Robin- We arrived home at 2 this morning and cannot stop "gushing" about your wonderful cabin. The ever changing weather was a treat. We did have snow on Monday & the guys drove to Nevada to play golf! I left a note in the guestbook, but your suggestion of Coyote Moon was spot on! The weather on Thursday was perfect. We enjoyed the week & hiked, shopped, ate, drank & caught up on everyone's lives. North Tahoe is truly a magical place and we hope to return soon! Thanks for all the effort you put into Blackhawk. If you ever travel to the Southeast & plan a visit to our area, please let us know. K Callis

Thank-you for renting us your cabin. We loved our stay there but it was too short. We had a hard time leaving the cabin and the lake . We love both - wow what a beautiful life abounds on the west shore. Thanks

We LOVED our mini vacation. The cabin was perfect. Your cabin is our idea of a perfect vacation. We cooked all our meals, I love the stove, and we were in the hot tub a couple of times a day. Our younger daughter moved into the room with the two beds and read a couple of books on the dresser. We would like to visit again. Although we can't decide if it should be another summer vacation or a winter ski vacation. We'll be back to your cabin!

Hi – we had a great time! Snow was good enough to ski on – it was like Spring skiing! We LOVE your cabin – just our style. Everything is dialed in at your cabin – thanks for thinking of all of the details. The beds are very comfortable and the cabin is what a cabin should be. We will definitely be back! Thanks for everything!

We loved it! Yes, there was lots of snow, but we got out ok. The kids didn't want to leave. Everything was great . We actually owe you a wine glass ( one broke) or we could even buy you a drink sometime, everyone wants to go back again . The jacuzzi was wonderful. Thanks again.
