Erik G review for Cabins for You

Before I start this one star review I would like to say that we have used cabins for you in the past and never had an issue. I wish I would have taken more photos of this trashy cabin but we were honestly too grossed out to want to be in there for any longer. When we arrived to this dump the first thing we noticed was the amount of trash scattered around the front and sides of the property, you think the company would have someone clean up the trash left from previous guests but I guess they don't care about that. The first thing we noticed after walking into the Trashy cabin was the flooring in the kitchen/living room area was disgusting and actually separating from its self in several spots. My youngest son took his shoes and socks off upon arrival and the floor was so dirty, the bottom of his feet were covered in black dirt/ nastiness. We then moved into the bedroom where we noticed a nasty smell as soon as you enter the room, we also could hear running water coming from the bathroom. Once I walked into the bathroom I noticed the sink was constantly leaking and very loudly at that. We knew immediately that we did not want to stay at this unkept and dirty dump of a cabin, unfortunately we had no choice but to spend the night anyway. We took the sheets off of the bed so we could place our sheets on and realized the smell we noticed earlier was actually coming from the mattress! It was absolutely disgusting and to make the sleeping situation even worse the white blanket they had folded up in the cabinet had a big blood stain on it! After a long and sleepless night inside of this dirty cabin I was finally able to speak with someone from Cabins For You. They told me they could send housekeeping out but unfortunately that wasn't going to cut it. This place should have been cleaned before we arrived. We made our way into town and I was lucky enough to find an Airbnb Cabin that was available for the remainder of our stay. We made our way back to the Dump of a cabin we rented from Cabins For You to grab our bags(we didn't even unpack) and there was no power or water. I made another call to Cabins For You and was greeted by a very rude employee that was no help at all. I went ahead and had the rude employee check us out early and place me on a list to speak with a manager. The next day I was able to speak with a very helpful/nice employee and eventually was able to speak with a manager named Nichole who was not able to help me but at least she was very friendly and professional. To sum this horrible review up, I will never book a cabin from Cabins For You again, I'd take my chances sleeping under the bridge for the week then staying in a dump of a cabin like Mountain Breeze. To make the entire situation "better" my refund request was denied. I had the cabin booked from 12/10/21-12/14/21 and we only stayed one night! I wonder where the money goes because it sure doesn't go to cleaning or maintaining the cabins they rent out!
Business Response:

Erik, arriving at your vacation only to encounter an unkempt yard and inadequate cleaning is certainly disappointing. We can understand your frustration when entering the property only to have issues with a leaking faucet and a foul smell coming from the mattress, on top of the area having a power outage causing you to lose power and water. This is nowhere near our standard, and we regret to hear your vacation was impacted negatively. We appreciate you bringing these matters to our attention right away. We would have been happy to send someone out to take care of the inconveniences, but we understand you did not want housekeeping to come back out, as this should have been taken care of before arrival. We have passed your comments and concerns along to the appropriate departments, and we will work with upper management to ensure this is rectified immediately. We hate to hear you felt uncared for as we truly value you as our guests, and we again apologize sincerely for the inconveniences you had to face. We hope you will be able to revisit the Smokies soon for a more enjoyable stay.

Management was unreachable. Issues galore. Hot tub not hot. Indoor pool area too cold to be used. Theatre room unusable without techno expert. Price gouging Wanted to extend a day and was quoted 3 different and increasing prices (all attributed to a calculation error) until price was outrageous. Representatives were difficult to reach, unhelpful and rude.
Business Response:

Brooke, we truly understand your disappointment, and we are saddened to hear this was your experience. Having issues with the hot tub and the pool must have been frustrating, especially when these were the amenities you were looking forward to enjoying. On top of that, you had difficulties contacting us, and this is absolutely not how we wanted you to spend your vacation. We appreciate your bringing these matters to our attention as soon as possible, and though we were able to send a vendor out to rectify these inconveniences, we can understand the discomfort this caused. We recognize you were also misquoted regarding adding an extra night, and we can assure you this was not done intentionally. This has been brought to the attention of management, and we sincerely apologize. Again, we truly hate your stay was not as enjoyable as you or we would have hoped, and we would like to have the opportunity to provide you with a better experience in the future, as this isn't normal for us.

I received a receipt for a membership fee of $14.99. I haven't used cabins for you since Memorial Day. We enjoyed our trip. However, I did not realize there would be a membership fee. I feel this may have been hidden in one of the forms I signed to rent the cabin. It seems unnecessary to have a membership fee and I would likely not have used them if I realized this was included as I had planned on it being a 1 time trip. I have never had to pay a membership fee for any other vacation rental service. It feels like a scam to continue to get money from people even if they are not currently utilizing the services.

I am absolutely disappointed; I booked the "Cavern Cascades" cabin for my Mom and we did not get to enjoy it as we should. The very first night of our stay my niece noticed insects. The situation was made known to the staff and the maintenance crew confirmed them to be "bed bugs." After this information, of course we did not feel comfortable staying; packed up and left in the late evening with a 8 hour trip ahead of us. I was refunded my money but, what about all the hassles and inconveniences we faced such as: van rental fees,time off work,food and lots of other items that had to be thrown out, and dog kennel charges just to name a few. An establishment like this should be very well maintained and just to give me back the money I already had in the first place doesn't seem satisfying. I desire compensation for lost money and emotionally distress as well-
Business Response:

Tiffany, we can certainly understand how frustrating it must have been to encounter bed bugs during your stay, and we absolutely hate this happened. We have strict procedures in place in the event bedbugs are suspected, and we're grateful you let us know right away so we could get pest control out to evaluate the situation. As bedbugs were unfortunately confirmed, we advised of the available options available in terms of a refund, and the decision was made to leave the cabin. We promptly processed the agreed-upon refund as discussed, and we again hate this situation happened, as we know this must have been alarming. Unfortunately, no lodging or hospitality company is exempt from encountering bedbugs in rare circumstances, and while they certainly are alarming and can be troublesome to exterminate, they are able to be resolved with proper treatment by a professional.

Business Response:

Joseph, we are so sorry there were issues at the cabin that made you and your family feel neglected, especially when this is supposed to be a time of relaxation. This shouldn't have happened and we sincerely apologize. We can understand how frustrating it must have been to have to deal with the dryer not working, as well as encountering leaks and other concerns, and we hate your vacation was negatively affected by these things. And while we did send our maintenance staff out to address these problems as best we could, unfortunately, these were unable to be resolved during your stay and we truly hate this was the case. Management has been in touch with you since your stay, and our offer of a gift certificate to be used towards a future stay is still available to you should you change your mind. We sincerely apologize for your poor experience, and we are working with the departments directly involved to ensure these items are rectified appropriately. We hope this experience does not deter you from revisiting the Smokies in the future, no matter where you may choose to stay.

This is a message I sent to Cabins For You after speaking civily with them for 4 days. Pretty ***** how they did us. I requested a refund because we never stayed a night at the cabin. Check in was at 4pm. We arrived around 5. We briefly sat down and ate fast food. Before unpacking I proceeded to check for bed bugs. I found a few dead ones. Since yesterday I have spoke to a gentleman that owns a pest control company and he def. says the pics I sent him are bed bugs because of the blood stains. I did not know what to do when I discovered them so I called and spoke with Page. She advised me they would have to send pest control out to verify. But...couldn't send anyone until the next day. She assured me if there were any signs of bed bugs I would get a refund. Or..if there was bed bugs we could get a 25% discount to stay. ð??³ð??³ Seeing as how they couldn't send anyone out until the next day we decided to leave and go somewhere else because she said they couldn't put us anywhere else. We didn't want to chance taking bed bugs back home. It was me and my wife's 4 year anniversary. We ended up having to spend another almost $900 somewhere else. We found dog poop under the bed. The lid to the washer was almost detached. The couch had tears everywhere. And one of the door frames were completely busted. I would have dealt with all of that but the dead bed bugs really made our decision to leave. I emailed and let them know we decided to leave. I got a response the next day for a cancelation for all of the days. Long story short I was told the room tested negative for active case of bed bugs. A request for a refund was supposedly sent in and denied. I even asked for just my Friday and Saturday $ back because they had to send someone up on Friday morning. I was told I couldn't return Friday and Saturday because it was "cancelled." I had no choice but to go somewhere else and feel like this is no way to treat a paying customer who payed all up front at once. I was told if the policy was written different I would got a refund. I understand its not anyone's fault about the bed bugs situation but also not any way to treat a customer. I have details/pics for proof. Plus....if you suspect bed bugs call your own pest control out to verify before speaking to anyone.
Business Response:

Joseph, we're saddened to hear your experience with us was so poor, and we're truly sorry this happened. We can certainly understand how alarming it must have been to encounter suspected bed bugs, especially when you were supposed to be celebrating such a special occasion. We appreciate you letting us know of your concerns right away so we could have pest control inspect the property as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, the vendor was unable to inspect the cabin until the next morning, and we understand this was beyond inconvenient. Upon inspection, the cabin did not have bed bugs. As such, per our policies laid out in our rental agreement and on our website, we're unfortunately unable to offer a refund in this case. Again, we apologize greatly for your negative experience, and we hope your next visit to the Smoky Mountains will be more enjoyable.

I asked to cancel the membership 1st day of September due to being charged for the membership twice in August and continued to be charged. I have several emails asking to cancel, I'm not sure how many times I could ask. I tried to call and could never speak with anyone. They continued to charge me for September and October and letting me know it was a 12 month commitment and if I cancel, I need to pay the $89.20 and they would not reimburse the $14.99 or take it off for September and October when I asked them multiple times to cancel it because to keep the commitment, is going to cost $179.88. I just want to ensure others are aware of the issues with this company. I do wish it would have been more clear abort the 12 month commitment, but I understand that they are going to add the 10% discount back as they are taking it away, but I have also them paid them $59.96 in fees since July. I am really upset about how they continued to charge my account after I asked them to cancel the last two months!!
Business Response:

Krystal, we're so sorry about the experience you have had, and we can completely understand your frustration. The membership we offer is designed to offer guests exclusive discounts and perks, and while we do our best to lay out the terms and conditions in multiple places on our website, we sincerely hate there was any misunderstanding on this. In addition, you've had difficulty in contacting an agent to discuss the options available to you, and we do apologize as this is not up to our standards. The membership in question has been cancelled as requested, and we are addressing this with upper management as it should not have taken this long to work out the details. Again, we do apologize for all the frustration this experience has caused you, and we hope you will be able to have a better experience when you visit the Smokies in the future.

Very disappointed with Cabins For You!! In fall of 2020, we stayed at a Cabins For You rental and had a great time; so much that on our way home, we rebooked the same cabin through Cabins For You for the fall of 2021. 2 1/2 weeks prior to our planned 2021 vacation (that we booked over 1 year ago), we received a notice that it was being cancelled!!! They offered us a choice of two much different cabins that are not closely comparable to the cabin that we rented!! The cabins that they offered as a replacement were less than 1/2 the size, did not contain the same number of bedrooms, not as nice, farther from the park entrance, in a more congested setting with less view and privacy! Worst part of all of this is that they are refusing any reduction in cost for these smaller and lesser cabins and refuse to consider upgrading to nicer cabins that are available!! Cabins For You are becoming very similar to Airbnb (which we have had terrible experiences with in the past) and we will consider other options next time. What happened from a year ago?? This is not customer service company but a money grab company and not only reflects directly on Cabins For You's Management but also on the greater Gatlinburg area and businesses!! The BBB and Gatlinburg City Council needs to clean up these businesses otherwise they will find this area downgraded by all!
Business Response:

Brian, we completely understand how disappointing this situation must be for you and your family, we know you were looking forward to another wonderful Smoky Mountain vacation at the cabin and we're so sorry it became unavailable. As soon as we were informed the cabin you had reserved was no longer going to be available on our program, we reached out with alternative options, and we hate you were initially dissatisfied with those cabins. We're glad we were able to find a suitable cabin for your dates, which was agreed to, and we do apologize for any and all inconvenience this situation has caused. We look forward to hosting you soon, and hope your visit is as pleasant as others you've had in the past.

Business Response:

Leslie, we completely understand how alarming this must have been for you and your family. We hate this happened, and we appreciate you letting us know right away so we could look into this further. As soon as we were informed of the situation, we immediately checked with our maintenance department to see if anyone had been dispatched to the cabin, and none of our personnel were sent out during your stay. We're glad that you reached out to the authorities regarding this situation, as this was the appropriate step to take. Again, we hate that this happened, but we're unfortunately unable to investigate this further. If you would like to discuss this with management, please reach out to our Guest Relations department, as we're happy to assist in any way that we can. We're so sorry that this situation affected your vacation, and we truly hope you will be able to enjoy time in the Smokies again soon.
