This cabin in Greer sits on a hill overlooking the mountains with a creek running through the base of the hill. With the snow, it was an absolute Winter Wonderland. The kids immediately got on their snow gear to explore and sled from the property which was fantastic. The cabin has an awesome patio with places to sit and listen to the water flowing. The cabin had pretty much everything you needed from dishwashing soap to bathroom toiletries, games, and even pamphlets for things to do around Arizona. Here are the things we believe could be improved:
1. We didn't get the address to the cabin until 4 and half hours before check-in This was a little nerve-racking because we were driving 4 hours from Phoenix to get there and just wanted to make sure we had a place before making the drive. Every other place I’ve stayed at gave us the address 24 hours in advance. This makes the planning much easier.
2. There was no TV remote for one of the bedrooms. We looked all over the property to no avail. Luckily, my 14-year-old son who is a tech whiz was able to program a remote in my phone and connect to the TV so I could watch TV in my room which I like to do at night. If he hadn't been able to do that, it would have for sure affected my stay because that is one of the things, I like to do at night to help me go to sleep.
3. The property was clean enough, but not the cleanest. There were cobwebs on the fan, trash / dirty on the carpet found after we moved the coffee table to pull out the cough and the pull-out couch had sand and cheerios found in it, dried food on a cup, and the pillows smelled a little funky. When you find little stuff like that, you start to create ideas in your head about what else hasn't been cleaned which isn't a great feeling.
4. There are way too many throw pillows. We counted 6 pillows on each bed and several on the couch. Throw pillows are great for your own home for decor, but for a VRBO it's not the best because those pillows immediately get tossed on the floor, and then who knows if they're getting cleaned or not. I don't think taking away the throw pillows would affect the aesthetics of the home as it was thoroughly decorated everywhere else. If this was my place, I would toss those immediately.
None of these things would stop us from staying here again. We are looking forward to our next stay!
