The location of the cabin is great! Close to town but private. Well stocked kitchen and plenty of supplies like trash bags and paper towels. This was our second stay!
Nice stay - needs much better lighting in bedrooms n baths ! Newer bath linens not owners leftovers

Great location and home

We didn't want to leave!
Super clean and, other than food of course, stocked with everything! Plenty of linens, blankets and towels. Every cookware and utensils you need. Also, we loved that it stands alone, no immediate neighbors. We totally loved it and already planning to stay again!

LAYOUT OF HOME NOT CONVENIENT FOR MORE THAN TWO GUESTS.
The cabin is in a neat location, close to town, but not near neighbors. We enjoyed the private area. The furnishings are dated, but we expected that from the pictures in the listing. The basement was nice for leaving ski gear, and the kitchen was well-stocked with pans and utensils(although some teflon needs replaced). The cabin has excellent space for everyone and the sauna is a big bonus! The wood stove was nice on cold evenings and there was a steady supply of firewood!

Summer stay
Overall wasn’t a bad place to stay. Just need to know that it requires a level of stairs to get into the home. Spiders and bugs present throughout the home. Overall needs some updating for the price.

We are disappointed to read that your recent experience was not satisfactory. We will continue to work with both our local staff and homeowner to make improvements to this home, and we hope you'll give us a second chance to impress you!
Nice place but needs some TLC. A deep cleaning would be for starters. The parking with a trailer took some careful backing as the long narrow road to the cabin didn’t allow for turning around.
It being the hottest summer in the area, it got rather warm in the late afternoon but that was of no fault of the owners .

Great stay.
Did not receive final check in instructions until 15 min before check in time(3:45pm). Tried contacting host and Virbo by phone, email and chat all day on day of check in. Finally got a call back at 3:45pm and she texted me final check in insructions.

Thank you for staying with us, Craig! To clarify, check-in emails go out the morning of check-in at around 8 am. Yours was sent out at 7:44 am. We recommend checking the spam folder if the check-in email does not show up in our guest's main inbox. We apologize for any inconvenience this misunderstanding may have caused. We look forward to hosting you again.
The location is great! Close enough to get to anywhere conveniently, but felt far enough away from everything while cooking out on the back porch. The mountain in the backyard is so neat! The kids loved having the whole upstairs to themselves!! (Grown ups loved it too lol)
Very great experience, we will definitely be back.

Southfork Cabin
My family and I loved the cabin! It was even better than the pictures that we saw of it.
We enjoyed the loft area and we enjoyed all the games and puzzles that were there. Very beautiful scenery, plenty of fun things for us to do in the area, and a nice peaceful atmosphere.
I would highly recommend any big family to stay here. There is plenty of room.
The home was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again when traveling to the area!

Hidden Fun Cabin
We enjoyed our stay. The wildlife was amazing! Deer and even a bear! The cabin was full of everything we needed and more. The only negative feature for us was no ground level access to the main floor. You have to take stairs to get to the main level. A member of our group has trouble with stairs. Otherwise, the stay was absolutely wonderful!

Perfect for family getaway
Perfect place for a family getaway. Loved the location. The home had everything we needed and was close to a grocery store for anything we forgot. (Though far enough away from town to still feel remote.)
We really enjoyed our stay. The cabin was roomy enough for 8 adults. Kitchen well supplied. Beds comfortable with plenty of linens and towels. The location was private and beautiful. The area is beautiful too!

House was clean and had plenty of room for our party of 6. Living room needs some more comfortable seating. Rocking chair have a nice rustic touch but not very comfortable.
Roomy, quiet, nice neighborhood, good bed in master. Needs work on bath by master and kitchen cabinets need a good cleaning and replacing of some things.
