Aug 1, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic Off the Beaten Path Cabin We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Heardlot! From swimming in the lake to game nights to reading on the back porch, it was a welcome break from real life. Cabin seemed tucked off the beaten side path, but was not far from so many great hikes, Cashiers and Highlands! The kids were delighted to find it was less than a mile to Cashiers Sliding Rock and the grownups were just delighted. Thanks for a great stay! ##### M.E. H.

I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was a beautiful surprise. The house was very clean and with all that is necessary. The only thing I would improve is the lightning because in the evenings it was dark in the common aéreas. And maybe have something for the mosquitoes or little bugs. ##### Josefina R.

Aug 9, 2021 #### Not what we excepted Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very unhappy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: On a positive note the cabin has plenty of room for a large family, and the reality company was very nice and helpful. However, the cabin was dirty and smelled. We opened the door and the smell of moth balls was so strong it was hard to breathe. The cabin also has a moldy smell ( probably the reason for the moth balls) the showers had dead bugs and spiders, rat feces was on the pillow shams, headboard, and floor of one of the back bedrooms. The furniture was old and dirty, we put a sheet over the sofa so we could set on it. I cleaned the vinyl chairs in the dinning area and the paper towels I clean them with was black with dirt. I’m just glad we only rented for a weekend and not a week. Very disappointed !! ##### Tammy S.
