A Gem with Views of Capitan Gap

The cabin was absolutely charming, clean, and warm. I felt right at home. Everything was clean and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed including coffee in the morning. The porch was one of my favorite places to sit at night and the view of Capitan Gap Mountain. I can't wait to go back! So relaxing!
