Avis Mule Deer Cabin-Luxury in Gov't Camp- Reunions & Retreats! Walk to Downtown

We had 10 people and we were very comfortable. The cabin is beautiful and in a great location to walk in town and a quick drive to the hikes that we did. We enjoyed time on the porch too.

Very nice home in a very good location.

There was an issue with the stove/oven and it wasn't working, the property company was able to assist.

This property was immaculate, and such a delight. The whole family was able to stay and have tons of fun playing in the snow, watching shows on the tv, and lounging in the giant living room. We are actively considering a second trip to the cabin!

I spent my 30th birthday here with a group of friends for a ski trip. There was plenty of room for everyone, and it’s close to anything you need. My favorite part was the big open living room that was spacious enough for everyone to spend time together. If you’re a sensitive sleeper, bring ear plugs because you can pretty much hear everything going on in the main room from the bedrooms. But that didn’t keep us from having a great time.

The great room and huge dinning table was perfect for gathering and bonding for a large group. Plenty of cozy spaces to relax indoors and out.

We rented this house for a get together. It is in a great location- a couple blocks from the middle of Government Camp. For whatever reason, the VRBO map shows it miles from town in the middle of the forest. They charge multiple miscellaneous fees that weren’t explained until after the booking process They charge $30 each for a booking fee, accidental damage, and trash removal. The trash removal fee seemed particularly excessive given that we were staying two nights. After booking, you are instructed to download an app. The app theoretically has check in instructions but the link never worked. I ended up calling to get the door code. We arrived at 4pm and found the cleaners still working. They were very nice and apologized repeatedly. It’s a large house and the two people cleaning it were clearly doing the best they could to get it done in time. The overall cleanliness is as fair. It seems like it needs a deep clean- things like dead flies on the window sills and fireplace mantle, old cans of stain on the deck, fireplace ashes dumped off the side of the deck all need to be addressed. As another reviewer mentioned, the photos show a much newer, cleaner house. There are multiple maintenance issues inside including: the towel rack missing from the walk( brackets still mounted) and 3 of 4 burned out light bulbs in one of the master bedrooms, loose deck railings, one smoke detector missing it’s battery, numerous stains in the carpet, a toilet missing part of its flush button. The listing shows photos of nice deck furniture. It was absent from the property. We were told it was in a warehouse in Portland. The management said they’d try to get us something but no deck furniture ever arrived. Overall, a disappointment stay particularly given the high price charged for this property.

This place was perfect for our group of 11. It says 16 but that would be very tight. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is that the check in process is inconvenient. You have to drive to a location that is about 10 minutes away to pick up a numeric code that could be emailed.

The house was so great! It is much larger than expected. Perfect for an offsite and had enough space on the dining room table for a meeting. A few suggestions would be to add screens on the front doors and a TV or access to the projector in the living room.

We had a wonderful time at this cabin and plan to visit again.
