No complaints about the property whatsoever. It was immaculate upon arrival. The very few questions we had were answered immediately via text. The only complaint was that the properties in this complex sit very close together, and the neighbors were extremely loud with inappropriate language for the ears of our children, that went into late night hours. This is likely beyond the control of Vacasa, but I feel it worth mentioning for those who prefer a quiet vacation.
