Great views! Very clean!

Layout is great for 2-3 couples. Home had everything you could need & was very clean. The view is calming & gorgeous. Centrally located; you could head north one day and south the next and catch all the main attractions. Needles highway was our favorite. Enjoy!

Cool mountain house

Super nice views and plenty of room. Since it is on a mountain/forest though some of the roads are steep and made of gravel - be prepared!

Nice place but..

It was a nice place, clean and quiet but the AC system didn’t keep up very well with warm temperatures. The bedrooms were the warmest parts of the house and make’s it difficult to sleep. Other than that it was a wonderful time.

We so enjoyed our stay. Julie and Chuck were absolutely wonderful to work with. The Bercher was the perfect size for our family. The hot tub on the deck was fabulous and so was the view. We wish we had known how long it took to get up the mountain to the house, but we have no other complaints.
