• Very cute but that's where it stops

  2/5

  I chose this place because it looked super cute and was close to a race a few friends and I were running. Looks can be deceiving. Very disappointed.

  Opportunities for improvement:

  1) The WIFI was non-existent. As someone who had never been in the area and a woman in a remote location, WIFI was important.

  2) The shower water was only hot for a few minutes and went ice cold. You had to turn off the water and turn it back on before it was warm again. After running a race in the rain this was not okay. (seemed like it had a timer on it or something)

  3) The security light for the stairs worked if you were coming up the stairs from the car but if you were going down the stairs from the rooms on the upper level the light did not turn on until you hit the 1st landing. Very dangerous at night.

  4) The key pad for the door code did not light up so you cant see the numbers to unlock the door.

  5) The dishwasher is very old and a seal is coming loose so be careful when you turn the dishwasher on that the seal is in the dishwasher and not stuck in the door or the dishwasher will leak.

  6) The beds are not terribly comfortable.

  7) The heater / air conditioner unit buttons are missing and one can electrocute oneself trying to turn the temperature down. It really does not work well either so bring extra blankets.

  I would look elsewhere if you want creature comforts.

  Hi Laura, the right vacation home is everything, and we're disappointed if this wasn't the one for you. We followed up with the homeowner after reading your feedback, and they wanted to share the following:
  - We were surprised to see read your review, as we were not made aware of these concerns, during the stay, and would have addressed any questions or concerns, with urgency, as we always do for every guest
  - Our guest contact information is provided to each guest, prior to their stay for that purpose, along with the house manual and WiFi details
  - Additionally, the WiFi code is on the fridge
  - Cell service can be spotty in the area but that is not in our control.
  - The dishwasher is brand new and in perfect working order
  - We will inspect the security lights to ensure they are serving the intended purpose we have several lights on the deck area and string lights that come on at night, around the deck, and lights in the parking area
  - The heater is usually extra warm in that suite, and we supply extra pillows and blankets in the closet
  - We did reach out to you, in an effort to ensure a great stay, as we do with all of our guests, and received no response
  - We are very sorry that your experience fell short, but we will continue to strive to provide a 5-star experience for all of our guests, as we always have. Thank you

  Didnt realize it was a quadrex but I liked it and met some nice people that were staying there as well. Lots of space outside for my Baby to run play. Good location

  Hi Angela, thank you for taking the time to leave your review! The homeowner has asked us to pass along the following message: "Thanks for coming to stay at Fish Tales. I am sorry you did not realize it was a 4 plex most of our guests have enjoyed that aspect and have had a good experience. The peacefulness of the area is so relaxing. We would love to host you again and thank you. Sonja and Robert Green"

• This was a beautifully decorated cabin and the view was wonderful! Sonja was beyond helpful and nice

  5/5

  We had a wonderful, peaceful stay! This is an excellent property and we'll return again. The gravel road up to there was beyond rough but we were told it was being fixed soon.

  From the owners: "Kenny, it was a pleasure hosting you and we certainly appreciate your great review. We have our request in for the road to be grated. The last gravel added ended up at the bottom and all these spring downpours have made it difficult. Thanks again."

• Great place to stay.

  5/5
