After a bad stay at a cabin at Huntington this was a beautiful place and just what we needed! Everything was spotless and wonderful! This is our 3rd stay here and will definitely be back! It is very peaceful and we we love the pond with the ducks, and we feed the blue jays and squirrels peanuts from the deck! Excellent vaca in the mountains. After losing a cabin at Huntington to the Creek Fire in 2020, my heart needs mountain therapy!

Perfect views & a trail.

We will be back. Loved everything about this place. Beautifully remodeled, perfect views, and a trail a few feet away. Restaurants are a few miles away, about an 8 minute drive. Perfect getaway. Thanks ! GPS is off, once you’re there. Turn right on road 20, not before like it says. 😊

Great Little Cabin

Great location next to a pond with a nice sized deck. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you need to cook; even got to BBQ. The whole place was well stocked and the washer and dryer were a treat. My daughters and wife fully enjoyed themselves , and I had a blast.

Great Home - Will not use Vacasa again

My daughter and I spent two weeks at this lovely cabin. The only problem was extremely poor response by Vacasa. Most vacation rentals you can contact the property owner - in this case it was a text, phone call or email to the office in Portland. We had a mouse infestation and I waited until 3:50 the following day to receive a box of sticky traps. Christian did offer to clean up, but I could not leave piles of mouse droppings in the kitchen and cleaned it with supplies that I borrowed and had to replace while I waited all day. The Vacasa office kept telling me that they would deal with it promptly and notify me when someone was on the way, but that never happened. I sent photos of mouse feces more than once. I would rent this cabin again, but not through Vacasa

The house is a charming throwback in terms of appearance but there were dirty dishes in cabinets and drawers and hairs in the bedding.

Waterfront getaway

The waterfront is a pond and the quote close to the lake is not true It’s not close to anything About a 10 minute drive to the lake and the restaurants etc Very hard to find hidden down a road The navigation says you are at your destination but you really aren’t Don’t even try and do it after it gets dark We had to go back in the morning to find it The place is run down and dirty the only part that made it worth it was the pond and the views

Nice stay but a few items need attention

This place is perfect for small families it is located in a cute quiet neighborhood 10 mins from town. It was clean and the kitchen was well stocked for cooking. A few items need attention. The master shower door doesn’t shut so water leaks.. we had to use several towels to soak up water each time we showered. Also the fridge makes a loud noice when trying to make ice which doesn’t work. The fireplace was very warm and cozy.

Layout was good, kitchen a bit tight. House is easy to climate control. Everything was clean and comfortable. It meets the basic needs. Parking is ample for two large trucks.

Disrepair/ Mice

We have stayed at this cabin for years and have unfortunately seen it decline. On this recent trip, we experienced mice running across the living room. We checked out immediately. After this experience and the poor cleaning- we will not be back.

Rustic old cabin on beautiful pond in high Sierras near Shaver Lake. A great place for you and your dog to watch the ducks and frogs, while barbequing, after a day at the lake

Both VBRO and Vacassa need the same policies on items concerning refunds, cancelation, etc. V

Rental is OLD, there are safety issues, patio, walkway, front door, shower door. Children and pets could easily get hurt. Inside is from 1960 and 70s construction and decoration. The furniture a d furnishings are from yard or thrift stores. Carpet is old and filthy. We left a day early, couldn't relax there or sleep.

The cabin was very nice. Had all the conveniences of home and the best part my grandchildren enjoyed they could walk down the balcony stairs and start fishing. Definitely would like to spend another weekend here.

Nice, clean cabin

We had a good experience at the cabin. We were in Shaver Lake for our son's wedding. The cabin was clean and in a quiet location. It was nice to seat on the deck and watch the baby ducks in the pond. Beautiful view seating on the deck. We were disappointed that we couldn't have other family members visit. I understand the limit was 6 but we didn't see why it would be a problem just to have visitors. Things to fix, clean bbq, blinds on deck side were hard to open and dishwasher needs to be secured. When I had the bottom rack out with several plates, the dishwasher was falling out.
