We had a wonderful time staying here! The seclusion and time spent away from the tv/telephones was much needed. Unfortunately it rained during our trip so we were not able to make our way down to the fire pit, however, that gave us the chance to stay in and listen to the rain hit the roof and enjoy the inside scenery! It really helped us not think of anything except relax and decompress and enjoy ourselves.

What an absolute DREAM! If you're even considering booking this cabin, just do it! You will not be disappointed. Park at the top and follow the lovely string lights along a path that leads to the cabin. Outside you can enjoy the lock tree, an outdoor shower, fire pit and hammock by the creek. Inside, breathtaking! I couldn't get over the beautiful handmade bed, chandeliers and the clawfoot tub! They even had romantic french music playing! We just left yesterday and I can't wait to go back!

Amazing Mountain Getaway

This was a gem we found that was a unique and romantic trip for my wife and I. The details make it clear that every aspect was planned out and it immerses you into the French experience. We loved our stay here and plan on returning. FYI there is a walk down to the cabin that is downhill so be prepared to carry your baggage a little ways.

Amazing love, nest

This was the most beautiful weekend getaway. My boyfriend and I ever had. Everything was so lovingly prepared and thought through. This is the best place for a couple in love to really focus on each other. If you come here to enjoy intimacy, love and peace. This is the place to come to.
