Let me begin this review by saying this was our second stay at this lovely home. If that isn't enough encouragement to book this rental then please keep reading. The view from the back porch will blow your socks off! The house has 4 bedrooms, each with its own bathroom, and the view from the back porch is amazing! It’s peaceful and quiet, with wildlife dropping by to say hi, oh yeah and the view from the back porch is unbeatable! The house is very spacious and great for a getaway, did I mention the view the back porch? Just book this rental, you won't regret it!

This was the most beautiful and clean house we have ever stayed. All 8 of us were very pleased with everything. Our host put in a lot of hard work to make it wonderful place to stay. Even making hummingbird feeders and the mix to put in them all ready to go. Each bedroom was adorable and very comfortable. We loved being there and hope to have the chance to go again sometime.Scott and Charlotte

We had a lovely time celebrating my Mom's 92nd BD in this beautiful home. The 4 bedroom layout is perfect with each bedroom having access to a separate bath. The living/dining area was large enough for us all to sit comfortable and enjoy our time playing games and working puzzles. The large deck was a favorite place for enjoying our morning coffee along with the fresh mountain air.

This is the best place we have stayed at . We come here every year at Christmas. The home is fully stocked with everything you need . We do a lot of cooking and spending time near the fireplace. The deck and gorgeous view is also second to none. Carlene and Terry are excellent hosts, the best I have dealt with .

We very much enjoyed our stay at this property. Great views of the mountain, very good amenities, well-stocked kitchen, and a lot of room for our group of 7 to mingle and yet still have their own space to relax if needed.

The cabin is new, and tastefully decorated. We also saw tons of wildlife during our stay. This is going to be our new go-to cabin.
