Dirty unit, unresponsive management Rental itself was a great location and very nice. Communication with Family Time Vacation Rentals was awful. Had to ask for check-in info multiple times in the days before the trip before they sent it. Arrived to a dirty unit, had not been cleaned between guests (dirty bathroom, overflowing trash, sticky counters, dirty sheets, wet towels on bed). Manager was unresponsive with getting housekeeping there. Took hours longer than expected. Was unresponsive to future phone calls.

disappointed Property misrepresented as ski in- ski out. Additionally, it was much smaller than the pictures appeared. We specifically asked about TVs in the bedrooms and they assured us they were there but in fact some were not.

I am writing as a property owner. I am writing as a property owner, not a renter. The start of the process seemed promising, great phone chats, great reviews from others, they checked off all boxes that we were looking for. From there it kind of went downhill. It took them almost 3 months to get our property listed for rental. During that communication, the owner blamed that on us having something unfinished that didn't impact renters anyways. Our new management company got our property listed in 72 hours. Cleaning was good to start, but it was also new construction. From there cleaning went down drastically. We started with all 5 star reviews on sites like Airbnb, but then our last three were all very low reviews. We looked at the property and saw that the showers were never cleaned, hair all over, kitchen appliances not put away or cleaned, linens had hair all over, food residue on pots and pans, coffee maker not emptied, etc. Three times in the first year we noted items that were damaged (ie: blinds pulled down, permanent marker on walls, etc) and they never noted those or said "they missed them". They never followed up. Last is lack of communication and follow up with guests and owner. Whenever we sent e-mails, txts, or calls, it took days and weeks for action to be taken. Guests commented that they never had clear communication from the company. The company was notified by us that the guests were not able to get into the keypad lock they installed. They were outside the cabin for over two hours with no answer from the management company. We were ashamed of our service for our renters while they talked to us over the ring door cam. The management company never change or fixed that lock for 8 weeks. We had multiple sets of renters that had issues before a repair took place. They will respond and make you believe that they are on top of issues, but they really are not. I think they took on too many properties with not enough staff. The ending that upset me and caused me to write this is when they removed the lock and thermostat they installed and put our original ones back in, they incorrectly installed the thermostat which blasted heat 24-7 for half a week in July till our alarm system was triggered and needed emergency HVAC repairs to be done. We had three reservations with them as well and they asked if we could keep those and we agreed. They then waited a month and moved/canceled those bookings which we could have rented out earlier. I have strong issues with trust and honesty with this company. At first they seemed like the best thing that happened to us, and it was a nightmare after that. Please be diligent in your research of hiring a property management company, it could cost you a lot, like it did us.

Highly Recommend I prefer booking our Duck Creek cabins through Family Time Vacation Rentals over VRBO or HomeAway. They are more personal and don't tack on a lot of extra fees. Plus it's always nice talking to someone "live". Responses are quick as well!

Poor management.... I would have to say that the people that we talk to were rude they both could not get their story straight and they made us stress at Christmas because they did not have their s*** together for 3 months we had property but we did not have it then they make us go out of our way to alter our vacation and still two days before we are supposed to arrive they didn't give us our information that we needed to get in the cabin then we get there and the lock box is clearly in front of us but it's old how are we to know and my 6/8 ft husband is told to lace his hands over what is about going dead lock box we get in there our sheets on three of our beds are dirty have pictures coffee pot couldn't find it when we did was nasty got pictures there's lots of things that you're not told because they don't keep up on them maintenance of who they hire and how they are to clean the place grill we had to burn a lot of gas to clean it.. my advice is to plan your head 6 months and make sure everything is okay and weather permitted. There were several things couch cushions you lift them up don't do it.. I can't go on but I sound ridiculous but it's not because you're spending a lot of money to stay a few days and get all of your plans jacked up especially before the holidays that's the last thing you want to worry about right...
