Property was great for what we needed, beautiful location, great views, clean and well equipped. Host was helpful. We were staying in the area for a wedding so it would've been great to have an iron/ironing board!

Alpine magic

We loved staying here! Super cosy and sun-soaked, great kitchen and outdoor area, and the most wonderful views, from the rocks to the mountains and forest, with the sound of the stream below. Thank you so much for being so friendly and helpful, we'd love to return!

Amazing views. Awesome little house

Everything you could possibly hope for in a little cabin tucked away in the mountains. Great views 360 degrees around the property. Huge kitchen, nice wood stove for heat, and close enough by local attractions. Wish i couldve stayed longer

Simple and comfortable setup with great views out to the mountains. The house was very clean and the fireplace was put to good use with the unseasonable weather. The house held its heat well. The kitchen was well kitted out and had all the equipment we needed including sharp knives. Beds were comfortable and the pillow selection was varied which was a bonus.

It was perfect place to come back to after a day of skiing and exploring. We loved the warm fire and the great functional kitchen, thank you very much! We lost power on the last night (to much snow fall!) So we where unable to vacuum sorry!..
