The house was perfect for us. The view, the size, the proximity to downtown Gatlinburg were great! However a couple hours before we arrived, I received a text letting me know there was a problem with the water pressure. Sure enough, water would barely come out of the sinks, showers barely worked, and doing laundry was impossible. Then the pool, one of the main reasons we rented this particular house, started losing water... significant amounts. It was below the filter to where the top stair going in was dry. Called their maintenance help line to let them know- and NO RESPONSE. None. We've been home for days now and they still have not reached out. I've been renting from elk springs for years and this is the first time things have been somewhat poor. Hopefully their lack of response didn't destroy the motor for the filter- but from a customer service standpoint, we pay a lot of money to have these things work. Things happen, things break- but probably a bad idea to surprise your guest with these things then make no attempt to fix them or communicate with you. Lastly, house was clean, but there was goldfish and chips protruding from underneath the chairs in the theatre room. Not the end of the world but noteworthy. Overall, if this house was in good repair- it would have been perfect.
