Planned to use the grill, grill was in poor shape all rusted and dirty. Even if I wanted to clean it, both tanks were empty. It was very disappointing. Overall house was just meh, not what I expected for 500 a night. Oh well.

Great stay, beautiful place. A little worried about the back deck as it has a lean and hot tub water level is very uneven. Otherwise they gave us a late check out without asking witch was great! I clean cabins too. 20 years. I would stay again.

Thank you for your review, we are pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. If you are back in the High Country, we would love to have you visit with us again.
Our private getaway at this cabin was exactly what we needed for a quiet, bonding experience. The space was spotless and welcoming. Entry was easy with a door code, and the host provided clear, detailed instructions and expectations for the property.The cabin was thoughtfully set up with two bedrooms and two bathrooms, which made our stay extremely comfortable. All appliances worked perfectly, and the fireplace added a cozy touch that made the evenings feel especially peaceful. I also appreciated the binder on the table that listed nearby activities like skiing and rock climbing, it was helpful and made planning our days effortless. The back patio view of the mountains was absolutely stunning. Even though the temperatures were too cold for us to enjoy the jacuzzi, it was clean, functional, and ready for use.The only caution I would mention is that the mountain roads leading to the property can be a bit tricky and require careful driving. Aside from that, everything about the stay felt serene, intimate, and well taken care of. Highly recommend for couples looking for a relaxing, private retreat in the mountains.
