Nice family weekend

Our family enjoyed our stay here! It’s close to town, great outdoor space and wonderful for the fur babies as well. The communication with Vacasa was excellent! We would stay here again😊

So much potential, but lots of areas for improvement

The cabin has so much potential. It has great space, 2 king beds, and large bathrooms. The location is ideal during the winter or summer. The cabin had many issues, though. The stove only had 2 working burners (and one of them was tweaked and hard to get a pot to sit on). That made cooking much more difficult. The TV and WiFi were a huge issue for us. The TV has a DVD player, but no DVDs. We tried using a firestick to stream, but the wifi was so slow and kept dropping for our entire stay. We contacted Vacasa, who said the local office would be in contact. We could never get ahold of anyone. We were unable to watch anything during our stay. The heating in the cabin wasn't ideal. It pumps tons of heat into the lower rooms, but the loft is very cold. Some of that is to be expected in a cabin, but it was pretty extreme. The living room furniture has seen better days. The blinds were missing many slats. Lastly, the cleaning was pretty terrible. Our feet were black from walking around. We found an acrylic nail in the middle of the kitchen floor and food pieces on the stove 🤮. This place has so much potential, but it definitely needs some work.

Great location, house met our needs but just.

Beautiful neighborhood. Nice to just take a walk and admire the properties. Nice and quiet. The house had plenty of space, but could use some sprucing up and gets a hot in the summer afternoons. You'll need to bring everything. We bought coffee filters, (brought coffee and sugar) saran wrap and aluminum foil and left it for the next guest. The BBQ was pretty nice.

Redwood Haven House- Very Rundown and Old

This cabin is very old and run down. The living room furniture is worn and dirty, I would not want to sit on it, TV did not work for half the stay and after several calls was finally replaced but since there is no cable there were no stations to watch. Bobby the property manager was helpful and very responsive and did what he could but the week he was on vacation nothing was addressed. This house needs major repairs and improvements.

DO NOT RENT FROM VACASA

Arrived to the house on Thursday evening. 42 degrees inside, propane tank was empty so no heat or hot water all weekend. Had to buy a lot of firewood to make it bareable. Vacasa told us we would get an emergency fill so we could have heat and hot water…… now Sunday morning checking out, still no heat or hot water. Terrible company, wont ever rent from them again

Nice but needs some attention.

Nice, quiet neighborhood. We weren’t expecting luxury so no disappointment at finding a house that needs some TLC. It was mostly clean. The floors and kitchen counters could have used some extra attention from cleaners. Toenail clippings on the floor of one bedroom were a definite sign. Sticky kitchen counter. Microwave didn’t work. Remote for DVD player didn’t work. Electric stove top with burners that don’t work. Didn’t try the oven. Gas grill on the deck worked. Window blinds in dining area missing blades but would open. The house had been closed up and was very cold. No blankets except for light comforter on my bed. Fortunately I brought a blanket and the heater works. I didn’t go upstairs but the downstairs bathroom is large, very nice and clean. Plenty of fluffy towels. Comfortable beds. Large deck around the house. I’m not sure I would rent through VACASA again. Not being able to talk to someone about early check in was frustrating. We only wanted to come an hour earlier than 4:00 but couldn’t make that simple request to whoever oversees that property. A message was supposedly sent to someone about early check in 5 days before reservation date. According to the calendar for that property it wasn’t rented the week before my reservation. I received a text sometime after noon the day of check in that we could come early but that didn’t really help with advanced planning and logistics of travel. Check out was easy.

House is comfortable and spacious

The house is dated and microwave was not working properly. My suggestion would be update major kitchen appliances and maybe let future reservations know there is no cable. TV and DVD are there but no one has dvds anymore. Maybe invest in a Roku. House is very spacious. Lots of room to accommodate families. Restrooms were nice. There are plenty of towels and kitchenware. Neighbors were nice. We were comfortable.

Close

This little place is close to the shops and dining in Shaver lake. Bring some fire wood if you can for those chilly days. We did wash the dishes prior to using because we didn't know how well the previous renters cleaned them.

Was very disappointed on the place. Place needs better furniture and needs better access to A television. No one uses DVD. Could use some TLC. . Place gets very hot no great fans to ventilate the place. Horrible accommodations.

It was perfect for us!

Our family of 5 and two sets of grandparents just enjoyed 5 days at this perfect cabin in the snow. There was plenty of space for everyone and we enjoyed big meals at the dining room table, looking at the backyard full of snow. Our dog came, too and had a great time. The stairs upstairs are very steep so there was some anxiety with our 5 year old and our dog couldn’t get up them and there wasn’t enough paper towels/toilet paper/garbage bags provided but the store was a nice 5 min walk away.

Holiday Get away

Things i liked: Location was great. Close to town and nearby shops. Place was clean and had more than enough cooking utensils for our stay. Met our needs for the holiday stay. Things I was disappointed in : TV is too small & should be a smart TV. It advertised a blue ray DVD, however had no DVDs there to watch - had to bring ur own. No board games, cards, etc.. Couldn''t watch regular TV. Should have at least an Antenna. No filters for coffee maker, small container of dish soap for us although we advised we were staying for 5 days- Thanksgiving. No dishwasher- so should have extra soap being we have to do more dishes for the holiday.,Microwave handle broken. 4/5 blinds missing on lower part. People could see in at night. We fixed that for next guess by replacing/ rearranging missing blinds in middle. No porch light to see outside front entrance- good thing we had a flashlight. All and all.. ok place.

Nice place at a reasonable price

Redwood Haven met all our requirements - clean, large enough to accommodate 3 couples, pet friendly, reasonable price and fairly well stocked. Here are a few suggestions for guests - if you plan to microwave, there are dishes that work, but not any microwave cookware (with lids), though there are lots of regular pots and pans. While there is a TV with DVD (Blu-Ray?), there is no cable or dish, so if you want to watch anything, either bring something to connect your laptop or bring some videos. For the host, since the place is dog friendly, I would suggest supplying a long-handled shovel to aid in picking up dog poop outside. There was a fair amount of dog droppings left by previous guests (which I picked up), but I think providing a shovel and suggesting guests clean-up before leaving would help. Also, while all the floors downstairs have been replaced, along with the upstairs bathroom, the loft and upstairs bedroom are carpeted. My dog was very interested in all the smells and spots in the carpet and before she could add to the spots, we decided that we could not stay upstairs with her, so we had to pick a downstairs room. It would be nice if eventually the upstairs carpeting was replaced with flooring, which would make it possible to keep the place cleaner. Outside of that, we had an awesome time and would consider staying there again, if we are ever in the area.

Nice cabin!

Had a great time!!Overall cabin was pretty clean except floors probably needs a good mopping. One burner not working on stove top. Living room furniture/beds could be updated .Beds caved in the middle so we didnt sleep well. Even with the bed issues I'd stay here again.
