Overall a great stay at a very clean house. Communication on early check-in could have been a bit smoother, but overall a positive experience!

Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re delighted to hear you enjoyed your stay and found the house clean and comfortable. We apologize that communication regarding early check-in wasn’t as smooth as it could have been. We also appreciate your understanding that we’re located in a very small, mountainous area where cell service and internet can sometimes be unreliable. We always do our best to stay connected and respond promptly, but the local connectivity can occasionally make communication a little challenging. Thank you again for staying with us, and we’d be happy to welcome you back anytime!

We really enjoyed the location and the uniqueness of the unit! Such a short walk to get to food, coffee, and bars, short drive to waterfalls and hikes, and still very quiet. The fireplace was easy to use and a nice touch for a fall/winter stay! The beds were also very comfortable. Would definitely stay here again
