Family weekend

The house is very spacious and we had plenty of room! There was issues with the e lock couldn’t get in and we had to have my grandson climb through the window and open door. Also, water went out on us twice throughout the weekend. Made it difficult for 10 people to take showers. Overall, it was an okay weekend.

Great location, and big house!

Pros - the house was big, plenty of room for a big family, or two. The location was wonderful and the deck was a great place to relax. Cons - the carpet was stained, especially the second floor, and there were big cobwebs throughout. We would definitely stay there again. Just hopefully next time the carpets and cobwebs will be remedied.

Excellent and beautiful property!

The property has the most gorgeous windows that allow you to take all the beauty a snowy beautiful morning has to offer! They had many unexpected amenities like a very well put together game room. The beds are ok, fluffier pillows would have made it better. We had a wonderful time in this very warm and cozy cabin.

Good location, about 10 minutes to Shaver Lake. The pool table was a plus. Signal was not that great, better internet service upstairs. A lot of room to hang out and enjoy each others company. The only downfall is it states no shoes inside which the floor was hard to walk on. It would be nicer if it said no shoes on the carpet instead.

If you want a nice vacation, DO NOT STAY AT ALDERHILL!

Sadly, there were a ton of issues. We arrived at 4:20 and the house wasn't ready until 4:45. It was supposed to be ready at 4. The dishwasher was broken- the soap dispenser never opened, so soap did not dispense and the dishes were still dirty. The upstairs shower head was completely off and water was shooting everywhere which made that shower unusable. So disappointing. I talked to maintenance guy Christian who was helpful; however, he couldn't make and purchase because his manager was not there until thursday and this was on Tuesday. - very bad business model. The e- lock was broken and this was EXTREMELY Frustrating to get in an out of the house. We had to take off a screen so one of us could essentially break-in and open the door. The carpets are stained so badly- it was disgusting. Furniture is all tattered and torn and very old. THE WORSE PART was the beds DID NOT HAVE A MATTRESS PAD OR FITTED SHEET. THERE WAS A FLAT SHEET LAYING OVER THE MATTRESS. IT WAS DISGUSTING AND SO UNCOMFORTABLE. WHO DOES THAT? WHO DOESN'T PROVIDE A FITTED SHEET AND MATTRESS PAD. The fitted sheet would move in the night as we slept so we slept on a dirty old mattress. WE SLEPT TERRIBLY. I ASKED FOR THE FITTED SHEET AND MATTRESS PAD AND NO BODY could HELP. THE PANS WERE LITERALLY FROM THE 70S, SO POOR QUALITY. The only positive was the house is big. - Jenny L 7/25

Big & Comfy

We stayed over 4th of July. The no air conditioining was a small issue on check-in day, but the house stayed cool after that. The kids loved the game room and laughed for hours playing pool and foosball. I read thwre were no balls fornthe foosball game, sp I bought a 12 pack and ledt it for future renters. Rooms are spacious and kitchen was big. The fridge is small, so we supplemented with coolers. Bring bug repellant for sitting outside, but emjoy the deck. The bbq worked ok, but could use an upgrade. This was our 2nd time at the house, so clearly we like it.

Nice home

Great home. Very spacious with lots of amenities. The game room was very useful. The kids and adults loved it. The pool table came in handy and spent most of our night enjoying it. The kitchen was well equipped. The bedrooms were comfortable. Only thing I would say is, it was a bit dusty. The main master room lights were not working. We had to use the night lamps. Overall it was a spacious home. We enjoyed it and would book again!

Great location and fun playroom

Pro: Cool aspect is that it had plenty of space for two families, fresh maintain air and lots of room to park cars and easy kitchen to cook in and entertain. Cons: construction next door was noisy very early in the morning Aug 2024. Very very dusty in every room so my allergies were nuts. Carpet and furniture in main room extremely stained dirty/worn down and gross. Our feet were turning black just from walking in the house and the sign says no shoes allowed.

Wonderful stay!

The cabin was very spacious, game room was very entertaining. The cabin exceeded more than what they show in the pictures on Vacasa. The only thing I will say is the AC wasn’t really working, we just opened up the windows to stay cool. They do provide fans, which is nice. Also the refrigerator wasn’t cold at all. We had to put our food in an ice chest but over all. I’d definitely come back! But probably not a hot weekend

A little updating would work wonders

The Vacasa staff were very responsive and helpful with our internet issues. Otherwise, this house looks like nothing (other than the towels) has been updated for at least 15 years. Air vents, door locks, blinds, and the dishwasher were all broken or barely working. Most towel hooks were loose and they didn’t even bother to hide massive stains on the carpet, stove, or furniture. Layers of dust covered fans and light fixtures. A little TLC with a fresh layer of paint and some new carpet would work wonders for this spacious home.

Great property, location and amenities…service could be improved.

The home, location and amenities were great! We were very pleased and would consider staying again in the future. The customer support was lacking. Upon checking in, we coasted a number of light that either had burnt bulbs or were constantly flickering. I immediately shared that via text to Vacasa and was told that a local team member would be in touch…never heard from anyone. I also asked about a sign in the kitchen regarding a stereo receiver it said was inside the hutch but nothing there, so we would not use the numerous speakers mounted about. Lastly, the pool table had an incomplete set of balls and the foosball table had no balls. Part of the reason we booked the house was because of the game room, sadly we were unable to fully enjoy it.

Save your time and money stay elsewhere

We checked in and right away noticed it was more run down then the pictures showed which was fine. But the worst part was the stove i think it was just old or faulty but it made the whole house smell like propane the first time we tried cooking with it. So much so that we were advised to call the fire department which we did and they recommended we only use two of the burners if we had to cook because the others weren’t ok to use orto just eat out. We let the owners know and rental company and I was told something would be done but we never heard back. We had to cook our meals outside or in the microwave which we had not planned for. Also several light bulbs were out in every room or bathroom also nothing was done showering with out light. My family and I had to wash most of the dishes before use because they all had a dark ash on them from how bad the stove was. Overall I would not stay here and for the price not worth it. We made the most of our trip regardless but just sucks we paid what we did and to be left to figure things out ourselves when we were told they would fix those things or move us to a different location and they never did!
