Pros
-Clean, modern, well-kept home with nice appliances, tall ceilings, open floor plan, ceiling fans
-Great screened in porch where we ate meals and could enjoy forest scenery (with rooster and chicken sounds from neighbors :)
-Plenty of towels, soap provided
-kids could play in the yard
Cons
-Poor phone service
-Very weak WiFi therefore couldn’t use TV (Netflix, Amazon Prime or YouTube TV) or other devices (battery also low in firestick remote)
-Poor water pressure - would take hours to fill master tub (no light above tub either)
-Upper floor is humid and warm
-Master bedroom pillows too poofy, gave neck/backache
-In master bedroom, you can hear everyone above you on upper floor every footstep they take (noisy if trying to sleep)
-dead smell (we had to search around and found a dead squirrel in the wood burning stove- why couldn’t Vacasa check for this before people check in? I texted them and they came and disposed of it).
-Watch for poison Ivy in yard
-Info online and in the binder do not match and/or is outdated: wrong wifi info on Vacasa webpage, wrong TV user info in binder- made it unusable.
-Remote area hard to find with steep driveway (especially at night, in the pouring rain, with no power at the house, which is how we arrived to check in).
-Overall poor Vacasa communication
