The Great Hawk House

Great location--Very nice house--Great views-- Only issue was I had to call Vacasa because I was only given code for top floor lockbox---They put me in touch with someone who gave me a correct code for the bottom floor. The house was perfect for our family. Will definitely stay there again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy

Very disappointed!

This place was listed as a NEW cabin. We found a dried up french fry on the night stand, rugs had visible debris, a bottle cap was left on a table, etc. I thought I was renting through VRBO but ended up dealing with a company called VACASA. We arrived at check-in only to find issues with codes they gave us. There were instructions for HOA/Gated entrance - there was no such thing. The 2nd unit needed a code - we did not have it. The property manager showed up minutes after we did and helped us get into the property. She said she lived 1 1/2 hours away so we knew we could not count on her for help. She had to call in a maintenance man for help. He was the most helpful of all! He brought us detergent when we ran out. The quantities they had provided were not sufficient for our 5 night stay. The bbq grills did not work. Screens had holes. French door was hard to open/close and would inadvertently lock leaving people on the deck to get in by way of the lock box. We had left change on a night stand and it was missing when we went to get it. Kitchen items were not all clean when we went to use them. We had to wash them before we could use them. No instructions for use of TV/cable/streaming which was very difficult to figure out. With the help of the maintenance man, we were able to use the system. There were no instructions for linens when we checked out. In my reviews I had used the Premier Host filter, so I assumed this was a Premier Host property.

Location saved it

Awkward check in (no keys to downstairs) and a big empty space where tv in main room supposed to be. Beautiful location and house we but all had complaints about our mattresses. Maybe an upgrade in that area will match rest of house. Can’t beat the views though!!!!

Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2021
