Overall good but could have some improvements

Need a dishwasher since guests are expected to wash dishes. It's not sanitary and we have to rely on someone else actually hand washing the dishes prior to us. You never know if the people that stayed before you just rinsed them off and called it a day. At least have a drying rack and drying towels if we are expected to do the dishes. Also the rules posted on the refrigerator contradicted instructions that were communicated through email/text. But overall 4/5. Amanda was very nice and the property was clean.

Cooks Forest

The property was as pictured and was in a good location to enjoy the beautiful park. The fire pit in the back yard was a great place to enjoy the outdoors. House was clean but lacking a few things to make the stay comfortable. No dressers in the bedrooms so any personal items had to be left on the floor. Seating in the main area was not comfortable. The host contacted me twice in advance to offer 2 hour early check in for an additional $25. I thought that was in poor taste, as I have stayed at many VRBOs and if we were able to check in early the host never charged extra. For me, that just put a negative vibe right from the start.

Cabin in the woods

The home was very comfortable and the decor was great. Communication with the host, Amanda was very easy and she answered right back. I wasn’t crazy about the surveillance cameras but I understand protecting your property and security. Overall it was very relaxing, which is what I was looking for

Maple Creek Cabin

We LOVED our cozy, comfy cabin! Close to Cook Forest. Beautiful firepit! Just what we hoped for! If you go, take dish towels & your favorite cookware from home (there were pans there but not the best - I’m a picky cook.). Also toilet tissue - We were allotted one roll for our stay. More coffee mugs would be needed for more than 2 guests. And a few wine glasses would be nice as well. The beds were so comfy!!! The cabin was clean & smelled so fresh & welcoming!! Lots of fresh bath towels. A broom on the back porch would be nice - I would’ve swept the porch. But understamd, you are in a cabin in a wooded area so dust is to be expected. The storm door glass needs a good cleaning as it had lots of handprints & smudges so if the inside door was open & the sun shining through the glass, it wasn’t a good look. All in all I give 5 ⭐️ Thank you Amanda! We loved it here & I didn’t want to leave!! 😊

Wonderful Week Away

We had a great week at this cabin. It was my husband and I (and our college-age son joined us for a few days). It was clean and had all the conveniences that we wanted. The location was perfect, being just minutes and a beautiful drive to Cooks Forest. We even spent some time exploring the Allegheny Forest. Amanda was easy to contact and had thought of everything we needed for our stay. It was a very comfortable, relaxing, quiet place to stay. We would love to visit again.

quiet and comfortable getaway home

Maple Creek Cabin is a comfortable and clean home. We did not cook there but kitchen had basic items to use if cooking . There is no table to sit at if eating there. There is a more of a short bar type area with seats. Coffee pot and Keurig coffee machine for coffee drinkers. Look up above the stove for the wifi password. I did not see it right away. The location was very quiet with houses on both sides. It was a comfortable home to stay in and would recommend it for a getaway in this beautiful area.
