We had a pleasant stay. It is clean and pretty rustic. Some newer remodels. It was only my husband and I so we stayed downstairs. The one bed is very squeaky and the sheets are uncomfortable,kitchen is small but otherwise it was nice. There really was not a view. Large trees in the way It is in a little neighborhood so not isolated. Price was a little higher than other places we’ve stayed, but overall good.

We're glad you had a pleasant stay and enjoyed the clean, rustic feel of the place. We'll look into the squeaky bed, and we're sorry the sheets on the bed during your stay weren't comfortable for you - there are three sets that get rotated. We also apologize for the misunderstanding about the view, as we weren't aware it was described that way. As for pricing, that's market driven and set by the listing agency. Thanks for sharing your feedback.

September 22- 25, 2026This cabin has great potential. The communication with the host was fast and cordial. The property was easy to find and had good access. Unfortunately, the property does need some attention regarding cleanliness and heating. The furnace was not working during our visit. If this is a known issue, it should be noted in the VRBO listing, and supplemental space heaters should be provided. The pillowcases and sheets had obviously been left wet in the washer far too long before being dried. You know that smell when you smell it.I hope the owner and Evolve can get some of these details fixed. If they do, this could be a great place. To the general public: The description of the property on VRBO is a bit misleading. For example, I didn’t see any spectacular views from the cabin. Make sure that you contact the host with a few questions before you rent.

We're glad the communication and check-in process worked well for you and that the cabin was easy to find. The furnace hadn't been energized yet given the warm weather this season, which is why it wasn't running during your stay. On the linens, we've spoken with the cleaning service and more dryer sheets are the appropriate fix going forward. As for the views mentioned, we weren't previously aware of that listing language and appreciate you flagging it.

This was a nightmare of a trip. If I have one regret in my life, it is booking this cabin. The place was incredibly dusty to the point that I was having an allergic reaction (swollen, watery eyes, scratchy throat, sneezing). There was a bug infestation, and I took a total of at least 8 pictures of the bugs we had inside while we were there. The kitchen was very ill-equipped (no mixing bowls, no salt, only one roll of paper towels available, no cheese grater, only one non-stick pan that was very old and scratched and cooked very unevenly because the bottom was no longer flat), and had an oven that fell out when we opened it. The patio was NOTHING like in the pictures and included no patio furniture and had tarps held down by concrete blocks that looked as though it was staving off some sort of needed repair. The steps at the front door are not steps at all and are just cinderblocks stacked up. As someone with a recent ankle surgery, this was a massive safety issue. Additionally, the kitchen island is on wheels, so when we leaned on it, it moved and almost fell over. The kitchen looks like it was homeowner remodel project, but none of the wood surfaces are adequately sanded nor actually sealed, which means massive risk of food-borne illness. There were cigarette burns in two of the couches. Everything looks like it's at least 30 years old, incuding the lights (which flickered the entire time we were there), sheets, and pillows (had staining). I am yet to get refunded.
