Relax Away From It All
Posted Dec. 8, 2024 on HomeAwayThe house was ok. A few things to note. If you need wifi to work, the signal isn't strong. We didn't get calls/texts. You can get some emails & such, but it blinks regularly & doesn't reach parts of the house. The Roku TV w/ apps is nice, but you will need to sign in to your accounts for them & the wifi is spotty. The house allows pets but it's 14 steps up/down each time you go out. We visited in November. The heating unit works well on the main level, but the basement is cold & the loft is hot, so be ready for that. The main BRs are well appointed but small, with ample linens. We did find a few spots that weren't cleaned well (used water bottles in beds, missed trash, cobwebs, etc.) but overall it was ok. The kitchen is fairly well stocked but small. We made a full Thanksgiving meal, but only one person can work comfortably. There isn't trash pick-up. You haul it to the local trash center. It's on the way to Murphy & open daily, so that helps. The listing states the house is outside Murphy. I didn’t realize it was a 30 minute drive. Plan your trips, as it isn't an easy in & out. The listing says the driveway is steep & it's true. We were able to park at the top. I'm not sure I would have survived the hike from below lol. A good house, but I wouldn't take pets & location is why I may not visit again. Owner is friendly & responded quickly to questions. Nice house but ask questions to be sure it works for you before going.

I sincerely apologize that your stay wasn't as you planned it to be. I apologize for any inconveniences that you encountered. I will however look into the situation of overlooked trash. As for the heat and/or a/c, we have no control over that, as heat rises and basements are always cooler or colder depending on the weather.
Wi-Fi....that's another story. We have found in the last year that the Wi-Fi signal isn't as strong as it used to be. They are in the process of installing fiber optic cable that should be completed early spring. There isn't trash pick-up in Cherokee County. All residents have to take their trash to a transfer station. The driveway is very steep, but that is disclosed in the description of the property on VRBO.
Again, I am sorry! I try my best to make sure that all of our guests have an enjoyable stay.

My Getaway
Posted Jun. 13, 2024 on HomeAwayWe loved the cabin and the layout of it. The inside was clean and well stocked with necessities except toilet paper. The decks & deck furniture were unfortunately in need of cleaning but my teens and I had a blast

Lake Hiwassee
Posted May 27, 2024 on HomeAwayFamily and friends came up to stay for Memorial Day weekend. We had a group of 8 combined of adults, older and younger teens. Checked in late on Friday night and went to bed. Next day we discovered some issues that were quickly addressed and remedied by the owners. The house is comfortable and enjoyable. We greatly enjoyed our time out on the lake and it is a beautiful area. We would stay again!

Vacation
Posted Jul. 20, 2023 on HomeAwayThe house was clean and had everything we needed. The owner was was great to work with. The pool was nice and right across from the house. Everyone in the community was very nice. The only downside was there was no where to swim in the lake in the community unless you rented a boat.

Good, but needs some upkeep
Posted Jul. 18, 2023 on HomeAwayThis cabin is located in the relatively remote Bear Paw community. We liked the ambience of it and the cute bear decor. It is right next door to the very nice community sports center / pool. Our boys really loved fishing in the well stocked pond nearby. The wifi worked OK, but be advised that cell service (Verizon) is zero in this area, so get your GPS directions before leaving the cabin.
This property has some deferred maintenance that was apparent when we arrived. Some of the lights were missing bulbs, and one of the patio doors was frosted over. We also found evidence of some mice in the kitchen. There was a few drops of water coming through the basement bathroom ceiling presumably from the 1st floor bathroom drain.

I apologize for any inconvenience. Our family was there after your stay and we found no issues as you described except for the sliding glass door. We are aware that the one glass has frosted over but have been unable to replace. That is something we plan to do in the future. Although, it doesn't hamper the view that you have because the 3 other panes are perfectly clear. I did replace several light bulbs while we were there, and I always try to have replacement bulbs in case one does burn out. As for the evidence of mice.... we never saw anything but will definitely have it checked out.
Again, I am sorry that you found our home only 3 stars worthy.
