-It doesn't usually get very hot, even in the middle of summer, but feel free to use the window fans if it gets too warm or stuffy in the cabin; they usually work best with one at the top of the basement stairs pulling fresh air in, and another one in the window by the TV pushing air out. A third fan in the main floor bedroom at night may also help.

Beautiful spot in the woods, within a 15 minute drive from White Grass xcountry skiing and other ski spots in the valley. Comfortable clean house with all you need including several coffee-making options, great common space with fireplace. Host was very responsive and helpful. We’ll look forward to staying here again.
Nice and private. The bottom bedroom has the most comfortable bed. There are multiple different sitting areas to relax in the trees with various views. We enjoyed our stay.
We loved our stay here. Highlights for me were the deck and the wood burning fireplace. We had a few issues and the host was super responsive and helpful! We hiked around Blackwater Falls and Seneca Rocks, just beautiful in the fall. Thanks for the lovely trip!
Host was very welcoming and responsive. House very private and comfortable. Beds were comfortable. Views lovely. Kitchen had basics, plus Kurig, regular coffee maker, instant hot tea kettle, and what looked like cappuccino machine ( we didn’t try it). Couches and furniture in main area very comfortable and newish. Overall, very nice stay.
What a wonderful place to stay, the house was beautiful and had everything needed for our stay. Our host was welcoming and very helpful. House was well stocked with paper towels, and Tp for our extended stay. The sound of the creek was so peaceful in the mornings . When we arrived there was a Christmas tree set up and my grandkids loved it. The area is close to town and all attractions but far enough away to enjoy nature and the wildlife. We could not have asked for a better host or better place to spend Christmas with the grandkids. Truly an amazing experience.
From booking through the end of our day we were satisfied! Really a great place at a reasonable rate. Appreciated the responsiveness of property owner.Could use some updates in furnishing and outside amenities such as fire pit and outdoor furniture. That said the enjoyment of our stay was not impacted!

Thanks for your kind words and feedback! We have since added a firepit and updated outdoor furniture to the cabin, we hope you'll stay again and get the chance to enjoy them! All the best, Efi
The house was a great place to stay. A few things that will keep our family from staying here in the future. The was only a roll and a half of toilet paper in the house, no paper towels were provided, the downstairs bathroom has mold on the inside of the shower at the door frame, the house was very dusty on tables and lamp fixture. There was a signed form that was left from mid November from a previous guest, and there was only one dishwasher tab to use in the dishwasher. The place was great. Just wished that it was more prepared for a family to stay for two nights.
