The Blue Moose was absolutely fantastic. It was just as advertised. Very clean and a perfect location for exploring Bryson City, Cherokee, and the Smokey mountains. There is nothing I would change, and would rent this property again in the future.
âA Dreamy Beachfront Escapeâ
Our stay at this house was absolutely amazing. The location is unbeatable, with direct ocean views and a serene atmosphere thatâs hard to find. The house was spotless, well-equipped, and itâs clear that every detail is thoughtfully taken care of to ensure guests feel at home.
Waking up to the sound of the waves and watching the sunsets from the terrace were truly unforgettable experiences. The hosts were incredibly attentive and made sure everything was perfect during our stay.
This is definitely a place weâd love to return to. Highly recommended for anyone looking to disconnect and enjoy nature at its finest!
Nice place and great location near shopping and restaurants. Loved the deck and the ocean views. Awesome to be just steps from the beach! Grill did not work when we arrived so the manager had a new one delivered for us which was awesome service!
Location and deck were nice. Accommodations good. Some very minor repair things to do. Furniture okay. Master bed very comfortable. Nothing fancy here for the price but overall we did like it. May try to stay here again.
Villano Beach is a beautiful beach, location is perfect, view is wonderful. But please read on before renting!!!
Carpets are stained and dated, dining chairs also stained. Worn and holes in living room chair. When we took off bed sheets, discovered stains on matters pad cover and stained pillows. Furniture worn, mattress terrible. We have stayed in many vacation rentals and never have seen this prior. Always rate a 5 but not here!
The water comes from well water, which should be fine if functioning correctly. It clearly is NOT, smells worse than reclaimed water our entire stay. When sprinkler would come on, the smell got worse, leading us to believe there may be a backflow issue. Recommending local health department does a water quality test.
Another major issue was lack of security between the downstairs unit and upstairs unit. Fortunately for us, our daughter and family were staying in that unit, and we discovered that the door between the 2 was not locked. They have furniture at the door leading people to believe it is a locked door. Also owner came during our stay, opened garage door and left it open. We were not informed of this until we inquired who was here and why an open garage door that leads to our units. Broken door knobs, and lack of extra towels. I could go on, but I think this tells all that there is lack of quality control. Unit needs a refresh! Furniture, kitchen, bathroom, and appliances. Dishwasher works terrible, thus sticky dishes. Very stingy on giving extra towels since they have a linen service. One should not have to do laundry to get an extra set of bath towels. 1 wash cloth in master bathroomâŠhmmmm! Would not recommend!
Check around before committing to this unit!

The location is Awesome
The place needs up dating. House could have been cleaner. Washer very loud and the Sulfur water is a deal killer for me. Itâs a easy fix with a water filtration system. Over all love the location.
This was our 2nd stay here. We love the location of the house. It is right on the beach; the views are amazing and the convenience to town is great. With that being said, the house could use some new mattresses. There is a thin piece of plywood between the box springs and the mattress in the master bedroom, because the mattress is so old and sagging. Also, the living room could use some more seating. Even with our family of four, not everyone could stretch out comfortably to watch TV at the end of the day. Overall, we had a great time. The convenience of the house to the beach and town is the best part. Would definitely stay again if mattresses were replaced!
Wonderful, peaceful setting right on beach. Easy walk or short drive to shops and convenience stores. Unit had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend!

We are returning guests to Vilano's Edge and were somewhat disappointed this time. The first time the owner checked us in and covered everything we needed to know about the house. We did not have a problem with letting ourselves in but we had some questions about how to operate the televisions, there were no instructions left for this and as a result never were able to use the bedroom tv. We tried on several occasions to reach out to management but they never resolved the problem. One tv would normally may have been enough but we had a 12 yr old with us and mostly did not prefer the same programs as the adults. Also, the beach chairs and equipment were in poor condition, the boards were not usable and some of the chairs as well. We felt the entire house needed an update, the chairs in the dining area were badly stained. The kitchen was adequate but only 4 cups and no potholders. The bathrooms could use updating and the odor of the water was bad. On the up side the location to the beach and downtown were excellent.
Everything was clean and ready when we arrived. Able to walk straight out the back door to the beach and was able to just sit on the patio and relax enjoying listening to the waves. We even saw dolphins a couple of times. The only downfall is the smell of the water but that is just a part of the area.
Great location, easy access, clean, roomy and well stocked with essentials. Deck is worn and in need of work.
The only issue we had was when the AC went out and VACASA, the management Company was useless. I finally reached out to owners for assistance and Laurie responded quickly.
Hope to be able to stay here again!
Great experience. Easy rental process, including check-in and check out process. Perfect location away from all the chaos but so close you can join in at any moment when you feel like having some fun! My only negative would be more an âinvestment recommendation â and that is to rip up the carpet and replace with plank flooring. This would definitely add to the property value and make renters feel more comfortable staying, especially knowing this is a pet friendly beach.
Location was very nice. Everything you need/want was close by. Living spaces were clean and functional. Kitchen, bathrooms and furnishings could be updated.
