This place has probably one of, if not the prettiest views from the back deck that you are likely to find in Saluda! In fact, I don’t believe I’ve ever done a rental on the east coast that had a view like this. It is very, very nice… not spectacular, but REALLY nice! Additionally, the cabin is well secluded. There are some other cabins nearby, but they are not super close, and they are not easily seen. In fact, we never saw another human for the four days we were there!
The cabin is kind of cute. There is ample parking for two cars, and I suspect you’d likely find room for three. The fire pit is just about 50 feet from the cabin and is a nice “addition”. Everything was well stocked, and everything functioned as it should.
The deck really could use some maintenance. It’s not dangerous or anything like that, but it could use a coat of stain and needs to be sealed. A new one will likely be needed within the next few years. Similarly, the wooden floors inside the cabin really could use refinishing, but it’s strictly cosmetic.
Two of the bedrooms do NOT have air conditioners, and this includes the master bedroom. Fortunately, there are ceiling fans in every room, and additional box fans were provided. We were there in early September 2022 and it was acceptable, but just barely. You might find it necessary to leave your bedroom door open at night to allow the air conditioning from the main living area to reach you.
I specified that we would have a dog with us. On the top right of the listing I clicked and saw the itemization that included various “indescript” fees. In most other listings the “dog fee” was included in there, so I assumed this was the case with Tiger Pause. It turns out that the dog fee was NOT included there. Upon messaging the management company, I was informed there was a rather high dog fee that “… is clearly stated on all of our pet friendly listings”. When I looked for it, I found that if I clicked on the “View More” under “About This Rental” and scrolled down three screens (at least on my computer) that on the third to the last line it read “There is a "---" non-refundable Pet Fee. (This is NOT automatically added by VRBO, … ". It was quite hidden and not at all obvious.
The daily rate for the rental was listed as xxx per night, but our four-night stay totaled more than NINE times that!
Bottom line, it’s a great place, but don’t let the low nightly rate fool you!
