Beautiful place, very bright, well furnished, and located just 10 minutes from Deer Valley and Park City resorts. Kitchen is a very nice size, and well stocked with cookware. Photos actually make the place look smaller than it is. No curtains on the master, but it has a great view, and we felt no issues with privacy. We would definitely stay here again.
Our biggest and only issue was with Vacasa management, who has been the worst group we’ve dealt with, by far, in 16 years of renting vacation homes around the world. Very basic safety issues were not fixed without a LOT of prodding. Every encounter felt like we were dealing with the phone company—no customer communication, at least a day to respond to any email, a seemingly willful inability to understand us on the phone, responses that had very little to do with our questions, and an aversion to putting anything in writing.
We arrived to find the porch light burnt out which then took 5 days to get fixed, it took days to get a dangerous ice dam in front of the garage broken up (after they told us to do it ourselves and we had to point out that there was no shovel or pick ax), many pieces of furniture had severely wobbly legs, there was no info on how to use the electric-starter fireplace or where to put garbage. Also, there was no usual welcome book with local info, house details or even check out instructions.
There are groups like Grand Welcome who also provide management service for individually owned vacation places, who are super responsive. We’ve never had an experience like this. The problem here is not the business model, it’s the management. I hope that Vacasa is doing a great job for the owner, because they are terrible for renters.
