My daughter and I had such a great time here. It was super clean and cozy! We loved the location, too, as it was close to numerous hiking trails and a few local restaurants, yet far enough away to feel secluded for that mountain feel. We would definitely book here again!
We had a wonderful time staying at this property. The cabin was incredibly clean and beautifully decorated and well stocked with all the necessary tools for the stay, with a stunning view. The hosts were incredibly kind, responsive when/if we needed them or had questions, and made the stay really pleasant and hassle free. I HIGHLY recommend staying at ANY of the 3 cabins spread out on this property, and we look forward to booking with them again soon.

We appreciate the kind words about your stay. We love hearing that our guest are loving the cabins.
The A frame cabin is cozy and modern in the middle of a beautiful setting in the woods. Off the beaten path and also easy to find. The outside fire pit and lighting was so peaceful and lovely. The space is meant for 1 or 2 people. Small and cozy with a bit of a climb to get to the super comfy bed. If mobility issues it may be a problem. Will be back for sure!
