Big, interesting house

Uncomfortable beds. We froze as the heat was set to 68, but never got warmer than 60 inside some rooms. Left the house secured and came back to keypad entry door wide open. Sketchy area.

The Good, Bad and the Ugly

The house itself is a little on the older side, but that was ok. It is large, VERY large! We had no problem with space or beds. The furniture is very outdated. I'm not sure what the cleaning fee was for. We went to the store and bought Clorox and Lysol so we could clean. Very dusty. Multiple light bulbs out. Contacted management about faulty thermostat and was told they would get back with me, never heard a word. Neighbors dogs(BIG dogs) run wild, had been in garbage and it was scattered everywhere. Again, contacted management and said they would take care of it, it was still everywhere when we left 4 days later. Also, the dogs bark and charge when you get out of your car. Management told me I should go talk to them about their dogs, that's a negative Ghost Rider! Biggest issue for me was the lack of cleaning despite paying a cleaning fee. Despite this, I still feel it was a good value.

Great weekend!

Family reunion from three other states to celebrate my dad's life (he is 95). Accomodations were perfect, setting was gorgeous, large enough sitting for meals was great, and nice kitchen. Only one suggestion. It would have been good to have a more detail check out process; things like what to do with trash, used towels and things like that. Something on site to inform guests. Great property that fit our needs.

Has potential

The house is spacious and the property is very pretty but, it needs a lot of help. Every single bed needs to be replaced. There are also rats, living under the stairs. The kitchen only had one working light. We were disappointed. We could’ve had a great vacation if the house was improved, there is potential.

Save your $$ book something else.

I had reached out prior to our check in to see about an early check in. I received no response. Per the website no early check ins are permitted due to the property being clean for our arrival. That was a joke! This place was disgusting! It looked like it had not been cleaned in MONTHS! There were cobwebs and dust on everything from the beds, lampshades to the walls and towels in the bathrooms. There were bugs on the walls, in the beds, and in the showers. We were charged a cleaning fee upon booking this cabin and yet had to spend an additional $165 on cleaning supplies and new bedding. I reached out to Vacasa the day of check in and was told they would get someone on it and reach out to cleaners for the property. I never received a call back and no one ever came to clean. The whole cabin is falling apart, shower handles were broken, window screens torn, floors were buckled. It smelled of mold and musk. There was no upkeep in anyway of this property. Completely out dated and the neighbors had everything but the front sink out on their yard. I am completely disappointed in this property and how vacasa handled everything.

Great for a family gathering

We chose this property to allow our family and friends to stay with us for a nice vacation weekend. The property is large with plenty of space for people to space out and large enough for plenty of seating when together. The driveway and entryway is gravel and was a little difficult to get in and out of with multiple cars but still a great property.

Lots of NEVERS: Never Safe, Never Again, Never Delivered

NEVER SAFE: 1) Between 1-6am, at least 1-3 ppl sat on the bridge bench feet from the front door & left 3 beer cans as proof; 2) sheer or missing curtains over doors incl. full length bathroom one leading to porch (we walked right up & saw grandkid brushing teeth); 3) previously water-stained ceiling in master bedroom sprang a pouring leak onto bed halfway through filling tub upstairs; 4) several dogs freely roamed the back patio area & came right up to family incl. kids. NEVER AGAIN: 5) Grill had to be serviced while there just to be useable; 6) fire pit pictured had been removed so outdoor cooking plans were obliterated; 7) entire length of the property smelled like "a giant poopy dog park" which stunted A LOT of outdoor plans (during a pandemic). NEVER DELIVERED: The property is quite large & has potential if maintained & fenced, but maintenance & cleanliness of outdoor property & home were non-existent (cobwebs everywhere, tall grass, garbage left in cans near parking lot was dragged across the street). Adding that to the 7 major problems above left our group saying never again for this Laurel Lodge.

North Georgia Revival

We went down for the North Georgia Revival in Dawsonville! The location was not to far from Dawsonville. The house was just perfect! We had 16 people and everyone had their own bed! There was plenty of room to spread out. You could even get away and have your own privacy! The house was clean! We all agreed we would definitely stay there again!

Be aware

It is hard to summarize. I sent a lengthy email to Vacasa with a request to refund some of our money. We booked for April and paid all the fees, some of which disnt seem to be right, but paid them. We had to cancel due to Covid national health emergency and the state shut down. We rescheduled for July and the price had dog led and we had to pay all the same fees again. When we arrived, the house had not been cleaned and fixtures were falling down. The ice maker disnt work, the dishwasher disnt work, the coffee pots didn't work and there was a wasp infestation I. The back decks. All this cost us extra money as we had to drive 10 miles into town twice a day for ice, had to buy dish detergent amf had to buy a coffee pot that worked. Too much to mention here. My letter was received, but no response on refunding some of our money.

the house was a nice size for a big party but very dirty

we asked if we could check in early a couple of months ahead of time, they told us they would let us know at 9 the of if we could check in early,we got up there at 2 no one was there so we knew the cleaning crew was done,so we called them they we very rude and said no that we couldn't check in, found out later if we would have paid extra we could have.but we were never told that. Got in the house was very dirty, under beds we found a inch of dust and old water bottles, pens mens pants.the air conditioning was not working properly, they sent some repair me out but the upstairs still was not cool, the bathroom near the kitchen stunk very bad and there gnats coming out of the drain, we have a group of ladies that rent a house once a year to get together and play cards, this was the first time we have had such a dirty house and a rude experience with the rental company Vacasa I will never go thur them.

Needs more maintenance

Poor cleaning maintenance, dirty floors, beer bottles in living room and food fro I don't know how long forgotten in kitchen cabinets. I did write an email to the company I have not heard from them, very strong humidity smell inside the house. We were evacuees from hurricane Dorian almost everything was booked and this property looked like a good option but it was very disappointing after a long drive to get there and find things like this when the place is supposed to be ready and cleaned so people can enjoy their stay. The good part is the front yard with the stream I think that was the best part of the property.

This is a great place for hosting a family reunion because there was plenty of space available. We had a party of 15 but because of the size of the house you couldn’t tell it. The front yard scenery would be perfect for an outdoor wedding also.

Big House!

It is off the beaten path, shares a driveway the neighboring property. plenty of room for a lot of people. Kitchen had a good amount of pots and pans--although we had a small group, prolly not enough for a big group. The wifi is sloooooow. We got 1M download with our speed tests--making it difficult to stream movies. The main TV is small and no DVD player forces streaming which is tough. But it worked out and we enjoyed our stay.

What a wonderful house! Brought my church youth group for a quiet retreat weekend and the house more than met our needs. House was very well stocked and reasonably clean. The reason for the 4 stars is the parking. Neighbors parked at bottom side of fence which forced us to back all the way out...but still plenty of parking. Loved our stay and we will be returning.

Beautiful home with restful spaces

Our church rented this home out for a women’s retreat over a weekend in January, and we could not have asked for a better space to stay. The home was nestled in the woods next to a beautiful stream in a quiet and peaceful location. There were so many restful spaces to read, relax, and get time together as a group. The bedrooms were comfortable, and the beautiful bunk bed rooms were so helpful to provide private-feeling sleeping spaces for our group.
