Complete and accurate details about checking in, and other information. Much better than most Airbnb's.

Lack of control with Smart Rates
May 16, 2024

Evolve smart rate system allowed our place to be booked for just slightly over half price for Memorial weekend. Yes, the window was closing, however some sort of involvement on my side would have been helpful.

Kindness Matters
June 24, 2024

I had a hiccup with my reservation, my fault as I was looking at a friends place that was staying in same city. The person I talked to on the phone, even though I was frustrated because I was at the wrong place and didn't know what to do, was patient and kind. I eventually figured out my mistake and on we went to a wonderful VRBO!

Easy booking, clear instructions
July 4, 2024

The entire process was easy and quick. Communication with our host was clear and simple. There were no issues, so I can't speak to issue resolution, but I suspect it would've been similar.

Changing Rates
June 14, 2024
Updated review

I needed to make a change to the cleaning rates for my vacation rental property because Evolve takes a 10% commission from the cleaning fee as well as the pet fee. Because of that I have been paying that extra money to pay my cleaning fees. The process with the Evolve staff to accomplish that was very easy. She was very helpful.

Date of experience: June 4, 2024

I'm mostly very satisfied with my experience with Evolve. The only issue has been with one staff member. We just don't seem well suited to work together. I requested to not work with her anymore, but she is still my contact person. I have just started having my cottage booked, but thus far the experience has been a very positive one, with the one exception. I would certainly recommend Evolve to anyone interested the service you provide.

Exceeded expectations
June 13, 2024

Often photos and an owners description of their property lie. In this case, the truth be told, the truth was told. In fact, the property exceeded our expectations. Very clean. Very comfortable. Very complete. Very right.

Protection for owners
May 16, 2024

We owners don't have recourse when guest comes and steal or destroy our properties. We can't get the reimbursement for the cost of replacement of it's less than a certain value and the cost to call for service people to come in and repair which is not fair. There should be incidental charges like when these guest check into a hotel.

Hi Stewart - thank you for your review. We're sorry to hear this has been your experience! As you mentioned, items that cost less than $50 are not covered by this program as this is seen as the typical cost of business in the industry and this coverage is meant to protect owners against the larger, unexpected damages that interfere with the functionality of the property and it's amenities, and further impact the experience of future guests. Additionally, we'd like to provide clarification that repair and specialized services are eligible for coverage with the proper documentation. Here is a link to our help center article that further details this coverage: https://help.evolve.com/s/article/risk-protection

We apologize for any misunderstanding regarding this policy and hope that this information is helpful. Please feel free to reach out to our team at 877.818.1014 or via your owner portal with any additional questions.

Do Not rent if you are female
July 13, 2024

The neighbor is a skitso and harassed us to the point he came in. As we were only females staying there, we did not feel comfortable staying the second night after showing us he had a key, so we left after the first night. The host refused to refund for the second night saying "he's harmless". Didn't feel like risking being a statistic

Request for Consideration
June 13, 2024

We have two listing with Evolve and love Evolve. My son reserved a surprise (Conf #*******) to honor my 70th birthday and I requested consideration for a discount for that rental. I had a 10% discount and waiver for guest service fee, that expired on 5/30. I was hoping to use it, since I was unaware of the plan to book! The request was denied. I am just very disappointed, We are faithful owners, and value Evolve. I hoped we would be as valued. Unfortunately, NOT.

It was odd to book through VRBO but then be forced to deal with Evolve. I booked through VRBO so I could work with their management but was not able to.

Quiet Retreat
April 27, 2024

This place was perfect for our family of four. The outdoor area is clean and well maintained. The marked walking trails through the woods are so nice. The pond and backyard were amazing. We loved having the big fire pit area for nighttime fun! The cabin was clean and had everything we needed. We are already planning to visit this place again during the winter when the kids get a break from school. Wal-mart and fast food 15 mins away. Cabin easy to find. Private and peaceful! 10/10 BEST CABIN we've stayed in!
