  • Just wanted to thank you for a great long fall weekend!!!! Your cabin was great and had everything we needed. We had a great mountain view and even saw a bear within 100ft of the cabin our 1st night there. Your cabin comfortably slept our group and could have evn held up to 14 comfortably. We didnt realize how big and comfortable the cabin was when we booked it. and loved the fireplaces,pool table,hot tub,lg dining table and 2 porches. We used it all and had a great time!!!!!thanks again!

  • Overall, we enjoyed our stay. There were 12 adults (incuding 3 teens), so sleeping arrangements were a little stretched. I loved the kitchn/living room updates. However, the bedrooms were a little musty smelling and need updating also. Our bedroom upstairs was a little cramped--We did not get the large spacious bedroom! My other concern is about the parking. On the website, the picture and description for parking shows the adjoining property parking lot. It was difficult to park 4 vehicles on that narrow steep grade. We did enjoy working with you all and you were very accomodating! For the money it was a great value!

  • We had an awesome time!! There two other families with us. We had plenty of room, the kids ran all over the place. We had a momma bear and 3 cubs that came and visited every day, sooo exciting! There was also a chubby little squirrel that loves bread that came to the deck every morning. Everything was almost perfect. 2 small complaints; 1. need more kitchen towels 2. the bears were able to get into the garbage everyday. My Father in Law was picking up garbage every morning. Other than that, it was definately an awesome chalet and we had a great time. We will definately be back next year with the kiddos, they didn't want to leave:)
    
    Homeowner Response:
    We are in town right after this guests stay. We will be sure to provide more kitchen towels. The trash receptacle was damaged and would not close properly. That is what allowed the bears to get into the trash and make a mess. We already contracted someone to repair the receptacle so it latches properly. Val & Renee

  • We had a great time up at the cabin. Bears smelled my chili and they came right up to the window on the porch. My daughter was a little scared but the bears left and we had a great story to take home! This place is a great value.

  • We had a great time at the Halfway to Heaven chalet! The view was gorgeous especially with the windows that give you a clear view of almost 360 degrees! The pool table was great when it was cold and we were nice and toasty with the fireplace! The renovations have proved to make this cabin even better! If I ever want to see snow again, this is where we're going!
