Reviewer Comments:
We visited with another family (4 adults, 4 kids ages 5-8) for 4 nights and had plenty of room and space to enjoy ourselves. We loved the hot tub and sauna!! Attractions were around 15-30 min drive away, depending on where you're going, which is what we expected. Everything was very clean, but we all agreed the house would really benefit from the following changes: new family room couch (frame seems to be bent or broken), new mattresses in at least 2 of the King bedrooms (very hard, firm mattresses in there currently; affected our sleep), new dishwasher (it functioned, but was difficult to load/unload because the weight causes the bottom to fall out and it's also incredibly loud), and adding a Roku stick in the movie room (a small $30-$50 expense for the owners that would have a huge impact on people using that room, as there are no DVDs or cable box in there). We came in early spring with 50 degree weather, but I imagine it gets beastly in the summer with the big windows (it got toasty even for us with the afternoon sun)--may also suggest trying to add some electric blinds to those upper windows! Management was super responsive and helpful (which they made easy to do via text). However, I'm not sure we'd stay at this specific cabin again unless the above changes occurred. (By the way, I say all of this as someone who also owns a vacation home and rents it out.) Tips for future renters: We cooked/grilled almost every meal here and the kitchen is well-equipped, but we couldn't find measuring cups/spoons, and as the listing states, there are no extra kitchen items included (coffee filters, salt/pepper, oil, etc.). The Food City grocery store is easy to get to and 10 min away, which was great.
