Short and simple

The communication until we checked out was good, place was set in an amazing spot. Cleanliness we can get better at. Poop under playroom couch, some areas falling apart like seal in doors. Lights around fire pit did not work all boards games just thrown in cabinets, bring own paper goods. I did email before doing this survey no response. The amount of money paid I expected all of this at 100%

Great Family Cabin

We rented Paradise on the River for a large family getaway. The house was as pictured and we had a great time. It was easy to find and in a great location. There is a Dollar General and Country Store/Gas station just 3 miles away to get supplies. The Country store also has a restaurant where you can get pizza, burgers, wings, breakfast and a variety of other foods. They also had homemade cakes & pies. Everything we ordered was delicious. Having the stores so close was very convenient, especially if you don't want to cook. The cons were the check-in & out times. I feel like you lose a whole day of your stay because you can't check in until 4pm and checkout by 10am. They don't leave a 24 hour window between bookings like some other mgmt companies so the detail cleaning was lacking. They hit the main spots, bathrooms, kitchens,etc. but the outside porches were filthy, there were cobwebs in the corners and on ceiling fans. They don't leave enough time to detail clean in between visits. It was very obvious there had been dogs in there. My bed was covered in hair, human and dog. I e-mailed the PM with pictures and several people contacted me immediately, including one of the owners. They sent someone over right away to change the bed. I was very impressed with their response. They had basic bedding but there were no extra blankets or anything around so you will need to bring your own. I found one in the closet but it was covered in dog hair. Overall we were very happy.
