My family and I had a wonderful time at this cabin. From the moment we walked in, it felt like home. The owner has done an excellent job of making sure it is comfortable and supplied with a lot of things to occupy your time. We spent time watching DVDs and playing games and took advantage of the dart board and ping pong table upstairs. We highly recommend this cabin.

We had a great time during our weekend stay at the cabin. The cabin has anything and everything you would need. The cabin's three levels provided plenty of room. The pond was great for swimming and for the little ones to fish. Garren was awesome during the whole process.

I cant say enough about this cabin. I was a little gun shy at first because we have had a bad expierence long ago with a "cabin" we rented for our mini vacation. But Garrens cabin changed my mind. First- the place is really clean!! Bathrooms are up to date and spotless. No mold or scum in the showers!! Second, the kitchen is FULLY equipt with more stuff than I ave in my very own kitchen..The outside patio had a heater and bar b que grill. There was plenty of room to seat everyone for breakfast, lunch and dinner. This will definatly be our next mini " VA- CAY" again. You will enjoy your stay as well.

We went up to the cabin over the holiday weekend and had the time of our lives. Three couples and four kids with plenty of room for all of us. Whether you enjoy sledding down the hill next to the cabin or down the tobogan hill in the park, or just sitting inside sipping on mint schnapps and hot cocoa, you are bound to enjoy yourself. The cabin is very warm and inviting. The owner obviously takes a lot of pride in making sure that you are comfortable from the time you step in the door! There were plenty of games in the cabin as well that we took advantage of and many DVDs for the kids and adults. Next time, all we are going to worry about is the food and clothes!!

We had a great time in this cabin. It was very clean, comfortable, with all the conveniences of a home and some more. Our group included people from ages 7 to 45, including two teenagers and we all had a blast! The game area was a lot of fun for everybody. Dodge Ridge is a very nice (and not too expensive) skiing area close by and it was ideal for our combination of beginners and advanced skiers. In the evenings, the cabin provided all the entertainment that we needed. The area around the cabin is very beautiful and is great for relaxed walks, especially early in the morning. The owner was very helpful. We will definitely come again!

Do yourself a favor and rent this cabin! Our family of 14 had a great time here, with plenty of room to spread out. We even had 7 extra guests over one night for a bbq, and it worked out just fine. A big bedroom downstairs worked perfectly for my daughter and her husband, 2 boys and new baby. All the beds were comfortable and the furnishings were very nice. The place was so clean, and equipped with everything you need, down to an electric griddle for Sunday morning pancakes! The kids had fun with the air hockey/pool table upstairs, we enjoyed puzzles and games around the dinette table, and loved the relaxing deck overlooking the forest surroundings. We recommend it and would definitely stay there again!

The pictures of this cabin are nice but don't do it justice. This cabin has got to be our favorite of all the ones we've stayed at. It is decorated nicely and is very warm and inviting. We had everything we needed to make our family vacation wonderful. The location is great as well! We spent our days going on walks throughout the park, playing games (there are plenty provided in the cabin), eating and drinking. The owner was very responsive and provided answers to our questions timely. We will definitely be staying here again!!

My family really enjoyed the cabin, we had a lot of young adults and they loved the pool table and darts. Not to mention the skiing and snowboarding at Dodge Ridge. The nightly walks were great also, felt really close to nature. Would love to go back any time.

Garren's cabin is a little slice of paradise. We stayed in it over 4th of July weekend along with another family. It was roomy enough for both families. It is nicely furnished and very clean. The beds are wonderful and there were a couple of nice lounge chairs on the deck which we enjoyed. Our kids, ages 5-12 all had a great time. We enjoyed walking down to the pond to fish and swim. We also drove to Pinecrest Lake to spend the day boating. We will definitely rent this cabin again.

Our family enjoyed our stay in this cabin very much. Garren was extremely accomodating in making the cabin available on short notice. The cabin itself is very clean, nicely furnished and very comfortable. The game table in the loft provided hours of entertainment. Above all else, the mattresses and bedding are nice!!!

This is a very clean and comfortable cabin. We enjoyed a wonderful weekend with seven people, although it could easily accomodate many more. Nice touches throughout.

The cabin and area on the mountain was fabulous. The cabin was well suited for our group of 8 (one toddler) and the amenities were great. We were able to lounge around for 3 days and had no distractions from any other group. The roads were plowed to the cabin, but after a recent snow storm, you needed 4 wheel drive to manuever around the roads. With the cabin being at street level, it made it very easy to get in and out. The cabin has a great covered porch leading up to the front door which makes it a great place to get out and play and not tract in any foriegn substances from the outside. We loved it!!!
