Excellent Cabin

Our family had a wonderful stay!! The cabin was clean and had everything and more we needed. We went Up North to do some four wheeling and this was perfectly located between Baldwin’s trails and Twisted Trails off road park. We also truly appreciated this dog friendly cabin.

Lots of room and kitchen with lots of essentials.

We went skiing right after Christmas for a couple of days at Caberfae Peaks. The house has lots of room and the kitchen was well stocked with essentials. The mattresses could use an update and it would have been better if there was another 1/2 bath, but we enjoyed our stay.

Had a great time. The only downside was there’s no air conditioning and it was in the 90’s. We enjoyed the fire pit and the surrounding woods. The house was well equipped and met our needs.

Property was well maintained and was very secluded. Had much more than we needed as far as dishes and toiletry. Definitely will be going back, caberfae was a little farther than I liked but we enjoyed everything else this property had to offer.

Perfect for our long weekend snowboarding trip

I booked this stay for my boyfriend's birthday with a handful of friends for a snowboarding trip. We loved our stay! It was quiet and private and had all the country charm you could ask for. Caberfae Peaks being a very short drive is a huge plus if you're wanting to hit the hills. The house was clean and very accommodating for our group. Wayne was super communicative and answered all my questions quickly. Would definitely recommend staying here☺️

Fishing Trip

A group of us stayed and fished nearby waters and had a great experience. We each had our own fresh bed and the place was well stocked. We fired up the grill, cooked a big dinner and had some drinks around the fire pit in the evenings. The place is private, but within a few miles of a store and some good trout water. We plan to come back.
