It was a wonderful convenient getaway for me and my son to stage someday hiking and sightseeing. It was very cozy and pleasant. The owners were very helpful and responsive. I would definitely book a trip there again.
We enjoyed the cabin. It was quiet and tucked away, but close to restaurants and good walking trails. It was also close to the National park so we could enjoy hikes there. The cabin was clean and comfortable, and we enjoyed the hot tub. Communication with the host was great.
We enjoyed our stay very much. Nice cabin and everything was furnished. We just found that someone had not taken care of one of his fryers for cooking , but we just used his newer one. We would, just as a suggestion, a pitcher for tea be added to his collection. Our entire stay was great and bed slept fantastic!! Thanks Derek!
It was perfect for our family of 3 plus our little dog. Close to everything and even had a momma bear and 2 cubs come see us!! Will definitely stay there again this time in the fall when we can use the fire pit!!
Very clean nd well kept. We had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.
