The cabin was gorgeous! Bedrooms were perfect, kitchen area nice. I would definitely stay here again. We had to reach out for a small maintenance issue during the stay & the property management company was incredibly responsive. Highly recommend this beautiful property!

The Mountain View is excellent and the house is well equipped and clean. Needs more comfortable furniture and pillows. Also disappointed in the number and price of fees. 35 damage waiver? No idea what that is

Amazing view!!

The house did not disappoint! The view was even more amazing in real life!! The neighborhood was quiet and the neighboring houses were out of sight. The house itself was nicely decorated and very clean. Plenty of space to hangout and enjoy the amazing view!

Amazing

The house was spacious, and the view was beautiful. It was also so comfortable and close to Sugar Mountain to ski, which was the reason for our visit. We would definitely rebook. The only downside was figuring out that the TVs and the DVD player were not hooked up for movies. Other than that, I have no complaints. Everything was wonderful, and communicating with the rental company was a breeze.

The fireplace did not work when we arrived and someone was sent out that day, but it would need to be fixed the next day. The next day we discovered the hot water was out. Both were due to propane needed to be filled which thankfully was resolved that day. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils, but it would have been nice to have a few more dishwasher packets, basic supplies, like shampoo. Towels and rugs were quite worn. View was great (when the clouds lifted!) and the house was very comfortable and well laid out. Overall we enjoyed our stay and were grateful for the peace & quiet.

The house was so beautiful and clean. The house had everything I needed. I did feel nervous going up the mountain at times but the view made it 100% worth it.
