The hot tub was exceptional. A perfect 103 degrees with the right amount of jets for a total relaxation experience! A really nice experience all the way around. Everything was clean and the gas logs put an exclamation mark on the evening!

What an amazing relaxing experience! It’s so quiet up there and peaceful. The sun was warm and the hot tub was just what we needed to unwind. My favorite place was the indoor “treehouse” lounge. So cozy! Convenient to town and it comes with everything you need to feel right at home. We grilled out several times and the kitchen is fully functional. I love the decor! Very tasteful and not overly done. Overall, we will definitely keep this on our list to return. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Several upgrades have been completed by the new owners. The cabin is very clean and well stocked with pillows, blankets, towels, a complete kitchen and a complete laundry room, two full baths with body wash shampoo and conditioner, and a gas fireplace for ambiance while you watch a very large ROKU television. The cabin has three televisions, a king-size bed, a full-size bed and a full-size futon, all in separate rooms. The view from outside of the cabin is too beautiful for words to describe. The hot tub is maintained weekly. The cabin is about 5 minutes from Fontana Lake and Prince Boat Dock which has proven to be very accommodating. Jennifer, the host messaged prior to our arrival and asked that we let her know when we were settled, we did and she made sure everything was to our satisfaction. She has a notebook listing areas of activities and eateries as well as emergency phone numbers and locations. Our dog accompanied us and she was very comfortable as well. Jennifer went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed during our stay. This is a very special place to us. We hope to visit again next year.
The view from the deck and can be seen from the sky loft as well.
