We were over in Redmond for the Memorial Day baseball tournament and stayed here. The location is great, the back deck is nice and peaceful and looks out on a pond. The kids loved finding big bull frogs in the pond and swimming in the pools. We love Eagle Crest and this was a great location and house!
Has everything you need but house needs a deep clean
The house was ok, had everything you would need and expect from the Eagle Crest chalets. Bedspread desperately needed to be washed. The whole needs to be deep cleaned. Felt it was too expensive for a house that wasnât kept up. But it got the job done.
We stayed at this home to attend a family wedding and wanted a home with a hot tub. The hot tub and deck were fantastic and the location beautiful. There were a couple of issues that I notified Vacasa about to be remedied. We enjoyed our time there.
Nice house with a great hot tub on the deck. Needs more blankets and a much larger garbage can in the kitchen. Trash was overflowing outside when we checked in. Itâs very far away from amenities so bring your bike or rent one onsite. Amazing amenities at the resort in multiple locations!
We had a large group of students and adults attending a convention in the Redmond area. We booked 5 homes through VRBO and they were all within 8 houses of each other on the same street. It made it great for travel, food preparation, and sleeping arrangements. We truly appreciate the owners for allowing us to rent and have such a great experiences in this home.
Everything was as expected with a couple of exceptions.The pool etc was several blocks away.....not very convenient for Seniors and the A/C could not be set below 70 which left the upstairs bedroom etc very warm.However,it was over 100 degrees during our stay. Very satisfied with our stay for the most part.
The chairs on the deck were covered in bird poop. The grill had not been cleaned basically ever and caught on fire ruining our dinner the stove burner didnât work the dish washer was disgusting and also didnât work and was damaged. There were dead bugs everywhere including the hot tube and sinks. There was 1 dish towel. Over all this could be a great place to stay but it was actually horrible due to lack of maintenance on every single level!
We enjoyed ou stay at Prairie Falcon Retreat while in town for the Bouldering competition. It was very cozy and homey. The kitchen was fairly well stocked with dishes but a little lacking in food staples like salt, seasonings or oil. No coffee or tea. There were lots of TVs but they are very outdated. No smart TVs. Hot tub was great and a service person came while we were there so we know it is well maintained. Overall a great home.
This house looked like it had never been cleaned. The dish washer was full of broken glass and the shower drain was full of hair, like it literally wasnât clean. The hot tub was also entirely murky. The pillows smelled like mildew and the bedding was really unclean.
We have stayed at Eagle Crest a number of times over the last 15 years, including in a neighbor of this unit just last year. The property has a lot of great activity options, although over the years it has gotten a lot busier and they have locked things down with extra hoops and rules, so it's not quite as enjoyable as when it felt more laid-back and quiet, but it's still a fun and family-friendly place to visit. We'll certainly be back to the property.
This unit was fine. It was very clean, the hot tub was in good working order, there were lots of towels. There were plenty of kitchen gadgets (blender, toaster, waffle iron, a great coffee maker), but but the pans have seen better days and there was an open vent/hole in the kitchen baseboard that froze our feet as we cooked and cleaned. It was one of the starkest units we have stayed in--lots of "rule" signs, generic guides and instructions that didn't even have the blanks filled in, no seasoning/oil/ingredient supplies in the kitchen other than a 5 lb bag of sugar and a salt and pepper shaker (which were in a strange place so we didn't even find them until we were packing up to leave).
The back deck was moderately private (some units are more secluded than this one while others less), although they did a good job tucking the hot tub back for privacy. There was a nice little space off the deck, including a creek and a pond, that the kid enjoyed exploring.
The question I submitted received an answer right away. I did find the fact that Vacasa (the property management company) doesn't use the HomeAway (or VRBO) app for messaging slightly frustrating. I downloaded their proprietary app because of that, but their app doesn't have a messaging component, just creates an email, so there was really no point to that extra step and I wish they would have directed me to email instead of telling me to download the app.
Bottom line: We wouldn't deter someone from staying in this unit. There was nothing wrong with it. It just met the minimum expectations with no special touches to bump it up to 5 stars.
(Better unremarkable than problematic! This was not that.)
The house served our purpose but had some issues. The air conditioning isnât effective in the upstairs bedroom, leaving it 10 degrees warmer than the rest of the house. The stove had two burners that didnât work. Location is great and the creek/lake in the back was a highlight for our kids.
Very Small garbage cans
Poor tub drains and water pressure
Dishwasher needs run 2 times before dishes get clean
Dining chairs were pretty rickety and one was broken apon arrival but we assembled it back to using order for the rest of our stay
There were items left under the beds and Tobacco products left in the cupboard, the living room furniture could use updating as itâs falling apart on pillows and cushions the hot tub on deck read a error code and we were unable to use jets or lights on it. Other than the things listed we had a great stay and the house is in a great location!
The overall stay was good. We had a full house. We only had three garbage bags so we had to buy more garbage bags and the upstairs shower head was like taking a shower under a garden hose. Upstairs shower head needs to be replaced. Minor little things but the overall stay was good.
Not clean, a pile of gold fish crackers under a bed, vacuum broken.Downstairs tub drain issues, showering in ankle deep water, stained linens, front of dishwasher falling off, hole in upstairs blind.
We were there to prep and celebrate our daughters wedding in the area and didnât have time to deal with these rental issues and felt we shouldnât have had to. Very disappointed.
The house was not clean - one of the beds wasnât made when we got there with the comforter on top in a pile, the dishes were still wet and had food stuck to them, one bedroom had piles of dust in the corner and dirt on the walls. The bunk bed was so creaky and loud we had to pull the mattresses out to the living room because any movement made a squeky noise. Definitely not clean!
The sports center passes are really nice and the area is super cool! Wish we had more time to take advantage of those facilities and the put put course near by. We would love to come back but would stay at a different house next time!
This home comfortably accommodated our family and had all the amenities you could ask for. It was very clean and close to everything we could possibly want.
Pluses:
Comfortable furniture and fireplace easy to use.
New hot tub.
Well stocked linen closet, washer and dryer.
Well stocked kitchen with glassware and dishes.
Great location.
Minus (needs work):
Very dusty.
DVR/VCR player didn't work, and full of dust.
Burned out light bulbs in ceilings.
Kitchen skillets are health hazards, dirty and burned on rust, very gross.
Shower heads very weak.
Shower handle fell off, fortunately husband had tools to fix it.
Needed snow shovel and ice melt for porch. steps and walkway due to snowfall.
Overall, a good stay. Photos made it look polished and spotless but it was not.
Overall, the property was lovely, clean and had what we (mostly) needed. One of the house keys did not work, but that was easily managed with just having one key. The home is lacking a few things: DVD player (however, the home had good alternative streaming services), a griddle, bigger pans for cooking larger meals....we were able to figure it out, but those would be nice. The fireplace needs some maintenance and that was reported to the Vacasa managing team. We would return to this home!
We didnât love anything about this vacation rental. The refrigerator (leaked and the ice maker doesnât work) and dishwasher (it doesnât clean) need replacing. Hot tub does not work on jet cycle so plan on a hot bath at best. Shower doors on main level came off tracks multiple times. Family room furniture is outdated, uncomfortable and needs replacing. Cookware needs replacing. Shower heads are bunk and donât spray correctly. Had a cool pond in the backyard though which gave the littles plenty of frog catching time! Overall itâs subpar at best and honestly we are pretty bummed we didnât get what we paid for. Donât rent this one and find something else. Good luck!
