Host responded promptly to all inquiries. The cabin was very clean upon our arrival. Beds were comfy with great linens. Plenty of extra linens and towels. We were excited to watch the Winter Olympics on the tv in living room. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals instead of eating out. Plenty of space for our family of 5. One of the best rental experiences we have ever had.

Cozy and quiet stay

My husband and I spent a long weekend here to get some fresh air and quiet time and it hit spot! The cabin was clean and cozy, we had excellent bird and deer watching out the windows, and the access to the trail made for a great long walk to Union Dale. Property was exactly as expected and the owners were responsive and helpful. Would stay again!

Very relaxing

We had a very relaxing trip. The only down fall was that we could not cook out on the grill. There was a birds nest in the grill and the weather was raining. It was a great to see all the wildlife right from the house and having games to play made my kids day.

Perfect cabin for skiing at Elk Mountain

We came for a family vacation to go skiing at Elk Mountain. The location to the mountain, only 10 mins by car, was perfect for us. When not skiing it was great to have easy access to the D&H trail with our dog. We took advantage of the wood stove and had plenty of extra wood from the garage.

Wonderful getaway in the woods

This cabin was just what we were looking for! Beautiful views, lots and LOTS of space to run around, easy access to trails and so peaceful. We took the advice of the guide and visited Chet’s Place for dinner and visited the nearby lake. Both were great. My family and I had the most wonderful time and would love to return! 10/10 - would recommend!

Great Place for a Ski Weekend

This was my family’s second stay here and we’ve been happy each time. You can’t beat the cabin vibes with the great wood burning stove and the all wood interior. About 10 minutes from Elk. Restaurants in the area are decent, but don’t expect fancy. You’re in the mountains. Jia is incredibly responsive and a great host. We’re looking forward to next year already!

About the host

Hosted by Jia

Host profile image
Jia (husband) and Li (wife) live in Florida for almost 30 years. Jia moved to Switzerland in the 80s to pursue his PhD in Lausanne. We lived in Switzerland for (6) years, during that time we were able to travel a lot by train through western Europe. After a brief time in Singapore we moved to Florida, where we currently live.

We love this property because of the rustic and cozy feel along with the beautiful mountain view. It’s the country getaway that we were looking for. We hope you'll enjoy this piece of paradise as much as we have

Why they chose this property

This property is very convenient to go to all local amenities. It provides a marvelous mountain view from the deck. All different activities are very close and accessible from the property, such as ski, hiking, snow mobile, sled, golf, fishing, boating, hunting, wild animal watching, or just sitting lazily in front of the wood burner during the winter or outside fire pit during the summer.

What makes this property unique

Very close to the Elk Mountain Ski Resort.

Direct access to the D&H trail system where you can walk, bike, cross country ski or snow mobile.

20 plus acres where you can snow sled, golf, or even hunting.

Not very big cabin, yet very comfortable to accommodate a family of up to 6 people.
