We had a wonderful stay at The Basin. Check-in was smooth, communication was clear and timely, and the cabin was comfortable, clean, and well equipped. The setting was peaceful and made for a perfect home base for our trip. Everything was just as described, and it was clear the hosts care deeply about the guest experience. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend Pintler Cabins to others.
We had a great time, the property was in a great location, very clean and accommodated our party perfectly. The doors need a little WD 40 due to some squeakiness but other than that it was perfect!

Awesome get away!
Everything about The Basin was great! A very modern/rustic get away place that my family thoroughly enjoyed. It came with everything we needed and the host was very helpful! We would highly recommend this place to anyone.
When I tell you, I did not want to leave… I did not want to leave! We have stayed at several places throughout our travels and this was such an incredible place to relax and unwind. The home was immaculate, the location was so beautiful, our host was fantastic with communication and I could not have asked for a better place to have stayed for our anniversary. If I could rate it more than five stars, I would.

Thank you for this wonderful review Maria! We are so a happy that you loved The Basin as much as you did! Happy anniversary and we hope to host you again soon, thanks for being such a wonderful guest.
The house is extremely well laid out giving three couples privacy when needed yet providing an extraordinary central gathering space. The quality of construction was well above average. Every member of our group was delighted with their accomodations.

Awesome home!
We had a wonderful weekend at The Basin! Such a beautiful home and property. The beds were very comfortable and the home had everything we could need. We even say a great horned owl and black bear from the deck!
