Very peaceful cabin! We were pulling our enclosed trailer and had plenty of room to park the trailer and the truck. We saw mule deer every morning on the property! We were very pleased with the accommodations. Beds were comfy and it was a roomy house.

This is an older, basic property, but it worked well for us. The driveway is great and we were able to manuever our 18 foot trailer with no problems. The gas grill worked well. The kitchen was well equipped and all the appliances worked. The fridge was nice and cold. We cook our own meals so this is important to us.I agree with the other reviewers who say the larger bed's mattress is very hard. We had to move to the smaller bed which was more comfortable.It was nice to have a full size washer and dryer and we took advantage of it to do a load of laundry.The house sits back from the road and it is quiet and feels private.

Property was clean but "mature." Property had a fireplace but no fireplace tools. King sized bed but very hard. My wife actually slept on the couch as the bed was bothering her back and hips.

Hi Gary, The cabin is just a basic cabin no frills just accomodating and inexpensive. There are two beds if one wasn't to your wives comfort, the couch also folds out. As far as the fireplace tools, thank you, I hadn't registered there weren't tools, we will ask the owner to remedy that and get tools.

Property was quiet and clean, but I had a few complaints.First, the dining room table had very uncomfortable chairs. I think they were collapsible hard metal.The kitchen faucet sprayed water to the side when turned on, so it got the counter wet, which I had to constantly clean.The shower on the left (the only one I used) has nice pressure, but when you pull up the lever on the spout below, only about 75% of the water goes to the shower head. The rest is lost below, so the pressure is weak.The shower head is located about 5'9", way too low for me. Would be nice to raise it 6" or so.

Peaceful Mountain Getaway!!

The property itself is surrounded by chalk cliffs and Mountain Views that are beautiful! The house has tons of large windows to enjoy the views. While the house isn’t fancy (which isn’t what we were looking for anyway), it had everything we needed and more! It has two large living areas with adequate/comfortable seating, a spacious fully stocked kitchen, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, plenty of extra bedding, a full size washer and drier, a garage, a propane grill, a picnic table, and lawn chairs to enjoy the fire pit or just sit outside and enjoy the beauty. The host has done an excellent job of making sure no detail has been missed including vintage touches throughout! We absolutely loved our stay and look forward to returning!

Stephanie, thank you for your truthful review! Sometimes all you need is a clean, comfortable place to lay your head for an economical price. The cabin is just that, it is not advertised as a luxury cabin though if you would like luxury we also rent those types of houses. Please come again to enjoy the majesty of the canyon.
