Me and my son take a birthday trip every year for the past probably nine or 10 years and for the first time when we checked in and opened the door to the Condo, there was a birthday cake and decorations for my birthday. It was a first for my birthday trip and it was an amazing thoughtful day birthday gift. . We had a blast. We didn’t run into any issues. Would definitely stay there again.

Nice and tidy little cabin, beautiful views and setting - Vacasa managed though…

Great spot just outside of Townsend. We go down a couple times a year to hike and fish. We were pleasantly surprised at the property, some previous reviews made it sound not too appealing, but was clean and perfectly fine. Only issue is that the property is managed by Vacasa, which I thought wasn’t allowed by Vrbo. The Vacasa check in and “Identity verification” is clunky and seems like a scam. They threatened to cancel my reservation because I didn’t answer the scammy sounding call and voicemail - even though I booked and paid through Vrbo.

Almost Heaven needs some work

Overall I give 4 of 5 stars. It’s is a diamond in the rough. The setting is gorgeous- views are amazing. The road to get to the cabin is not the stairway to heaven. The cabin itself is wonderful. The hot tub is not working and we were not notified of this prior to arrival. Again views are heavenly, thus the name fits. More trash bags and towels would have been great. Also needs some extra/throw blankets for the cold season. The fireplace gives a wonderful ambiance. Would stay again.

Don’t waste your money.

Dead bugs all over the place upon arrival including on furniture, beds and in cabinets on “clean”dishes. Furniture was incredible uncomfortable. Couch was covered in sticky stuff and recliner was broken. Beds were very uncomfortable. We didn’t get restful sleep the whole trip. Carpet was stained and disgusting. The cabin was generally outdated. For the price we paid I expected ALOT more comfort. Everything was so gross and uncomfortable that I was not able to relax. Waste of money.

Will not be coming back. Gross

I wish that I had looked at the reviews before booking. The entire house smelled like dog and pee. It was one of the worst smells I have ever experienced. We had to sleep with the doors open it was so bad. There were bugs everywhere when we got there. I messaged them and was told that the local staff was coming to help with the cleaning and smell and no one showed. Hot tub was broken which was one of the main reasons we wanted to stay there. We will not be coming back. The view was pretty but I will never stay in a place that is dirty like that again. You can tell the place didn’t get cleaned before we came. There was hair all over the bathtub, dirt around the sink, bugs in every area of the house and the smell was absolutely disgusting. For as much as we paid to stay here you would think it would be clean.

Tiny cabin, spectacular mountain views!

This cabin is perfect for 1-2 people who plan to spend most of their time either on the porch staring at the mountains, or out exploring the area. There unfortunately wasn’t any local tv available or wifi but there was plenty of service to use phones. The views make up for it though!

CONS - We had to wash all cookware, dishes, and utensils before use due to old food still on them - Bedding was all dirty - Pullout couch absolutely filthy with dead scorpion in mattress, stains/food, and a live wasp - Balcony railing flimsy and unsafe - Non-working hot tub - Satellite non-functional in living room - Needs a good update and deep clean - Residents firing unnecessary amounts of shots after dark (like 20-30 at a time) PROS - View - Privacy - Location (close to amenities) - Dishes, cookware, and utensils available - Working AC and fridge - Plenty of sleep space - Basic travel-size toiletries provided

This cabin was filthy. Crumbs on cabinet. Floors not swept or mopped. Furniture has not been dusted in who knows when. Carpet was so filthy you need to burn it. Hot tub broke. Cable in living room not working. Only in bedroom and the bed should be thrown out with cleaning crew. Only thing good was the view from porch. I should be compensated for staying there. I have been renting for years and this was the worst experience. The rental was through vacasa. I will never rent from them again and would not recommend them to another person or even a dog.
