Summary: The living area, kitchen and bathrooms were clean, that's where it stops. The ceiling fans were covered with dust. For health reasons we cleaned the dust off the fans. The next issue is the front entrance area, walls and doors, is filthy, and the carpets are EXTREMELY dirty. We were embarrassed for our guests to see the condition of the interior, so I washed the front entrance area to make it more presentable. We were concerned with the color of the water; ranging from light yellow to light rust. The toilet bowls were rust colored when we arrived, which indicated they were not cleaned, I cleaned both. There is a water filter on the hot water line. The filter needs to be installed after the pressure relief valve so the entire water service to the home is "filtered". By installing the filter on one line; you're showering, laundering with unfiltered (tainted) water. Again, not a healthy situation. We purchase bottled water for drinking and cooking. Additionally, the water pressure in the master bathroom is weak. We put our guests in the master bedroom and we slept in the second bedroom which had NO TV. Why would you not put a TV in that room when you have a TV in every other room in the house? Needless to say, but I am going to say, the house is cleaner now than when we arrived. The property owner needs to inspect their property and see how poorly Vacasa is managing the property. This has no reflection on VRBO. I have photos.

Summary: This house was perfect for a quick getaway with my dog. The neighborhood was quiet and walkable. The beds need upgading as well as the lighting.

Summary: We really liked the house, it was exactly as expected and we had a good time while we were there. We had a minor issue with the air conditioning upon arrival, we reported it to Vacasa and were told that the local management team would get back to us as soon as possible. We never heard another word from them the entire duration of the trip.

Summary: This home was a last minute rental for us. The location was great being near the August Garrett County Fair (7 minutes) and an easy drive to the parks and Oakland. The home is very clean excepting the stained carpets in the bedrooms. We had a couple of meals and found all we needed with the exception of typical glassware (ice tea, tumblers and juice glasses). Beware that the high top table and barstools might not be for everyone, My 85 year old Dad navigated them okay but not all 85 year olds are as in good shape as my Dsd. There is a covered table with chairs outside with an umbrella. I’d stay here again. Great updates on an older home.

Summary: We enjoyed our stay at the Birdhouse Lodge. It was quiet, cozy and had a great view of nature. The road to get there was steep and bumpy but my Prius handled it (in June, no snow). The main bed was too soft, but without the foam topper it was just right for us. The listing is accurate except that there are now FOUR TVs and nice chairs around the firepit. If you plan to cook, bring a few things (hot mitts, aluminum foil, etc). Other reviews are right about the extremely low water pressure. That seems to be true most places near Deep Creek. Still, it was lovely!

Summary: This house has all the bones to be a great vacation rental. We may have been first guests of the summer season because it seemed unoccupied from spiderwebs and old papertowels found in a bedroom. But amenity wise it was good. Good space with the downstairs and deck. Updated bathrooms. Would definitely stay again.

Summary: Home was clean. Had plenty of room to move around in. Basement was nice for hanging out in. The road to house is steep. Highly recommend 4WD vehicle. Located near activities in Deep Creek. Only downside is no dishwasher so need to hand wash any dishes used.
