Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful cabin with my family. It was more than we all expected and just a great kid friendly cabin. Thanks so much and I hope we can come back soon.

A Palace

Everything was as described. Our 4 year old was able to keep herself occupied the whole time we were there both inside and outside! The upstairs had kids books, toys, stuffed animals and a dart board. She would refer to the cabin as the palace! Far enough out to be apart of nature but still close to town. We will be back again! Thanks Rosie and Curtis

WE DON'T WANT TO LEAVE...

All we can say is "no one wanted to leave this Peace of Heaven" or the mountains. The cabin is awesome with all you could need provided. Where we live you could not even imagine not having air conditioning in July but that was never even missed. The cabin was very comfortable and roomy for the 8 of us (our 4 grandkids loved the loft and so did we)! There wasn't an inch of the acreage that they did not cover and the chipmunks provided much entertainment. We went white water rafting, horseback riding, fly-fishing, hiked, shopped, jeep toured, read and RELAXED. All activities were within an easy drive. Oh yes, can't forget the campfire and smores! AND... the kids played on the wagon one day and it was everything from a Wild West Wagon to a Spaceship (imaginations at work)!Our youngest grandson enjoyed the tree swing. We loved Red River. Sunsets are beautiful from the front porch and we got some really nice photos. From the front bedroom I watched a lightening storm late one night. Awesome to drift off to sleep with... the smell of rain and cool breezes drifting through the windows. This trip was about relaxation, family and making memories. Rosie and Curtis are the nicest people. They answered our questions and even gave us a call upon arrival to be sure all was well. Thanks Rosie and Curtis for sharing your lovely cabin in the mountains. We definately made MEMORIES. I must share this funny..we had just unpacked when there was a knock at the door and the lady said "YOU ARE IN OUR CABIN". Fortunately I had just talked with Rosie and knew that we were in the right house. We called Rosie and she was able to clear up the confusion, the people from Ohio were actually in the cabin down the hill from our cabin. You can only imagine the look on each of our faces at the lady's declaration. Thanks again for a wonderful stay. We had a blast! Winter MUST be AWESOME as well.

We arrived in early February and the cabin was warm and wonderful. It is great being a kid and playing in the snow. I'm 50 years old and enjoyed this cabin like a 10 year old on Christmas Morning. Everything was clean and the kitchen is perfect if you love to cook. Rosie and Curtis checked in with us to make sure we made it ( it snowed a bunch). The drive was plowed and the caretaker was a call away if we needed anything. This Cabin is perfection. PS. I am writing this review in the hottest part of July. The reason it took me so long is I forgot to write it when we got home and now I was checking availability. Talk to you soon Rosie and Curtis!! We are coming back.

This place is incredible! From the moment we arrived we were right at home. The kids had a blast with plenty to do inside and out. We all enjoyed bike rides to the wonderful winery just down the road, jeeping and hiking trails nearby, horseback riding, and summer activities at the ski area. When there was nothing going on we sat outside and listened to the hummingbirds or down by the campfire making smores. The home is beautiful, cozy and is equiped with absolutely evertything you could need during your stay. Oh and not to mention the owners Rosie and Curtis are the best of host. Only downside was having to leave...We plan on returning again!

The boys, 11,5 and 2 loved the cabin. We did too! Very clean. Angel Fire is the best place to stay after touring the other cities on the enchanted circle. Lots to do in the summer. If your kids need some space to use thier imaginations, this is the place. They made tree forts, gathered treasures (rocks and sticks) and played outside almost the whole time. THeyalso love the big bathtub! The Priddy's were so nice and were not "hard sell" like most of the other owners I talked to.

The description and photographs do not even begin to provide the proper justification this property warrants. To begin with, prior to our stay Rosie was a forthcoming wealth of knowledge. She even provided various mileage points in efforts to help me train for a marathon during my stay! Then, there is the view. Completely breathtaking. Throughout the stay I was continually taken back by this view, finding myself in awe of God's creation. Sleds (provided by the owners) and the hill below provided endless hours of entertainment for our children as did the ski slopes only five minutes away. The cabin was a true log cabin in the mountains experience. The big fireplace, abundance of windows and very cozy feel was wonderful. However, the open layout allowed my family the opportunity for togetherness yet was large enough that we never felt crowded. Being surrounded by my family at all times, even when in the loft area, was truly priceless. I soaked in every moment of this closeness. Peace of Heaven was perfect for our family. Thank you Rosie and Curtis for allowing God to blanket us in blessings through the use of your cabin. We anxiously look forward to our next stay. A most grateful Texas family

We lost our son, Justin "JT" Taylor to a motocross accident in June 2007. We were lost on how to handle the first holiday season without him. By the grace of God and some angels above, your family came into our lives to give us a "Peace of Heaven" to go to for Christmas. How perfect of a name is that for us? Your family was over accomodating for us in every way, and your cabin was truly a Peace of Heaven. It was a trip we will never forget where our whole family could stay in the cabin together, be close to the slopes where we skiied every day, and then gathered around the "remote controlled" fireplace (!!) in the evenings. The place was absolutely gorgeous, serene, and being up in the mountains got me "closer to Heaven and to JT"...I cannot thank you enough for your hospitality and thoughtfulness, over and beyond what I ever expected. In JT's memory, riding #97 and saying "Just Follow Me Over"... May God Bless You, Karen, Matt, Cody Taylor and my family

Owner response:When we purchased the land that the cabin sits on, we dedicated it to the Lord and His work! Little did we know or understand what tremendous things He would accomplish with it! So many have expressed that they have found peace and a sense of healing while visiting! We feel so priviledged that He uses it as a channel for His "Peace of Heaven". It is such a great blessing to share it! Thank you Karen for sharing your story with others! May you continue to feel God's love and His children's prayers for you and your family! May God bless you!

This was one of the most beautiful Cabins I have stayed in. I have been vacationing in the Rockies for 32years and this was absolutely a magnificent setting. I will surely stay again, with my grandchildren. Thank you so much for sharing your home.

Rosie, I received you vm, but wanted to personally thank you for all you've done for Karen and her family. They are so excited about staying at A "Peace" of Heaven during Christmas. Isn't it amazing how God answers our prayers.

What an awesome and inspiring place! We're ready to see it with SNOW! My kids (8 & 10) were so ecstatic that they refused to leave the property the next day for the grocery store. My daughter "would live here if she could!" My uncle said it was not a cabin, but a CHATEAU, and much grander than the website depicts. Thank you dear cousins for a beautiful, restful, BLESSED time in your home away from home. Love you!

Owner response:Thank you for such a nice response, cuz! So glad that you had a great time!

What a beautiful retreat from the hussle of this world and the heat. We thoroughly enjoyed the beauty of not only the mountains, but the cabin. I love all of the detail work in the cabin. It is truly a blessing, thank you Rosie and Curtis for sharing it with us.

Owner response:Thank you Tim and Kim for the pleasure it has given us to share with you!

Our family enjoyed spending time with friends at the Priddy's cozy and quaint cabin in the woods. It was everything Rosie said it was, and more! Clean, comfortable, and unique, along with a gorgeous view make this truly a "Peace of Heaven".

My family stayed in the Peace of Heaven cabin last week. We had a wonderful time. The cabin is very pretty and has great views. The owners should take great pride in what they have built. It is close to Angel Fire, but in the country on 2 acres so there is a lot of privacy.

Owner response:Thank you Carolyn and family for the great comments! You have no idea what great joy it brings to us, to share this "Peace of Heaven" with you and others. Thank you for renting from us! Hope to see you again! God Bless!
