As experienced VRBO customers, we understand snagging a place that checks off all of the must haves/needs, last minute, is near impossible. We had to pivot from staying in our RV to a VRBO last minute (literally the day before our planned departure) so I'll start by saying we were happy to find Valley View! Its a great little cabin tucked away from the sights and sounds of the big city but still close enough to civilization that it isn't a hassel to run an errand or grab a bite to eat. The cabin itself is quaint, a 14x34 foot prefab cabin that would fit a couple or maybe family of four just fine, but was a tight fit for our family of five (two kids under 5 and a pre-teen). We found the communication and check-in to be hassle free, which was much appreciated after a late start and a three hour drive with three kids. The cabin wasn't overly clean; we noticed dust on fan blades and door frames and the living area rug appeared to have been swept but perhaps not vacuumed, as there were small pieces of random debris stuck in the pile. The kitchen appeared well appointed, though we ate most of our meals on the go. Seating and space was very limited in the living area. A sleeper sofa/futon would probably have offered a better solution to seating, than the twin bed, without taking away a bedding option. The beds themselves were awfully firm and extremely squeaky, so much so, we would wake each other up rolling over or getting in/out of bed. I'd put new beds/mattresses in the budget for this year! Aside from the discomfort of the beds (the kids even complained), heating and cooling was a major issue. It was warm during the day so we utilized the bedroom ceiling fans which kept us comfortable but by evening when the temperature dropped we never could regulate the heat. The two Mitsubishi wall units seemed to compete with one another, with only one working at a time, so we had to alternate heating the master room vs the living area. We read the manual, but saw no work around or improvement. There was no mechanism to heat the second bedroom other than an electrical space heater, in a room with two windows, one of which had a window AC unit so it was very drafty. Had we known the cabin didn't have central heat/air we would've packed differently and brought some reinforcements from home. We made do but certainly weren't comfortable. All in all, with a few easy fixes this little cabin could be top notch!!
