Nice place to stay but the roads were really bad

We really enjoyed our stay. Great place for a long weekend. But, when I ask about the roads being washed out it was played off as a joke and if we hadn’t have driven a truck we would’ve been able to go down the road to the house! Very large area where the creek washes through! Take the back way in even if it hasn’t rained it’s still there!

GREAT VACATION

We had a wonderful visit over Memorial Day weekend. The house was very comfortable, especially the bedding which is not always the case when renting. The owner was very accommodating and allowed us to check in early. The only negative was that the hill leading to the dock was very steep. Because I have knee issues I was not able to go down there but all the others in our group were able to.

Hi Jennifer, we're sorry to hear you encountered some issues on your drive to this vacation rental. From our understanding, your GPS directed you to use an uncommon route to the cabin. The owner let us know that there is a well-maintained, serviceable road that takes guests to the property. We wish you would have reached out to the owner as they would have been more than happy to direct you to the right road. We're confident this cabin will continue to host many happy travelers!

Hartwell Cabin

The cabin was clean but there were cob webs inside and covering th outside of the cabin. The walk to the lake is very steep and even if you are in shape you will get winded climbing the hill back up to the cabin. The driveway is pretty hard to maneuver. It is gravel and not smooth. Difficult for light weight vehicles. The stars are spectacular!

Beautiful cabin

The cabin was so beautiful,very clean. Lots of deck space, lovely fireplace heaters. Our favorite was the 4 seasons room where you can sit and have your cup of coffee and relax.Since it was november, having the cozy heater was great. The beds were very comfortable. Lots of games to play. We walked down to the lake but that would be more enjoyable in the summer. Kitchen fully stocked and yes there are plenty of coffee cups. Didnt have any trouble getting to the cabin. There arent many restaurants nearby, we did go to Tilly tiki bar and that was delicious, beautiful views. So head to a grocery store first if you plan on cooking in the cabin. Chris was very quick to answer texts, allowed an early check in and was available to answer questions. Highly recommend this cabin, was one. Of my favorites.

Cozy cabin

The pictures of the cabin on VRBO are true to the current condition and décor. It was cozy and comfortable. I loved the screened porch. And a nice surprise were the comfortable beds! The area was quiet and the dock was nice. I did not give it the 5 stars that others thought it deserved because the kitchen needed a good cleaning. I called Chris on Saturday, immediately upon arriving, to tell him that the kitchen had not been properly cleaned. He never called me back. There was dried food on the cabinet fronts, knobs were sticky, oven had food running down the front glass, and the counters were covered with crumbs. Overall, it was gross. We planned to cook every meal and I had to clean the kitchen before I could prepare food for my family. Then I noticed the pots and pans had Teflon coating that was badly scratched and peeling. We had to drive to Walmart, not close at all, and buy pots to use for our vacation. The outdoor furniture is in need of repair. The green plastic chairs left green residue on our clothes. There was a hammock in the photos but it was not hooked up. FYI, the downstairs bedroom is not a master suite. The bathroom is in the hall, and the fireplace is a double-sided fireplace with the living room. The noise from the living room comes through the fireplace and it is not very private. The driveway had very deep potholes and was difficult to get up. If these few things don't bother you, I would recommend the cabin.

Melissa, we're glad you enjoyed your stay overall! We're sorry there were a few aspects of your stay that were less than satisfactory. We can assure you these were isolated incidents. The homeowners have replaced the pots and pans, as well as the patio furniture. The driveway is made of gravel and can take a beating sometimes but it is still usable and in overall good shape. However, the owners are planning to re-grade it in the near future. As evidenced by past reviews, we're confident this cabin will continue to host many satisfied guests! Best, the Evolve Team
