Great location! Close to everything in nice neighborhood and great parking .We had issue with WiFi but that could have probably been solved we just did not have time . Everything was good , only suggestion is may want to put a shower mat in downstairs shower. Very slippery. Overall, everything was great and would stay there again. Highly recommend this cabin !

Thank you Jeanie, yes I think I mentioned the network is misslabled and which one to use, but I do not think you ever got back to it. There is a matt for the shower in the closet, I am sorry you didnt see it. Maybe we need to mnake it more visable. It is a great cabin for exploring the area.
We hope to see you again soon.

The cabin itself is an amazing cabin. ADA accessable, close to everything, not too windy of a road, very "homey". However, there were a lot of cleanliness issues. I was able to talk to the host, to which he let me know they were coming to clean the carpets after we left (a couple of days later), and that he would do a walk through to check on the issues (bugs, mold on shower liner, trash and such in couch, other sanitary issues, dust/cobwebs everywhere). Walt was helpful after I contacted VRBO and had them help with it. I had to sanitize everything to feel comfortable, but the cabin overall was nice. Honestly, I would stay again, as long as the issues were addressed.

We stayed for four days, and the only issue I had was with the twin bed mattresses. They were a little on the lumpy side. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay and would definitely rent this property. We also had a bear visit on our first night. The bear opened the car doors and checked out the car. Got in the front drivers side door and left through the passenger door. No damage, but he/she left the doors open. It was kind of exciting.

Thank you Sally for choosing The Great Escape for your vacation destination, we are glad you enjoyed your stay. Seeing a bear is pretty rare and you are right sort of exciting. It is amazing how they can open car doors if they are left unlocked. We look forward to seeing you again soon! Walt from Cabins in the Clouds
The cabin was perfect. My host made me feel very welcoming and made sure that if I needed anything to call him. We had a wonderful time and will return.

I HAVE NEVER IN MY LIFE BEEN SO DISAPPOINTED IN A PLACE MY FAMILY CHOSE FOR OUR YEARLY VACATION. THE ROOM WAS NASTY AS WERE THE BATHROOMS , SHOWER AND TUB BOTH HAD HAIRS IN THEM, NO BROOM OR MOP TO CLEAN WITH , AND NOT TO MENTION A FOR SALE SIGN WAS PLACED IN FRONT YARD AND THAT IN TURN HAD PEOPLE STOPPING TO LOOK AT PROPERTY . AT ONE POINT HAD TO SIT IN ROAD AND WAIT ON 2 CARS TO BACK OUT SO WE COULD PULL IN. DISHES HAD TO BE CLEANED BEFORE WE COULD USE THEM. I COULD GO ON BUT IM NOT GONNA WASTE MY TIME. NOT WHAT THE AD CLAIMS

Thank you for your feedback. I’m very sorry to hear that your stay did not meet expectations, especially for your annual family vacation.
Cleanliness is extremely important to us, and the condition you described is not consistent with our standards or typical guest experience. We will be addressing this with our cleaning team to ensure everything is being thoroughly checked between stays.
We also appreciate your note about not having a broom or dustpan available and will make sure those are added for guest use.
Regarding the for-sale sign, the property being listed does not affect guest stays, though I understand how the additional traffic could be frustrating and will take that into consideration moving forward.
We appreciate you bringing these concerns to our attention.

Overall a great experience. My only complaint is that the beds are really hard and uncomfortable to sleep on.

House was clean. We had originally planned to bring our dogs, but opted out at the last minute, kinda expected a "dog" smell, but was very clean. Easy to get to property. Hosts directions were spot on. Would definitely rent again.
