pool and corn hole was a winner for our family and the jacuzzi and fire pit were icing on the cake. I give it a 4.5 star and not a 5 simply because the lack of supplies was a little annoying. The kitchen was well equipped with more pots and pans that you can use but there were no cleaning products at all. A very tiny bottle of dish soap and a couple of packets for the dish washer. We had to go out and get garbage bags, foil, dish soap, dish detergent etc. So if you stay here just come with supplies. A all in one cleaner for the counters and paper towels. I know this sounds picky but it would be nice to know prior. Do not let this deter you from staying here..it’s pretty awesome.
