Nice Cozy House

Super clean and comfy beds. Bath towels were super soft and they have to BEST smelling body wash. Top-notch kitchen appliances! Quiet and peaceful. We got a kick out of watching the squirrels playing from the living room window.

Comfortable and quiet.

Went up to sew with a friend for 3 nights. Plenty of comfortable space. WiFi was great. Close enough to town for meals, but had a well appointed kitchen for cooking and a nice deck outside to enjoy the fresh air and trees. Weather was a little warm, but house stayed cool until late afternoon. Fans were provided, which was thoughtful. Will Definitely go back again!

Adequate

Nothing special but did the job. Appears to be a full time rental. Good location, clean and has everything you need to be happy. It wasn’t our first choice but we left our vacation very pleased with the cabin.

Our Stay

Property was well equipped - kitchen & bathrooms. However TV did not work during our 3day stay. Contacted to resolve daily but only received apologies. Also had a bat attack in the evening that disappeared into a hole at the top of the kitchen cabinet.

Don't use vacasa

My mother is disabled. They did not help with anything! They would not even try to have early check in (so it was getting dark and cold when we arrived) or later check out (even though no one was even set to come after us). I go to vacation rentals a lot and this is the worst. So disappointed. House was fine but an extremely stressful experience checking in and out.

Gas went OUT!!! FREEZING

Due to apparent poor preparation on the management's behalf, the cabin's propane tank wasn't filled. When we arrived, it was 25 degrees outside. A couple hours after we went to bed, it was clear the heat wasn't working. Luckily, I brought my own firewood or things could have gotten desperate. By morning time, we were popsicles. A maintenance man was on the scene quickly the following morning but only after a horrible frostbitten night. Otherwise, we loved the cabin.

Overall house in good condition. Issues were the nest climate control it didn’t work at night.

Nest thermostat didn’t work and no instructions on how to use which is unheard of in a rental. No heat when it did work it only lasted a few minutes then only the fan would work, then you would have to reset thermostat to heat mode. No heat the front bedroom this is unacceptable in 30 degree weather. Wifi didn’t work so I Had to find the router and use default pin located on the bottom of the unit . Pots and pans are old and the Teflon is peeling off need to be replaced . No landline at this property safely issue due to no cell service.

Cute cabin

We loved our stay, our children had lots of fun. The cabin was clean when we arrived with all the necessities required. We just recommend having someone do maintenance on the AC/Heat. The air flow is not working properly. The living room was warm but bedrooms were cold. Also the toilet seat in the master bath needs to be changed, it has some rips on the cushion. Overall we would stay again.

Lovely stay in the mountain

Our stay at Casa Tahquitz was a great experience as first timers. The place was peaceful and refreshing. It was worth driving up the mountain and the neighboring area. The house was clean and cosy; just a bit smaller than on picture. Barbecue on the porch with the kids was awesome. We all loved it and will certainly do it again.

False claims of A/C on

Having known there was no air conditioning, we wouldn’t have booked. The overview description on VRBO indicates there is air conditioning, THERE IS NOT! Weekend was 90+ temps so would have been nice. Also, no hair dryer as listed. Other than that mixup, we enjoyed our time.

Great Comfy Place

Our stay was great but it did have some flaws. I will start with the bad first and end with the good. Drive way is not great for an accessible vehicle or any low vehicle as the bump to get in does scratch the bottom. When we first got there, the cabin was really warm and we turned on the fan but it didn't cool it at all. We later found out that the filter for the fan was clogged and dirty and no air flow was going through. Once we removed it, the fan worked great. The good is that the cabin is beautiful and clean. Close to the town, quiet, relaxing, deck was awesome with great shade, doorways were big enough to fit the wheelchair. Bedrooms were amazing and beds were comfortable except for the 1st night when it was hot. Otherwise, I highly recommend it. Great time, great location and great place.
