Rainy Trip

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Although it rained everyday, we still enjoyed our three day stay in the mountains. The road getting to the cabin was a bit rough. The heavy rains played a big part in road condition. The cabin was just as described, plenty of room to move around and perfect for four people.

Relaxing, peaceful & fun!!

What a wonderful place to relax and enjoy nature! The cabin was clean and stocked just as said. Make sure to bring any extra kitchen and house items listed that you may need. Internet is very spotty which was just fine for us. This gave us a chance to disconnect from the world. The dirt roads leading in are also challenging to drive but like I said well worth it. We loved every minute of our trip. This is our 25th women's trip and normally we only stay one year at each cabin but we have already booked this cabin for next year!!3

Quiet Getaway

Great property on a wonderful lazy creek bed. Loved the view. Very clean and well kept and perfect instructions on how to reach the property. It was a windy, hilly gravel road but accessible. We had a wonderful weekend.

Relaxing getaway

The view of the river and soundscape is exquisite. The rushing water is calming and there are multiple places to sit and enjoy the view. The cabin itself serves it's purpose.
