The cabin was very pretty, appears newly remodeled, very cute, very clean. The mattresses and bed frames were not great, not terribly comfortable and very creaky. The only real issue we had was the water was full of mud, in the toilets, in the sinks, in the hot tub. It was not usable at all until the service person came and changed a filter in the house. Still mud in toilets. Also, there was not nearly enough hot water. We had to stagger showers hours apart or take a literally cold shower. The location is nice, very pretty, very peaceful. We saw numerous deer crossing the lawns. The game room and the theater room were huge hits! Kept the kids busy. I probably would stay here again, but only if they fix the muddy water issue and the hot water issue.
My booking with RedAwning went smoothly. I was a little nervous because I had never heard of them before. But everything is legit and went well. I saved $50 by booking directly through their website instead of a third party.
The extra money we had to pay after paying the rent was ridiculous. They charge $600 for a cleaning fee. The communications is horrible and I would never go through this company or use this company even as an owner. The owners lose money because of the ridiculous fees they charge you after paying the rent. I’m sure many people just closed the window.

Hello - Thank you for your feedback. While we do encourage our hosts to offer the most upfront and transparent pricing possible, we unfortunately have very little control on how fees are disclosed on each individual booking site. We will be taking your feedback to our account rep at your booking site as well as looking at our own internal fields for any adjustments that can be made to prevent this sort of experience for future guests. Again we do appreciate your review as we strive to make every booking experience a 5 star experience.
All the info regarding the booking was concise and easy to follow.No complications made for a smooth experience. Follow up was provided to complete the booking
We loved the layout. It was the perfect size as a base for our small family reunion. My 97 yr old mom had no issues moving around with her walker.
The deck was great for everyone to sit and chat about old times.
Would have loved to have grill tools available and a sponge or dish cloth for cleaning up. We were able to source those and it didn't impact our experience.
TODAY IS THE DAY OF MY EVENT! I find out TODAY not the day I booked and PAID in FULL that I now have to pay an additional $600 in which $100 will be refunded…..majority of the details on this listing IS UNTRUE the host called me today at 11am (supposed to check in at 3pm) and they claim to not have received any messages I sent in here BEFORE booking as well as sending me the wrong check in info. I paid $336 for this stay as well as $41 that Vrbo charged my card and now today another $600 needed is insane……. I AM UNABLE TO BE REFUNDED AND I WONT BE ALLOWED TO EVEN UTILIZE THE SPACE

Hello - Thank you for your feedback and your patience in working with our team to come to a resolution. We do sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and a full refund has been authorized for you.
They charged a $205.00 cleaning fee that was not disclosed when the reservation was made. This fee was as much on the rate to stay in the room. The rate on the site was misleading.

Hello - Thank you for your feedback. While we do encourage our hosts to offer the most upfront and transparent pricing possible, we unfortunately have very little control on how fees are disclosed on each individual booking site. Cleaning fees especially are very common on traditional vacation rental booking sites but may not be well disclosed on traditional hotel booking sites. We will be taking your feedback to our account rep at your booking site as well as looking at our own internal fields for any adjustments that can be made to prevent this sort of experience for future guests.

No one sent us a code to get into the condo. It was not in spam. After emails, texts, and calling we finally got a text with the code to get in on the day we were to arrive. When we arrived, no one sent us the gate code to let us in to park. Thankfully, my daughter is an owner and on the board of the HOA and she sent me the parking code otherwise we would have not been able to park. The unit is also not the one I originally booked. We have zero view.
Day before check in and I have received to check in instructions. Called twice asking for instructions. No tesponse.
