i find it entirely rude to destroy someone elses home/business. hearing someone burned a hole in your table, and drawing on the kids toys, hearing something is broken every time you go visit, its so ridiculous. i wish people would have more respect for something that is not theirs. you put so much time, effort and hard work into that cabin, it should be respected. im sorry that you had to deal with someone who seems to be very hard to please. a minor inconvenience shouldnt lead to an overall nasty review. i havent stayed at your cabin ( although id love to ) but i can just tell that it is VERY MUCH five star worthy. 💙
😊👍
It's our family dream to stay at Sam and Nia's cabin.
100% agree with ALL of this!
He said the burn hole was in the rug under the table not the table, but it does seem like every time they go back something else has been broken. I remember in one video someone had broken the decorative tile on the wood burning stove and I think I remember in another video that someone had messed up the sliding door going out onto the deck. It’s such a shame, I know accidents happen but it just seems like people don’t have respect for other peoples property. I totally get Sams frustration.
the way Sam said the name in ALL SERIOUSNESS 🤣😅
Her name is de-zire-re, LOL That cracked me up! I would not let that review get to you. Look how many people have stayed there and this is the 1st complaint, but you did everything you could to try and make her happy. There are people out there that will never be pleased! I love your family! God Bless!
😊👍
I burst out laughing at Desiree 😂😂
That part was hilarious 😂
Cracked me up 😂 😂
Omg, I played Sam saying “Desire-ee” over and over and just laughed at him and Nia laughing. Priceless LOL
Omg I am cracking up 😂 !! Sam said the name sooo confident too 😂😂 its okay guys, don’t let one negative review effect y’all. The cabin is beautiful and Sam did put ALOT of work into it! I still remember those vlogs and I enjoyed them . Have a safe and fun trip ❤️
Why on earth would you consider a mixer a basic appliance? I know I'm sure as heck not going to spend all my time baking in the kitchen when I'm on vacation!
I’ve worked in hotels and at Airbnb resorts for the past 10 years. If one person won’t pay full price, someone else will. Don’t let it get to you. You can’t please every person. The good thing is that she let you know what is wrong so you can fix those issues! Love you guys! Stay positive!
The bad review led to the absolutely funniest part of Sam messing up the name… I’m sorry but that was hilarious Sam..😂😂😂😂
Sam please don't worry about what people say about your cabin. You put your heart and soul into that cabin. Be proud of it. Look at all the people that love your spot.
😊👍

😂😂😂you guys crack me up! That last part had me like 🤣
DONOT LET ONE BAD REVIEW SET YOU BACK REMEBER WHAT YOU ALWAYS SAY GOD PUTS THINGS IN OUR PATH FOR US TO LEARN BY THEM. GOD HELPED YOU BUILD THAT CABIN AND IT IS EXCELENT
Baby Josie walking around is so stinking adorable 😍. Love u guys may God always bless you. ♥️
Nia, you got that right. I am cracking up.
I THOUGHT IT WAS FUNNY TOO. I KNOW YOU CAN'T WIN THEM ALL YOU HAVE 99% OF GOOD REVIEWS AND 1% NEGATIVE REVIEW NOT TO WORRY THAT CABIN IS GORGEOUS YOU ALL DID A MARVELOUS JOB GETTING IT READY FOR PEOPLE TO RENT.
😊👍
Sometimes you need someone to just help you, pick up those little details you to change. Use it is possible to change and make I better. Doesn’t mean it’s not amazing, it helps make it even better.
Don’t let 1 persons comment get you down! You guys take such good care of your place and some people will find anything to complain about….so chances are you really don’t want that person back anyways!
Love seeing you back at the cabin. The cabin vlogs are so cozy.
It's so good you can laugh about it....dont take it too seriously...she probably is a complainer!!😂😂😂
So her review was valid then? You literally confirmed everything she said
It's been a long time since I've watched your vlog. Abram has the cutest personality! So kind, considerate, and funny. Good jobs guys... He has an amazing personality ❤️
It didn’t seem too negative but i can understand how it must be frustrating because you tried everything to accommodate her when she addressed you with every problem. Some people expect things to be perfect while we’re all human trying our best!
😊👍
Your getting rain, we are in California and a bad drought .gee forgot what rain looks like. 110 today. Love all of you.
aww.. well there is always one person who is not happy.. I wish I could stay at your lovely cabin.. Love you and your family.. been watching you guys from the very beginning.. y'all the cabin is gorgeous..I want to go Squatchin' lol
I have stayed in in short term rentals years ago I think this is we’re I saw this…. Or it could be my idea who knows but make a kitchen inventory sheet and tape it on the inside of pantry door. That way a guess could see it and know what you should have when looking. So if they can’t find it then they can let you know. Also good reference for y’all to look over when visiting to make sure everything is there. Make sure it list the number of spoons, forks, ….. and on your private listing what type of knifes you left. Also take pictures of each cabinet and kitchen draws when you leave.
You’ll never be able to make everyone happy. A negative review was bound to happen eventually. At least you tried to be helpful to the guest and are trying to fix any “issues” she had.
As someone who works in a hotel, there are going to be people who you can't please. Quite often we will have people who complain about the smallest things and really they're looking to be miserable despite everyone trying their best to make their stay as warm and inviting as possible. Perhaps it might be better for those people to remove themselves from the situation where they feel they can't be happy; I know for us we're not offended if they choose to and we're more concerned that they enjoy their trip than if we lose out on a certain amount of profit and we would still try to help them find the best option for them if we're able to. At the end of the day though, some people don't want to remove themselves from those situations that make them unhappy and would prefer to vent towards the people who didn't live up to their expectations. I wouldn't take it personally, it's clearly something on them, not you guys and you did the best you could in spite of it.
LOL! I am one of the ladies that is laughing! Desiree! LOL! Blass you, Sam! Love you all!
Sam you are too funny😂I hope you guys have a good weekend!!
I think that's a fair review if things needed addressing. I've been thinking about booking it with y'all and it didn't deter me.
Sam don’t let one disgruntled guest bother you. This lady probably had other things going on that cause her anxiety. Your place is great and you do a great job. God bless you guys.
I just love your family. Your energy. Your candidness about how you feel about things. Just refreshing to see families on CZcams that aren’t showman, perfect, no flaws, that fakery that seems just too amazing to be true. I know you have all been blessed in a lot of areas, but the struggles you have are so relatable. Bless you all.
Hi sam! The more customers you serve, the more 'antique ones' you will meet. Even though you have given the very best of you, but some people just outpouring troubles. Anyway, just remember the good ones and keep improving and serving the best you can. Cheer up!
I love cabins vlogs so much!
Nia's right, I was definitely cracking up when Sam said the name like that lol. I do agree that the review was unfair. And even if everything it said had been true, the fact that you paid someone to personally deliver a pack of knives to the cabin was probably more than most Airbnb owners would do. It sounds like you genuinely tried to handle the situation as best as you could, so don't get discouraged if your efforts go unappreciated. No Airbnb is flawless but your cabin seems pretty great! God bless your family ❤ keep shining His light and sharing the Truth!
Her name is Dez-y-ree 😂😂😂 laughed so hard
Remember when God asked Abraham to take his son he finally got after a hundred years to take him to a mountain and sacrifice him. In the end Abraham did what God said and started to sacrifice him no matter how much Abraham loved him he did what God said. Then God stopped him just before he sacrificed him and told him not to do it. God told him he was just testing him to see if he would do what he said. Sometimes we have things we really love and God tests us to see if we love them more than we do him. I don't know maybe he is testing you with your cabin.
You should totally teach baby Josie to say..”you got it dude! 😁👍🏽
oh my goodness, I've not watched your vlogs in so long. The kids have grown so much! As for the bad review, don't sweat it because you won't be able to 100 percent please/make totally happy.
Have you gone to the peach place for ice cream this summer??
Sam thank you for the name mix up. That was a great laugh. You work hard and get to own that beautiful place. Don't worry about anything else.
Happy 34th birthday Nia Radar, I hope you have fun on your special day. You are an amazing mother of four, Symphony 12 Abram 9 Juliet 6 and Josie a year old. I really admire everything you do to make them and Sam really happy, even though the kids fight every now and then as well as argue you can keep your cool and handle it with no problem at all. I have been wanting to meet you for 10 years now, please come to my house so I can meet my favorite CZcams family
Pretty sure Nia is older than 24...that would mean she had Symphony at age 12, lol.
@@candismith4080 I meant 34 but I was talking to my boyfriend, I fixed it
@@maddie3am801 I was just joshin with ya, I knew it was a typo but couldn't help myself.
@@candismith4080 Ohhh ok
Bummer on the negative review. You go way above and beyond. Don’t worry too much about it Sam! Love you guys!
I died at what Sam thought was her name😂😂😂😂😂😂
I think a lot of people would see through a complaint like that. I know if I read that I wouldn't think too much about it. I just recently made my first trip to Broken Bow and Hochatown. Crazy that it took me until I was 45 when I grew up in a town only 45 minutes away. I called my parents up and got on to them for never taking me there growing up. Cute area though. Plan on going back.
I love your videos
Bad reviews are frustrating, especially when exaggerated. We have a small business, so I get that. I will say though, even when I'm only staying somewhere for a couple nights, I would like to have access to a broom and a mop (at least a swiffer wet jet) to clean up basic messes after children. As well as a vacuum if there is a lot of carpet/rugs.
You guy’s are good people and one semi bad review is going to happen. That cabin is amazing! And don’t let it bring y’all down. You did such a wonderful job! I remember watching you from start to finish Sam! I was in Utter shock on how much you changed that place! You tried to accommodate her but obviously it wasn’t enough for her and some people are just like that. If it were me I would have let you know about the doors that weren’t working properly so you could get them fixed for one. Two so you didn’t think it was me that had messed them up. I wouldn’t have giving you a semi bad review based of the little things because overall it was a great experience and stay. Keep your heads up and don’t let it get to you! Y’all are wonderful and I am so happy to see you guy’s keep growing every time y’all post! I have been watching your family from the beginning of your CZcams channel! 💜🙏🏻
Desir Y 😂😂sam is funny Great videos i need to catch up on them 🙂there so nice to watch on any season 😊
what a beautiful family.. We live in VA and am tring to talk my Husband in booking your cabin so far not working cause its so far of a drive lol. Maybe one day.. Love your videos..
EDIT: Your response was good. And there is NOT one negative thing said about your cabin anywhere else.
Trust me I have stayed in some dumps. And they've lacked a LOT. And usually you're on your own. Things can happen where minor things are not perfect. But you addressed them swiftly. She should have mentioned all you did to accommodate her requests. You can't please everyone. Address it in the description if needed. That you will be happy to serve their needs. Its a great cabin. People are stressed, need a vacation and have extremely high expectations.
That’s cool u can that clear up
Omg i rewatched that part so many time😂😂😂😂 de-sie-ry
Y’all are the best CZcamsrs in the world I bet you won’t comment on this
What is yalls air bnb listing either house name or host were going to be looking at broken bow next summer
Tree roots cause foundation problems cause roots like side walk
Lol omgosh the way Sam pronounced the reviewers name 🤣! Your cabin is beautiful. I'm sure Desire eee was just being a Karen 😀😆.
Think they were probably covering themselves for all the damage they had caused. The dolls house drawn on the burnt whole the thing your son said he found chopped in half. Some people just twist things around incase of any come back for when their wrongs are found and they have to pay or some people just look for things in hope you will give them a refund. I think it sounds like you are lucky they are not wanting to return and with the work they have left for you I think they would be very very lucky if you even let them back. They should of left a letter of apology not a poor review. Stay positive don't let people ruin what brings you and everyone else that stays there joy 😉
Desire ---- eeee oh my gosh this was sooooo funny. You are the best guys sorry for your bad review, you don't deserve it. Any issues we have had on air bnb we have allowed the owners to rectify and never mentioned in a review. It's unnecessary and passive aggressive. Xxx
I love your guys video
can i ask how far away from ur home is broken bow becayse we just had a property given to us 8 hrs away and weve been up there one and have to go again to mow but its just so far away. i
It's a 3h drive between the Rader home and Wild Symphony.
From the review you read it sounds like maybe this was from an older age person , but at least she gave you some credit 😅 just a few minor details . Stay positive 🎉
Oh bummer on the negative review. Can't make everyone happy I guess. We rented a 5 bedroom Airbnb in TN over the summer. 5 adults and 3 children. There were only 4 forks and 4 spoons, lol. Thought it was a little nuts assuming who would rent a big house like that for only 4 people. Had to take turns eating breakfast (we ate the other meals out). Oh well, we didn't write it in the review but did give it as a suggestion to the owner. Beautiful cabin btw.
Don’t let the one review get you down Sam. I know it’s easier said than done, but that lady clearly is one that tries to find anything wrong in any situation. The silverware situation happens at A LOT OF Airbnb places. She clearly is making smaller things a bigger deal than they need to be.
Use this as a learning tool. Can you respond to her comment? If so tell her you are so sorry for things that were missing and you to note and came to replace all missing silverware. Then add the two door in question have been fixed. Thank her for letting you know. With every negative thing add a positive but make sure it all stays positive and not defensive. Other future rentals will pick up on it. If I was looking for a rental and saw her comment and then say a positive response and would then consider it not a issues anymore on keep looking. Good luck! Remember all negative things in life is something to turn into a positive.
Yes Sam you are beyond a hard worker and so is Nia. And the kids. Such an awesome family 👪 ❤
Unfortunately some people will nit pick anything. That's super frustrating.
To me, that review wasn't negative at all. If I own a Airbnb and customers told me what I need for it I would really appreciate it and get the items.
I would live there full time wow , beautiful
Same! 😊👍
Abram is a great handyman. A cute one at that. Sam you can please some of the people some of the time but not all the people all the time. If you have missing silverware it probably walked out the door. Some people just want to be a grouch. If the Lord came down from heaven they would find something wrong with him and we know he's perfect. They would argue the devil is a groundhog. Love you guys. Don't let it bother you because that's Satan trying to get to you. 🙏
😊👍
It’s so easy when multiple people come through and stay trying to keep up with who’s taken or broken what and when, sounds like all of that was just her personal error
LITERALLY ALL the complaints she had wrote, to me anyways, its not truely a necessity per say. It's stuff she could have lived without for a week. If it was months thats different but a week. She must be high maintenance or just a complainer maybe. The front door sure, thats a safety thing, but as Nia said, bottom locked still. Everything else, like oh my gosh. But on a good note, atleast she did have good reviews too so I give her that.
Some people are never happy with anything. Sounds like she went around looking for all the negative she could find. I mean I could see knocking off 1 or 2 stars but still keeping it mostly positive. Because nothing sounded really like very serious issues at all. People will see all the positive reviews and then just see the one and realize after reading it they were one of those kind of people.
Sam , you been on social media long enough to know that there will be negativity no matter what.
I feel like out of 140 something reviews only one somewhat negative take it for what it is some people can never be please no matter what you do and some will always point out the “bad” stuff even if the good outweighs the bad you could have probably gone up there yourself to fix everything and it still would not be enough. Also some people like to complain because they know there is a chance they could get a discount!
Negitive comments helps us grow - .... I'm proof of that, though it's hurt immensely at first - because it's like a personal gut punch to the abdomen - .... but once us ( humans ) realize and notice what it's meant to do, trust me - it's gonna become a buffer towards you. Guys, that individual sounds like a lazy person, so what if there wasn't no mixer as was stated, couldn't ( whatever ) was being done, be prepared by hand?, oh gosh man - I mean, sure you pay for an experience - ... and I'm sure it was felt. I'm a subscriber, and also a person who knows a little manual labour won't kill. Don't even take that personally, that's just one negitive review - ... and I'm certain it came from those who probably doesn't even know what dust looks like?. You worked hard on " WILD SYMPHONY ", we watched you cut hugh trees, craft and design each and every post etc - that's incredibly tough work. Could've that ungrateful person did what was done?, NO!!! - ... so, they ( whoever ) should've just take the time to admire and be thankful instead of being a complaining cry baby :(., but like I said, negitive comments helps us grow. FOOLS - ... and writing, they won't be re-booking ( like that supposed to make you feel some type of way ) 😁. I'm not even an air bnb booker, and I'm getting a camping vbyz from it ( glamping ), ... with a nice artistic home feeling. SMH.
... anyway, you guys are the best, don't let that get you down, keep you heads held high, and be blessed
Lovely Blessed Family 🥰
Desiarie 🤔🤣 there's a new name for someone expecting , I'm sure you can play around with the spelling .😉
Some people have exacting standards that can never be fully met. She more than likely spent the entire trip looking for problems and fuming about what she considered to be unforgivable faults in the cabin. People like that can never be pleased and will always complain no matter how hard you try to please them. I think the cabin is amazing and having watched all the time spent building it into what It is today, I appreciate how wonderful it is even more! If I lived in Texas, I would be honored to stay there!
Your awsome
Sam ignore that review! Your cabin is beautiful! Those of us who watched you build it know how much hard work and heart you put into it. Honestly her review sounds like one where she spent too much money for vacation and is now having buyer’s remorse and just hoping you’ll give her some of her money back. She’s not worth a second thought.
Don't react too strongly to her (I think you have) . It's not such a negative review. She acknowledges you ordering the cutlery. She mostly feels like not going there again. Well, that may be. Such reviews happen.
Desirey lol
Sam and Nia I love when you guys go to broken bow I would give anything to be able to go there that is an amazing cabin I watched you when you were building it the nerve that that Desiree had to leave a comment like that she obviously is a snob and doesn't appreciate beautiful handwork and hard work she must have gotten everything handed to her and a silver spoon in her mouth I'm so sorry you got that it was not fair at all to you I hate when people exaggerate you guys are wonderful people and that cabin is gorgeous think about it you've been renting it out for how long now and it's your first bad review that's going to tell you something
I know how upsetting it must be to have your rating record messed up by a seemingly nit-picking customer. But I'm sure most Airbnb cabins (or any Airbnb houses) that have been in business a long time, get their share of not-always-great reviews. I had a store on Amazon for a few years and I was overly concerned when there was a couple of non perfect star ratings, as if it would destroy my business! The sellers who do the most sells, have the most 1 or 2 star ratings. And yet in the end, people use their own judgement. Reviews aren't always the best reliability in making a purchase. Especially when the good reviews outweigh the bad by far. The review you read, sounded as if the customer was satisfied on big things, just picked on matters that most customers wouldn't even have given a care . Look at it this way, many people don't trust it when there's ONLY perfect reviews!
This woman probably complains everywhere she goes
😊👍
Sounds like she just wanted to complain some people are never happy
She said it was clean that's what I look for 👍 For so called not have the odd thing jeeez, I'd just get on with it and let ya know, they're just little things, why do that when they've had a nice fun time, just nit picking. If that's all I had to moan about I'd be one happy woman. Some PEOPLE just have air EEEEEVRY thing ppppffffttt. Get a GRIP woman, get a GRIP.
Sounds like she wanted a discount...I'm sure a stay that long was pricy and she went through...nic picking....do t let it discourage you...it's a beautiful cabin❤️🙏
I went back an played desire --ree(Desiree)... y'all are so fun...that was a lol😂...❤️🥰
She actually did get a discount at booking.
👍❣❣❤❣❣👍
