Our Family was so grateful to be staying at the Flying Squirrel Cabin. Feeling one with nature is such a great vibe. The mountains and lake were breathtaking, and it's awesome that the flying squirrel cabin felt like a home away from home. Our family loved making new memories, like seeing snow for the first time, making s’more, sitting by at the fire-pit and talking by the fireplace. Thank you for everything. The Valeriano family.

Lovely place in the mountains

We really enjoyed the property. Unfortunately there was a problem with the community water supply and half way through the trip the management company offered to move us to one of the other properties. The area is beautiful, roads are tough to get up but we got the hang of it The outdoor space was great. Beautiful views. Bedrooms on every level. We were there during a "heat wave" and the AC was having a hard time keeping the common area cool but I doubt that is an issue most of the year. We are from South Florida so I will never complain that 79 is too warm. I cannot say enough good things about the management company and the amenities they provide in the area. We also rented a pontoon boat from them and had an amazing day on the lake seeing the views from a different perspective.
