No customer service. We had several issues- some quite serious, and it took 3 days ( we only stayed 5) to get any of them addressed. It was obvious our business was not important. I’ve requested a refund, but have yet to hear back. I would not stay here. If I could give 0 stars, I would!

Enjoyed our stay, pool and hot tub were working. property is beautiful, very quiet. best thing is listening to the creek on the side porch! the only thing I will say is the side porch door needs to be fixed the knob fell off the whole time we stayed and we couldn’t get that door to lock which is unsafe being that anyone could get into the home from the porch access. Over all would stay here again

Wonderful getaway!

We rented this house with our teenage children and close friends to celebrate a 50th birthday. It was a wonderful week! We loved looking at the mountain while relaxing on the creek-side screened-in porch. The cows in the meadow behind the house were fun to watch and say hello to. Location is close to Cherokee, Sylva, and Bryson City. We didn't turn the TV on once. We used the WiFi to find adventures for the next day. We are planning on booking this house again in the fall for another milestone birthday. If you're looking for a place to spend time visiting and relaxing with friends and family, this is your place!

This location could be wonderful if they would keep up with the maintenance on the property, I would have chosen a different location with a working hot tub, a working oven and with door handles that were not broken.

Family meeting together from all over NC

We lloved out time together there. Nice place. But needs a few repairs. None interfered with our stay but a few minor things that would be affordable and easy fixes now but will turn into expensive issues later like two places in roof over pool and hot tub . Looks like maybe wind bowed one piece up causing a gap and also a place that has a hole. Both easy fixes now . And screen on porch needs to be stapled down so random animal doesn’t get in or someone’s getting out. Neither of these things interfered with our trip. It was very nice but not so nice that you were scared to put your feet up on the coffee table. Felt like home but with a better view and awesome things to do without ever leaving the house. Unfortunately we had so many things planned that I wasn’t able to hang around the house more . Very nice to be able to sit down to eat with everyone at the very large dining table. We will definitely be returning. I do suggest if you like watching tv a lot is to bring your own dvd’s

If the owner sees this, you should fire your property manager. The repairs that were previously reported on reviews before ours HAVE NOT BEEN DONE. The photos DO NOT REPRESENT the current condition of this property. It is SEVERELY run down. We had a party of 10, had a half roll of toilet paper in each bathroom, no backup. Dishes were still in dish washer. Side porch not swept. Dead birds on back porch, one of which had been there some time. Cleaning crew was supposed to have been there at 1 p.m. We checked in at 3 p.m. Cookware not adequate for large parties. Stair case not stable. Oven does not hold temperature. Called the property manager, they said "the cleaning staff was there today, there shouldn't be a problem" I informed "if there wasn't a problem, I wouldn't be calling" The walkway leading from the front to the side porch has wood that is rotted, sharp, and collapsed. If someone missteps, this is a trip to the ER. The gutters have saplings growing out of them. The side porch has a hole in the screen which allows animals and debris to get in. The door from the dining room to the side porch not fixed. This is a shame, this house was once beautiful and could be again with the proper attention. If I could upload the video, it would do better justice.

Great family vacation home

This is the second year we have stayed at Meadow Creek Manor. Last year we enjoyed the pool and were disappointed when told it was closed. It didn’t lessen the fun we had. We set up a big kiddie pool for the young ones and they loved it. Someone had built a rock dam across the creek and the water running through the rocks was wonderful. sitting on the screened porch listening to the creek, so relaxing. The fire pit was a big hit with all especially the teens! The neighbors cows were a big hit also. Plenty of room for the family. The location is so convenient to activities and grocery stores. This is our choice for future vacations.

Beautiful spacious home

There was plenty of space, nice hot tub, and pool but needs some maintenance. House was clean. Nice creek to side of screened in porch. A great place if you love nature. Kitchen had everything you needed to cook a meal. Wifi worked well for us. Conveniently located to Bryson City and Cherokee. Nice and quiet. Home needs regular maintenance upkeep. I feel something's are being a little neglected. No ball for game table upstairs, no tips on darts, we were only provided 3 towels and no extra blankets air was on 66* air conditioner and it was freezing at night time.

nice location but poorly maintained

We enjoyed the location, pool, and screened porch, however the overall property was poorly maintained- porch needs rescreening, pool shower leaked into adjacent master bedroom, porch door handle was broken and fell out constantly, no outside trash receptacle, gas grill , TVs did not work, no vacuum, not enough mugs, cereal bowls(2), or silverware for the 10 people, substandard pots, kitchen knives, light bulbs were out, We did enjoy the location, pool, and setting.

The pictures are old. Upon arrival we discovered a leak in the powder room, the side french door handle fell off and would not lock, the door in the mb would blow open and would not lock. The internet never worked, the hot tub was broken, the water in the master bath tub would not turn on. There was a half burnt cigar on the patio table and pile of bird poop at the entrance of the screen porch and front door. The deck walkway in the front had holes and was rotten and unsafe to walk on. These along with several other items were terrible. Until the property is renovated and updated stay away.

Do not stay

If I could give zero stars I would. We knew coming to the property wifi would be spotty and the house needed some TLC. We rented for our son's graduation from WCU thinking his disability needs would be met and his friends. First, most outside doors coming into home don't lock. We entered thru the front door finding door to porch and entrance to yard wide open. Doors would not lock. TV in living room broken, wifi would not work and couldn't even make emergency calls. This is a huge issue having special need guests. Later we found the oven didn't work and the pilot light was out. We had no way to cook unless using the microwave. I called the rental group with our issues, never received a call back. Had to call vrbo for help. We originally thought about staying longer before arrival, but with all these issues we will not return. Do not recommend, especially this rental group

Girls’ Trip

This house has so much potential! It has so much space and a great kitchen and screened in porch that overlooks the stream. With better cleaning, some minor repairs, and the use of the pool, it would be amazing! It really felt like false advertising regarding the pool. When we arrived, there was a sign stating the pool was closed. One of the main reasons we rented this house was because it had a pool. To arrive and find out we couldn’t use it (and it was not ready for use) was extremely frustrating. There were 2 doors that couldn’t be locked, and one door handle kept falling off. There were a lot of minor things with cleaning that were not done well. The dryer was not working and wet towels were left in it. We found them on our second day there. It was definitely disappointing!

Needs serious cleaning and maintenance

I would not recommend this place unless they do some serious cleaning and some maintenance work. The pool was green. The hot tub was green, the pool hose that you clean it with was laying out the hot tub‘s motor was exposed to very unsafe trash in the trash cans, major lightbulbs out screened in porch furniture was dirty There was a dirty ashtray as well. The sink upstairs was clogged, would not recommend. It is very sad because the house has so much potential it is in a beautiful neighborhood. I also blame Vrbo. I stayed in contact every day was told someone would come out to fix the problems and they never did

Our stay at Meadow

After unloading, checking out the house which was nice we noticed the internet which was advertised as intermittent was actuality non-existent. Thetecwas no signal atvall. No tv, no phone service unless you left the property. We called from in close to Whittier and was promised help. We never received a service call during our time there. We texted with the management various times, not once did someone show up so to make plans with our teens we brought with us we had to leave the property. We had to leave to plan thr reunion we were there for. The pool was unavailable, the foosball table had no ball, the air hockey table had no puck. The dart board had no darts. There were 2 decks of cards, one with 50 the other with 51. We did enjoy the screened in porch that we could see and hear the creek running. The cows next door were somewhat entertaining. The trash cans were full when we got there so nowhere to put our trash. I would not recommend this property unless all you wanted to do was sleep, eat and spend time alone with no access to what the area provides, which is alot! n s with our family wecwere there

Out in Nature, Close to Town

Overall we enjoyed our stay in this area. The drive into both Bryson City and Cherokee was 15 - 20 minutes, but the location was remote enough to feel out of town. The house was well laid out and clean, but there are some things that need to be done to make it really live up to it's potential. A few repairs and updates would make this 100% a five star stay. The main issue we had was with the internet connection. There was no cable service, so streaming was the only option for TV. It was not satellite, but DSL and the speed was not enough to support TV streaming. The pool was out of service while we were there, but we were informed prior to arrival and Vacasa provided a small refund in compensation. Other issues were just general things that needed to be repaired. Several of the doors leading outside had broken handles and the one in the master didn't seal shut so there were always bugs coming in around the cracks. Same with the door from the screened porch to the outside. The only reason it stayed partly closed was a hook latch, but the door was warped so the bottom half didn't close at all and that porch overall was not in the best shape, so we didn't end up using it as we would have liked.
