Worst experience with a rental.
Wish I would have seen this site for reviews before booking but thought I could trust Marriott Home & Villas to certify companys and their proprties. 6 month later still no manger ever called to address the issues or offer compensation for false advertising and a ruined trip. Main issues: - Arrive and lock box doesn't work to let us in with provided code. Discover after digging through emails to find another code and that works - Dirty sheets in the bedroom with dirt in them. - Fans covered in inch plus layer of dust build up - Door of Downstair bed room to the outside doesnt fully work and step has damaged tile so have to be extra careful trying to go in and out. - No wifi as stated. Not big deal except the landline has no dial tone and their is no cell service. Have to go out in a thunderstorm to try and find somewhere to call to get fixed so if an emergency we can call out. - No working hot tub. Technically there is one which was part of why we booked but didnt work. Never fixed so could not use it. - Low water pressure and no hot water when tried to wash dishes. - Go to take a shower and same problem. Almost no pressure and ice water. Call about issue... Kept being told fixed but not...so after 3 days of almost no water and us having to push for hot water heater to be checked they realize the hot water heater was full of sediment. by that point we are having to leave early as it wasnt safe to clean my 3 year old because of water temp being so cold and such low pressure. They didnt fix the day on lake so we all had to sleep with lake water on us so left to get cleaned. When called to say we had to leave early and wanted a manager to call the employee was rude, acted annoyed we dare leave early, no offer of compensation for them ruining a birthday trip and having us stay in such terrible conditions. Manager never called... No success getting to someone so having to work through the Marriott side instead.

Thanks for your review, Amie. We’re terribly sorry about your less-than-ideal stay with us eight months ago. Our team was aware of the issues you had with the WiFi, hot water, as well as the hot tub not working properly, which we addressed during your stay. We haven’t received any calls from you since your visit, so we’re assuming that you’ve been speaking to Marriott about this. Again, we’re very sorry about the problems you encountered during your stay with us in the Smoky Mountains, and we would like the opportunity to provide you with a better experience the next time you’re in the area. Update: 4/29/21- We're pleased that we were able to come to a resolution with you on this issue.
