GBLIES LIES, LIES AND MORE LIES! I rented a cabin in January 2022, for our trip in June 2022. When speaking with Rhonda, I asked that if we needed to cancel, what would the charge be? She said it would be what I paid for the insurance $424.77 and an $80 processing fee, that would be all. Unfortunately because of medical reasons, we had to cancel and a lot more money was deducted!! Mind you, we are in Feb 2022 and the reservation was not until June 2022!! DON'T BELIEVE A WORD THEY SAY!

GBI would never ever again book a cabin … I would never ever again book a cabin with them! Last year we booked a cabin with them. They sold the cabin with the intention of placing is in another cabin. Fortunately our relatives got there a day early, went to the address of the cabin we rented and met the new owners eating breakfast! They told us the house was sold a year ago!!! Well we confronted colonial properties and they called the police on us to be removed from their office! The police suggested we file a report and it would be filed with BBB. Which we did. But you are taking a risk with your money and your accommodations when you book with them. There are plenty of other very nice legitimate renal companies in the area. I suggest using one of them!!

GBThe reviews on there website appear to be written by staff and would not let me leave an honest review. Colonial Properties were NOT accommodating, the cabin was unoccupied the week before and after our stay, they made us sit in the driveway for 45 min and call them back 3 times before they would put in the code to unlock the door. We stayed at the “Overlook” They failed to tell us we would be overlooking the tops of trees that blocked our views of the majestic mountains we traveled to see, the windows are also old and dirty, we tried to clean them and the seals are broken and moisture was trapped inside ☹ The cabin was to sleep 12. There was only 6 forks, 7 spoons and 8 butter knives. (they did bring 4 of each, which was still inadequate) The bedspreads on the beds were old, OLD and warn out, there were not enough blankets and Colonial told us we had to buy our own, they would not supply them. The couches were kinda gross, we put the sheets on them to sit on. The chairs were mismatched and 1 broken. There was black mold in 2 of the bathrooms, 1 bed was broken, 1 tv was broken. We made a trip to Colonial Properties and spoke to the manager about our long list of things that should have been cleaned, repaired, disclosed, as well as proper etiquette. We invited her to come to see, she said she would get back to us and never did. PITYFUL! There are multiple beautiful cabins with reputable realtors, I strongly suggest you save yourselves trouble and go to one of them and steer clear of Colonial Properties Cabin and Resort Rentals AND The Overlook Cabin

GBOur family rented the Keaton's Firefly… Our family rented the Keaton's Firefly Meadow cabin. We were so excited when looking at the photos and looking forward to our weeks vacation Unfortunately, the pictures are a lot better than the reality. The place is run down. The place was not clean. We had to wash dishes that were in the cabinets supposedly clean. Doors on the kitchen cabinets were ready to fall off. In the bedroom, one of our towels had a crusty stain or had not been washed. There was mold on the bathroom floor. Inside the bathroom cabinet there was drier toothpaste or shaving cream. My nephew found a used bloody bandage stuck to the underside of his blanket. I could go on and on. Do yourself a favor and find a reputable company to rent from.

GBNightmare of dirt After we got there, we found the cabin not cleaned, dirty bed linens, dirty bath towels, towels all over the floor, bathroom was uncleaned. When we called the management, Josh, was unapologetic, rude, claimed they had 24 hours to fix the problem per the rental agreement. I reviewed the contract, that was a lie, when I told him that, he became increasingly rude. We waited over 3 hours for the cleaning crew, horrible service all the way around. Will never stay here again.
