The host was very helpful and responsive. The amenities were more than adequate for a cabin or home in a wilderness area. The location was perfect for all of the activities I was interested in, including hiking and wildlife photography.

The home was locate where you seen mountains & fields. They thought of everything one might need. It just felt like home. So many places to hang out outside if you would like. We scene elk 3 different times & 7 deer 1 time down the road, nightly we scene turkeys. It was a place to relax & unwind but close enough to hike & explore if you wish.
