Nice house with plenty of room and space to play. On a primitive road but was easy to get to with a car. Every morning we would watch the deer play in the valley below. Would stay there again.

This property was very comfortable and nestled in the woods. Very peaceful place to stay. Furniture was comfortable. Everything we needed was available, including cookware. There were even some games and toys for families with younger kids.

The house is in a fantastic location and could be a very nice place to stay, but it’s not being maintained by the corporate owner. Many things wrong in the home, including water damage in the basement which caused drywall damage, high humidity, and mold growth. The inattentiveness of whoever is responsible for maintaining the home is apparently oblivious to details such as the mismatched brands for the coffee maker and carafe…they don’t work together. These same details and more were reported to the corporate home owners, VACASA, but I haven’t heard from them whatsoever since.

Beautiful 3-story mountain home with a great view located 2.5 -3 miles up a mountain on a partially paved narrow road. Additionally, the road has several sharp turns and lots of deep holes. NO ONE at VACASA told me about the road to get to the house despite calling to find out if the location was easily accessible. They did not inform me or is any information posted on the website. The locals drive about 40 mph on this road designed to fit only one car at a time in most sections. Silva is in the smokey mountains and there are many other homes that would suit my needs and had I known the anxiety associated to get to this home, I would have not chosen it. However, not being a local, I was uninformed. And when I contacted VACASA upon check-in, the response was "didn't you see how the location was on the map?" The address doesn't come until after one books so how is anyone to know? Very disappointed with this experience and would not recommend the company. Buyer beware is all I can say.

We had 100% difficulty reaching the "local" Vacasa office to determine if the house was in an affected area by Hurricane Helene and had Wi-Fi restored. I kept getting a Caribbean office, which was very frustrating.
We took our chances and made the trip. We arrived at 4:30 after receiving 2 notices that the unit was ready and clean for a 4:00 check-in. Once we came up a very (typical for this area) primitive road (which in most cases would require a 4WD, we found this beautiful home. However, there was a car there. Upon going to the door we were greeted with 3 small boys playing. Later a man and woman came and said they were cleaning the property, that it was last minute because of an emergency with the regular cleaner.
We had no issues while waiting for them to finish cleaning.
However when they left and we got unloaded I wanted to freshen up. The towels in the main bathroom had make up stains on them and were damp. I decided to wash them myself for my peace of mind. The washing machine was very dirty in the inner plastic ring and the dispenser drawer. I proceeded to wash the towels but it took all night for them to dry. The dryer does not heat up.
We reported this to the local agent (which we had not prior to the trip been able to reach). She said she would send someone out and compensate us.
Chairs in the den are NOT recliners as represented.
We will not use VACASA again. This house was nice and comfortable and a nice place to stay if the washer/dryer are fixed

Every experience I've had with Vasca has been excellent. They don't try to make the home more than it is. If anything, they underrepresented with the photos.
Also, it's just all the little things that are available. They have tons of spices for you to cook with, really good cookware to use. There are plenty of additional pillows and blankets.
The property itself is gorgeous and secluded. We will definitely stay here again!
