If youâre a renter, I highly recommend reading this before booking.While the cabin is secluded and has potential, there were several serious concerns during our stay.At 2:00 PM, just two hours before our 4:00 PM check-in, the host called to say the previous guests were involved in an altercation, broke furniture, and smoked inside the cabin. She said she would be âozoningâ the property but never asked about allergies or sensitivities. The cleaning clearly suffered as a result: the floors were extremely sticky and dirty, trash was left in a bathroom, and there were visible cigarette burn marks on the kitchen curtains.The path from the parking area to the cabin is another major issue. It consists of loose pebbles and is very hazardous, especially for older guests, children, or anyone with mobility concerns. In wet or snowy conditions, this would pose a serious fall risk.We informed the host prior to booking that weâd be bringing a pet, which she approved. However, no pet fee was included in the booking confirmation. Instead of contacting us directly, the host contacted VRBO and told them we didnât inform her.We received a message implying we were avoiding the fee. This was frustrating, as we had no issue paying, it simply wasnât charged. When questioned, the host claimed she didnât contact VRBO, which VRBO later confirmed was untrue.The issue wasnât the pet fee. It was poor cleanliness, safety risks, and misleading communication that made this stay far below expectations.
