Shaver cabin

Loved the cabin it was in a perfect location just 5 mins from the town. The cabin is huge with a bathroom in every bedroom which is very nice. The dryer does not work and the propane was out but they did bring us some propane right away but it will be perfect if the dryer worked. It also needs a can opener I didn’t bring one thinking it would have all of that but over all loved the place. Also the fireplace was nice and the views were amazing I will definitely be back.

Original linens, cookware, and furniture is not a selling point!

I wish I could give this cabin a good review but it started from access to the property with given code and the response time for help with this issue is always ridiculous. The cabin itself was perfect for our family of teenagers. They basically took over the upstairs which left two bedrooms with bathrooms downstairs. Obviously I know the linens are provided by the mgmt but comforters and blankets are probably the original linen’s the owners used along with ALL furniture including mattresses. The furniture is completely falling apart and not comfortable. Decided to do a load of laundry (towels) and washer starts making crazy sounds on the rinse cycle. I put the towels in the dryer and pretty sure the dryer does not work. Bathrooms, downstairs bathroom had a ball of long black hair on top of the drain. Bathroom upstairs upon arrival had issues. Probably why there’s a plunger beside the toilet. On New Years Eve morning I realized the hot water heater had stopped working. I began sending txt msgs at 7:30. I received a call from handyman at 10:30ish to come look at it. At this point with every else happening I’m like im cutting my losses here because idk when the WH will be fixed and I have 4 teenage girls. I asked the guy to have his manager contact me when they got a minute. Today is 1/13/25 and I have yet to hear from anyone @Vacasa. The cabin is just in dying need of some maintenance, upgrades of linens, pots and pans, and furniture. I would not stay here again.

Nice, comfortable place

Great place for families or groups of friends. Pros: * The three bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms * Big kitchen table * Nice layout where everyone can be together downstairs or go upstairs for some separation. Cons: * Couch was a bit old and not super comfortable, but not bad overall. * Internet was kind of slow and sometimes seemed stop altogether. Was a little bit of an issue when trying to do some video calls.

Enjoyed

We have been going to Shaver Lake for the past 10yrs. we have yet to stay in the same cabin twice. When we left, we all agreed this will be the first cabin that we will be back to. Even though the kitchen floor was dirty, it can be over seen. the beautiful big windows and the fresh outdoor deck, playing pool in the evenings, relaxing, enjoyable and fun. We will be back to this one.

Excessive Deferred Maintenance Needed

Hoping future guests will not experience all the issues with this property that we had. The list is too long to post here. The property was great for our group and the location is excellent. We have been coming to Shaver lake since the late 70s. The Vacasa staff only addressed one of the many many issues during our six days. I believe I had to call them at least six times. They stated they are just gearing up for the season and are hiring. Hoping any future guest will have better luck.

Unkept property

Couldn’t check in at 4. Next day had tree trimmers, people on the roof, guys yelling, weed wackers, and leaf blowers for 1 1/2-2 hours, and my husband wasn’t feeling well. Third day the owners showed up and said they didn’t know we were here. They did their “monthly review” of their home, checked filters, etc and left after an hour. The home is very musty with old smelling due to old furniture and unclean carpet, jelly and syrup on the front of the kitchen counter fronts, microwave has food stuck on the glass wheel inside, where my paper towel stuck, there is a huge spider and web in the kitchen window corner where it would open the bottom pane. The house was NOT ready for visitors after the winter. Garage had leaves and debris inside, no furniture on the deck, however the owners took care of that one two items. The reviews and listing mentioned no air conditioning, so we brought our fan. The fans at the house have dust caked on, so you would get a dose of allergy dust if turned on. The home could be very nice, just no upkeep by the housekeeping or the owners. We will not rent again.

Disappointing

What was supposed to be a relaxing weekend to unwind and relax was stressful and uncomfortable. The house has a nice layout and the view out the back windows were wonderful. However, upon arrival it was discovered the kitchen was not clean and dirty dishes and silverware had been put away unwashed. Wet laundry was also found in the washing machine. The house was dusty in common areas that should have been wiped down. We immediately contacted the property manager hoping the home could be cleaned as we still had 4 nights in the property. What ended up being a 4 hour stint to try and complain to the manager and VRBO only resulted in a complaint being filed by each; the only response we eventually received was an email the last night indicating a small credit was being given. As there were not a lot of other options in the area we stayed, but had to run multiple loads of dishes in the dishwasher and do laundry to feel semi-comfortable with the cleanliness. The furnishings are getting old and need replacing, and the beds are not very comfortable as stated in other reviews, but those were minor issues after the state of the kitchen. It was a very disappointing trip, after weeks of planning. The property could be lovely, but it does need a deep cleaning and the furnishings and beds need some updating.

Great Home - Majestic Views - Been Here Before and will Be Back Again

The giant windows in the living room are dramatic and luxurious. Beds were comfortable. Carpets and living room furniture are starting to show their age but not bad. Kitchen is adequate but some of the pots and pans are also well used. Shower drains were just a little slow in two of the three. Overall a fantastic place.

Peaceful Forest View

The home was wonderful, comfortable and spacious. Each of the 3 bedrooms has it's own en-suite bathroom. We enjoyed the view looking into the forest and watching the stars at night on the deck. We walked Quail Ridge Trail nearby and took our Subaru up to Dinkey Lakes Trailhead and walked up to Mystery Lake. Beautiful!

Great location

Close to town and the lake, beds were all hard which was hard to get comfortable at night. Does not have AC causing the windows to sweat and making the house very warm. Other than that great trip and memories.

Beautiful great location

The cabin was beautiful, clean, and a great location. Unfortunately, we booked two nights and only stayed for one because of the beds and sleeping areas. The three full size beds are so uncomfortable we could not sleep. You can feel the springs in the beds. Please add mattress pads on top! The upstairs game room was fun until it was time to sleep there. No curtains and very bright from neighbors lights and moon shining in large windows. Please add window covers! The rest of the house was very nice, but sleeping wasn't good.

We absolutely loooooved this home. Super cute and comfortable. My only complain is that I would like yo have known in advance that the water system had high levels of asbestos. Also the top floor would benefit from having ceiling fans in the room and pool table room. Other than that it was a beautiful home.
