This is a hard review to write, because the host is amazing. Very communicative and helpful. I love kind people like that! The issue for me is that the property did not appear as pictured, and there were some issues. The theater room smelled like cat litter, but it couldn’t have actually been cat litter. There were no other signs of cats in or around the house. The kitchen lacked a few essentials, and it wasn’t as clean as we expected. HOWEVER, I will take a kind and generous host with a less than stellar space any day over an immaculate place with an unkind host (I speak from experience.). I just want this review to help set expectations for people. That is all. I DO recommend this place and the host.
I needed information on how to use the mini-splits. I tried to adjust the temperature but it went into another mode.The only other thing was the step down to the kitchen. I would forget it was there and hit the floor hard. It's a great home, everything you need in the kitchen and bathrooms. Beds are comfortable and lots of blankets, if needed. It is close to a lot of hte hiking we wanted to do.
The home was in a great location and was immaculately clean and well stocked. The theater room with bunk beds was amazing, my kids loved it. Do note that the bedrooms are stocked with fans and space heaters but do not have HVAC or mini splits, so when the temperature plunged overnight my 9 month old woke up crying from cold and then when we tried to plug in the space heater, it blew the fuse. There is also an issue with the shower which allows no pressure. Overall for the price, we had a great stay, and a lot of thought was obviously put into this listing.

Katy, I'm sorry for the couple of points that were a poor experience for you all. The mini splits do heat or cool the home, but with drastic changes of temperature like we had from day to night, they can be a little slow. Again, I'm so sorry. We just had the shower remodeled, and found out the new shower head was defective and have it replaced. Thank you for letting us know of these issues and I'm sorry for the inconveninces they caused you.
Property was extremely clean, easy location to find and convenient to both Natural Bridge and the Parkway.

Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
Although Keaton was very friendly and communicative, we were pretty disappointed with the property. The place is very dirty. Dishes in the cabinet had food stuck on them (they make you do the dishes as a part of check out so of course they don’t get cleaned well when people are on their way out), the inside of the fridge is grimy, there is a bunch of dust under the beds and on the vents, and the shower is mildewed. Overall the place is just not well maintained and dirty, but the property doesn’t make up for it in amenities. Probably fine if you just need a place to crash but you can get a hotel for the same price or cheaper. Reading other reviews about cleanliness was confusing because this was absolutely not our experience. The pictures are edited and angled in a way that makes you think the place is nicer and different than it is. Also the captions are AI generated and straight up wrong for most pictures. The hammock chairs outside are really dirty so you can’t even use them. Adirondack chairs were nice though. Inside there isn’t really enough seating for everyone to sit comfortably, just two recliners in the “movie room” and then a love seat in the main room. The AC is two wall split units so some rooms get kinda hot if the door is closed. Overall, we were disappointed and felt uncomfortable during our stay. If we had planned to stay longer than 2 nights, we would have found somewhere else to stay.

William, I'm so sorry this was your experience. I will take your feedback, get with our property management, and do everything we can to resolve the controllable issues here.
We enjoyed our recent stay! The owner was quick to respond to my question and the check-in process was a breeze. My young adult son loved the media room and appreciated the snacks. We would stay here again and have already recommended it to other family visiting the area this Fall.
We stayed overnight on a road trip to break up the driving. Check in was straight forward. The house had everything we needed for the evening. Overall, a nice stay.
My teens and younger kids loved the house. They took full advantage of the movie room (thank you for the snacks)! We all enjoyed the fire pit and relaxing chair swings.
