First, the location is absolutely beautiful!! Amazing view! Five stars for that. The road to get there is not all paved so I would worry about taking a small car, especially in the winter or rain. Check-in was easy. Housekeeping forgot to unlock the third room (which was paid for) and one sink in the master didn't work, but a call to property management and we got that sorted out. The cabin definitely could use some TLC - siding falling off, unattached baseboards, dusty. I took it in stride because it's a cabin in the woods, but my parents were less enthusiastic. A deep clean would go a long way and making sure beds have mattress pads, etc. The hot water in the kitchen didn't work, however, the owner was able to get someone out to fix it the day before Thanksgiving so major kudos for that. It appeared there were lights on the outside of the cabin, but we never figured out how to turn them on, which made walking the dogs at night more difficult. Some of the burners on grill were out. There wasn't firewood when we arrived (luckily we brought some). Again, a call to the owner and they brought a huge stack of wood. Having a fire was wonderful! The kitchen is well-equipped with all the basics but there is limited seating in the living room. We didn't use the fishing equipment, kayaks, or projector so I can't comment on them. The hot tub was hot AND CLEAN so we did use that. The kids liked the pool table and ping-pong table. It was a quick easy drive to Blue Ridge.
