The setting is beautiful with incredible views and wildlife—we saw deer, elk, turkey, and foxes during our stay. The owner was kind, easy to work with, and accommodating with a later checkout, which we appreciated.Unfortunately, the property did not meet expectations for a luxury home at 1,500/night (especially given the 600 cleaning fee).We booked largely for the outdoor entertaining space but ended up taking family to dinner in town because the outdoor area was simply not presentable. The firepit had trash and partially burned logs inside, with huge logs scattered around that we had to move ourselves. The grill was filthy, the outdoor fridge was left open with standing water and debris inside, the pond was murky and partially drained, and weeds were overgrown throughout the patio area. None of the adults felt comfortable using the hot tub due to the water’s appearance and lack of obvious maintenance.Inside, the kitchen was worse: greasy surfaces, mouse droppings in drawers and cabinets, dirty dishes with food residue, a dead bug in a bowl, and a filthy microwave that had clearly not been cleaned. We genuinely felt we left the home cleaner than we found it.This property has tremendous potential and generally matches the listing photos, but it is not maintained to the standard its price and “luxury” listing suggest. With proper cleaning and upkeep, it could be exceptional.
