This was a great honeymoon spot, very quiet, private, and beautiful. We did have to buy our own toilet paper because there were only 2 total rolls for the entire week, and dishwasher pods as well, but no big deal. We loved it here and would definitely come back!

Great quiet getaway

We loved the cabin! Had more than enough room for the two of us, very clean and tidy, the owners made it easy to settle in and feel at home! Only Issue was the hot tubs didn't seem to keep water very hot and maybe over chlorinated.

Thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub and heart shaped bathtub; definitely the highlight of the property. The fireplace is on a timer and only runs for 60 mins. Overall, decent place.

Overall the cabin was very cozy and felt secluded enough. The shower was warm and had plenty of pressure. The bed frame is close to needing replacing but still comfortable. The fireplaces worked well and the jacuzzi tub was relaxing. The hot tub was warm and relaxing as well. The only thing I would say could be done a bit better is the dusting in hard to reach areas like corners, rafters, blinds etc. However that did not make such an impact that I felt uncomfortable with it. Overall great cabin!

There was a bug carcass under the bathroom sink in the cabinet. The mattress felt like a memory foam when you first laid on it but it caved/dished in throughout the night. I liked the location, but it was difficult to turn around due to a small parking area. Needs a hairdryer, small but fine for a couple, peaceful and serene. Overall, a good stay. I will not do VRBO again as their fee was added after I thought I had completed my payment. Thank you.

Cabin was in good condition. Comfortable bed, comfortable couch. The couch is different than in the pictures, it was more comfortable than we expected. Beautiful mountain atmosphere, private without being too far from civilization. Only one complaint would be the cookware. There’s not a not to choose from, and it needs updated. Overall we had a really nice time. Thank you.

Cozy cottage

Our stay at Northern Lites was very peaceful and enjoyable. The little cottage cabin was nestled against a hill in a nice area. The cabin was clean and well kept. The cabin is a short walk to the catch and release pond. The only negative was we had to back up the steep hill to access the cabin because the drive is too narrow for a full size truck to turn around. Overall, I would recommend Northern Lites to a friend.

Relaxing stay

Everything was good overall. There was something we thought was paint on the front of the cabinets when we got there. We realized it was pancake mix from the last guest. There was also a small hole that looked like a mouse was living in.There were ice bags on the ground over the deck that was left from previous guests as well.

Cozy Cabin in the Woods

This is great secluded cabin for couples or anyone looking to unwind for a few days. Amenities are completely adequate. The driveway getting up to the cabin is a little steep, I’m not sure it could be done in a sedan so keep that in mind. The cabin is situated in the woods so it is very buggy in the summertime… if you are nervous around spiders (or flying insects) I would avoid as my girlfriend and I walked through a spider web leaving the cabin every morning. We didn’t use the provided hot tub for this reason, but this wasn’t a dealbreaker. Cleaning could have been better around windowsills (bugs, spider webs, etc.) but otherwise we had a very pleasant stay.

Summary

Property was just as advertised and shown in pictures - it's a cozy, private cabin with plenty of room for two. We LOVED sitting on the secluded deck for morning coffee & in the evenings after hiking all day. Be sure to bring your own soap & toilet paper as there's a very limited supply provided in the cabin.

Cabin was “bear-able”

Overall experience was good. Staff was friendly. Only criticism was cabin was dusty especially the HVAC intake…electronic fireplace in jacuzzi would not operate, but we didn’t use it anyway. Stove drip pans were rusty. Could not find a broom to sweep the leaves that blew into the unit. None of this is a deal-breaker, just observations. On a plus side, we were visited by a mama bear and her two cubs. That was a highlight of our trip…
