Ross M. Dec 27, 2023 04:53:26 AM
Summary: The cabin is well appointed with a great porch. We appreciated the hosts flexibility. Having our name on the board out front made it more relaxing coming in after dark and knowing we'd found the right house. Thank you!

Brett W. Sep 26, 2023 09:00:38 PM
Summary: This mountain cabin has been updated and was clean and well stocked on our arrival. Very quiet area and close to family that we were visiting. The driveway is a bit steep so the 4x4 came in handy, but it's the mountains so not unusual for the area. Internet service is a bit spotty and not 'high speed' but again - that's normal for the area. We will look to stay here again for our next visit to the area.
Katie B. Sep 15, 2023 09:53:19 PM

Allison R. Apr 11, 2023 03:40:02 AM
Summary: We not only loved the property and house (perfect outdoor space for our two dogs too), but the host was very kind and responsive. Place is super clean, well equipped and truly a 5-star place. I’d highly recommend this peaceful and cozy getaway.
