Beautiful place to stay!

This property was absolutely perfect for our weekend getaway. The house was close to town, yet private; felt very cabin-like, yet had beautiful and efficient conveniences; and featured charming decor. It was a great place to stay, and we will most certainly be back!

The cabin was nice plenty of room for 4 adult and 1 small child, there were some issues with a door knob that they sent someone over to fix and the sink faucet was loose. The grill should thrown out as it is severely degraded and maybe not safe. Also there was a substantial mandatory damage deposit that was not on the description, they also send this back in a check after 2 weeks. While the place was nice I would not rent from this company again.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you brought these items to our attention during your stay, as it allowed our team to address them promptly. Based on your comments, along with feedback from another recent guest, the grill has since been replaced to ensure a better experience moving forward. Regarding the security/damage deposit, it is clearly outlined in the listing prior to booking and is consistent with the value and quality of the home. We also take pride in being responsive and available to our guests throughout their stay, something that is not always the case with privately managed rentals, and we’re committed to continuing that level of service. We appreciate your feedback and the opportunity to improve.

The cabin is well represented in the listing. When we arrived there was a lamp hanging off the wall and the upstairs power was out. We called and the issue was attended to promptly. Our disappointment was in the property itself, a large rusty old burn barrel was in the firepit area along with some other old linoleum semi buried in the ground. Appears the spot was a bit of a dumping ground at some point. I would suggest the managers or owners invest in some outdoor clean up and maybe a picnic table or some where to sit and eat as a family as the indoors only offers a 2 seat bar and a folding table to eat meals. It is also much closer to the main road then I thought it would be. I may have missed that detail in the listing.

Beautiful and super cozy cabin! Felt right at home.l as soon as we walked in the door. We loved the outdoor fire pit, very relaxing. This is close to town yet far enough away in a private setting nestled in the woods. Very quiet area with respectful guests all around us. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a nice relaxing place to stay for a weekend or even a week away.

Beautiful Spot

My husband and I love Old Forge. I’ve gone there my whole life and we wanted a special cabin for our honeymoon so we found this place. It was beautiful and a great location. We did think from the listing it had water access which is doesn’t but it was fine because we didn’t mind. Other than that everything was great!

We were not happy with the accommodations at all. The code we were given at check-in was wrong. It took an additional 20 minutes to gain entrance to the cabin because we had to retrieve the correct code. I was told via email there would be a picnic table and upon arrival saw that was false. The cabin sleeps 6 but there is only seating for two at a small bar. There were cobwebs under all the chairs. The grill was disgusting and should be thrown out. There was no dishwasher and no air conditioning. The remote to the TV was hidden in a cubby and the property manager had to come look for it. The power went out for 8 hours and the generator didn't have a battery in it. It was too far from the beach and next to a major road with lots of traffic. I would not recommend staying here but Nathan at property management was very helpful.

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that your stay did not meet your expectations. To clarify a few points for future guests, the check-in code provided at check-in was correct; however, there was some difficulty operating the lockbox, and a member of our team promptly came to assist you on-site. Similarly, the TV remote was located on the shelf directly beneath the television, and our staff was happy to help locate it during your stay. The property listing accurately reflects the amenities offered. It does not advertise a dishwasher, air conditioning, or a generator, and the location, including proximity to Route 28 and distance to the beach, is clearly shown in both the description and map. We encourage all guests to review these details carefully when selecting a property to ensure it aligns with their preferences. Regarding the power outage, this was an area-wide issue that lasted approximately four hours and was outside of our control. While the generator did experience a malfunction, we made efforts to address the situation as quickly as possible under the circumstances. We do appreciate your comments regarding cleanliness and outdoor amenities and will review these items with our team to ensure they meet our standards moving forward. We are also glad to hear that Nathan was helpful during your stay, and we will be sure to share your kind words with him.

somewhat disappointing...

someone should have been aware of plumbing issues and addressed them prior to our arrival. Finding that two sinks were draining into pots and pans was a bit of a surprise They overflowed, creating messes that we then has to deal with. The wi-fi shut down every evening at roughly 10 PM, leaving us unable to access TV, internet, etc. Coffee grounds were found in the coffee pot when we went to make coffee. All of this info has been shared with property manager. Not our best experience with VRBO or other similar entities.

This was a horrible. The code given at check-in was the wrong code. It took us an additional 20 minutes to gain entrance to the cabin. I had emailed if there was a picnic table and was told yes. Once there, there was not picnic table. It sleeps 6 but there is only seating for two. There were cobwebs under all the chairs. The grill was disgusting and should be thrown out. There is no dishwasher and no air conditioning. The remote to the TV was hidden in a cubby and the property manager had to come look for it. The power went out for 8 hours and the generator didn't have a battery in it. The owners are trying to sell the property and don't care about the renters at all. Do NOT stay there. It was too far from the beach and next to a major road with lots of traffic.
