It was a very clean and nice place. The porch is lovely with some views of the mountains, you have to sit in just the right spots on the porch to get the best views.

Weekend get away fun
Great cabin with great views. Loved the cabin and all the amenities. Loved playing pool and Foosball. Clean and comfortable. Would definitely stay again.
We had workers on a project nearby staying at the house for 2 weeks. It was an interesting drive up in the work trucks but definitely do-able. The house was clean. The hot water doesn't last very long; but management is going to address this. They were very responsive to our request. Great alternative to an expensive hotel for 3 people. We will stay again if we return.

Great way to unplug
Enjoyed our weekend stay. Went up to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary. Cabin was nice and peaceful, secluded, no highway/city noise. It was a much needed unplug weekend for me and leisure trip.

A great location that needs a little TLC.
We loved the setting, the view, and it's positioned well for outdoor recreation, access to Dilliardsville, Sylva, and WCU. It needs a little freshening up and some additional amenities.
Great views and very well stocked with everything we need. Is advertising as not having a washer and dryer, and that would be a great addition for long stays.

Mountain trip
Great view. If it were mine , I would have 2 more trees cut to get a better view of the mountain..
No real complaints other than master bedroom bed needs to be replaced. It totally sinks into the middle. We actually went downstairs and used that bedroom/bed for the last two nights because of this.

Steep drive but great view
Pros- the location, space, game room, plenty of towels and bedding. Cons-no washer or dryer, no Wi-Fi, steep windy drive. Overall great stay just be prepared with a hotspot and firewood to enjoy the fireplace and Roku tv.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
The location was perfect. It was close to several towns that had lots of fun things to do. The house was very cozy, the view was amazing and we really enjoyed playing pool and foosball with our kids. A few complaints we have, are that the cleaners need to look higher than eye level. There was a ton of dust and cobwebs on the walls and in the corners of the ceilings. That's an easy fix, though. The dishwasher was moldy and needs to be replaced. Also, if you are there during the week, don't plan to drink your morning coffee on the porch. There is an asphalt plant just down the mountain and it smelled really strong in the morning. Other than those things, we definitely recommend staying here, especially if you have kids!
The home wasn’t dirty but it wasn’t as clean as I would hope or expect. A pile of blankets shoved in a closet unwashed and stained, coffee still in the coffee pot, lots of dead bugs in the windows, and long brown hair on the shower wall. It didn’t feel too dirty to stay in but too dirty for the price, I’d say. Other than that however, great location near the cute towns of Dillsboro and Sylva, which both have nice restaurants and breweries. The pictures of the views are false advertising as they must be at least a few years old judging by current tree growth. The house is large and the foosball and pool table are a fun addition. Satellite TV, VHS, and DVDs are outdated and I think just having WiFi so that use of the living room smart tv would be more accommodating for most guests.

Thank you for sharing your feedback, Peggy. We regret to hear that you were unhappy with this property. We will work with our management team to make improvements, and we hope for the opportunity to host you again!
Bella Vista was a great cabin for our family (2 adults and 3 children). The views of the mountains were peaceful, fun game room in basement along with 3 bed bedroom, which was great for kids. 2 Masters on main floor. Downsides: water rationing. We did not run out with 5ppl for 6 days, but we were very careful about usage, opting for bottled water, hand sanitizer and quick showers. Also the road getting to the cabin is very steep, gravel and has many switchbacks. Not for FWD vehicles.

We are pleased to hear you enjoyed your visit! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your valuable feedback with us. We are sorry for any issues you encountered during your stay. We passed your comments along to our local manager to review and we appreciate guests ’ preferences as a means to continually improve. We look forward to hosting your next stay!
Exposed electric wires, live roaches crawling on walls and floors, mold, live spiders and cobwebs through out house, windows and doors filthy, too much to even list. The rules in the welcome book are outrageous you might as well sit in the dark, don’t use the water or the heat or air. Praise God we were able to be moved to another rental after 8 hours of phone calls, emails and pictures to prove the home was unfit.

I was a little nervous to stay in this cabin because of previous reviews, but it truly was an amazing place to stay! Here are my pros and cons of our trip (2 nights, 6 adults, no kids): PROS- Property owners have cleared the trees blocking the view so the back porch is AMAZING.- Lots of entertainment to make up for no internet. TV, Board Games, Fooseball, Pool, etc.- Each duo in our party had access to their own bathroom/shower. - Clean and tidy inside. - Kitchen was equipped with everything we needed to cook all of our own meals. CONS- The drive is confusing and the instructions aren’t great. I ended up having to screenshot a map and put arrows so our companions could find the cabin.- Older home and furniture. This wasn’t an issue for us at all but don’t expect every obscure corner to be scrubbed clean and have fancy new furniture/appliances.- No wifi, but we had great cell service and the entertainment provided made up for it!- BEDS. I was truly hoping that the previous reviews were just people complaining but no.. the beds are terribly uncomfortable. Especially if you are sleeping two to a bed. I suggest that the owners reinforce the mattress in the master bedroom so that it doesn’t sag, and add a foam pad or topper to the other upstairs bed for more comfort. It was brutal.- Trash Cans were overflowing when we arrived, but the VACASA folks took care of that quick. - Safety of the porch. The railing on the back porch is flimsy. Beware if bringing kids.

It was Ok
Location is great. Secluded from the real world and quite. The heat didn't work, it worked, but there was space heaters in the closets in the bottom floor for a reason. It was too cold down there for my kids to sleep and they slept on the couch upstairs. I do appreciate the caretaker who was super helpful when we arrived and our thermostat was locked out, as in- needed a code to change anything. Be prepared to be cold if you are planning on using the bottom floor and the road isn't as bad as some say, wouldn't recommend going at night and Cowee Tunnel is literally down at the bottom of the mountain, look it up and go explore, just remember the train runs daily.

We appreciate you letting us know that there is room for improvement and will follow up with the appropriate parties regarding your feedback.

We chose this house for the view, and that was definitely magnificent. Pictures of interior were apparently from years ago, as the house was dark, with an old and tired look. The weather was cool our first few days, but we realized when the weather switched to hot that the air conditioning was barely functioning. Directions for ceiling fan remote and tv would have been much appreciated. The 120-page manufacturer’s manuel was no help to someone not familiar with Dish and Roku. Kitchen is well stocked, but needs some small to medium pots. Beds were comfortable, and house was clean.

Sent a review to Vacasa, never heard anything back from them. Of course, my review was never post
Old and run down. Property management is not responsive to customers. Electronic lock not working when we arrived on Thursday night, reported it. Never heard back from Vacasa till a few hours before we checked out on Monday, asked if I still needed it fixed ??? Basement was dark because of lighting and musty smelling. No view on the deck, tree limbs grown over. Never again with Vacasa !
