Everything was better than expected. Even one of the neighbors dog would guide us to the main road.

It was amazing!
The drive to the cabin was very scenic, and the cabin itself self was super clean and quaint. I loved the land around the property as well as the fire place over looking the mountains. 10/10 would def recommend for couples and family vacations.
We had a wonderful time. The cabin was a perfect location to town. The neighborhood was quiet and beautiful. We’ll be back again.

Liked: Check-in, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
Location was nice. No water pressure. Shower quit mid shower-multiple times. Sheets and bedspread stained. Shower curtain filthy. Toilets were badly stained. Needs a very thorough cleaning and water fixed. I sent a list and pictures to email given for cleaning service/caretaker. I did not call them while I was there like I probably should have because I did not want to deal with them while I was there. We did not spend much time at cabin.

From the owner:"Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear that parts of your stay did not meet expectations. Guest comfort is extremely important to us, and we take every concern seriously.Following your comments, we immediately sent our maintenance team for a full quality-control inspection. They found one stained dishcloth, which has been removed and replaced. No other stains were found on sheets, linens, towels, or comforters, but we appreciate you bringing this to our attention so we could double-check.Since your stay, the well was fully serviced, replacing the tank and switch, clearing sediment from all faucets and showers. Water pressure has now been restored throughout the cabin.We truly wish you had contacted our caretaker during your stay, as they are always available to help in real time and would have gladly addressed any concerns immediately, and prompt communication allows us to take care of issues right away."
Needed general cleaning, rat droppings, cleaning and a lot of maintenance outside,road terriable,and did not feel safe, there is no way you could get a camper up there not a property I would go back to.
