Our friends' getaway may become an annual tradition at the "log cabin mansion" as we affectionately called it. The spectacular mountain views alome made the trip worth it. The home was clean and spacious including a small library upstairs and an exercise and game area downstairs. The host was communicative and provided helpful recommendations for the area. We enjoyed cooking out on the grill and preparing a pancake breakfast in the clean well-stocked kitchen. The hot tub under the stars was also definitely a fan favorite.

The host was great with communication and very helpful! But we did find soap rings around the tub, and it needs a deeper clean, there was dirt and dead bugs under rug corners and furniture. The property is as pictured, deck and view are beautiful!!! But, no one slept the whole stay, there is no wall above the doors in upstairs room and basement room so noise travels SO MUCH and temperature is difficult (upstairs was too hot, basement freezing). You can hear everything on all three house levels, so if you have kids and want them to sleep, I would look for another option with walls to ceiling for better sound and temperature control.

This place sits on a spectacular scenic overlook and offers wonderful amenities, including a BBQ and a hot tub. With its large windows, you can enjoy panoramic mountain views throughout the day, then relax in the hot tub under the stars at night. We visited in November and can’t wait to return again in the summer!

Warm and cozy. Perfect view. Convenient to the less-utilized Thornton entrance to the national park. Amazing escape. I would highly recommend this place for nature immersion and beautiful sunsets from the deck. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Beautiful house & attentive host. But felt guest amenities were an afterthought & like we had to tend house more than be on vacation. Seemed the house wasn't prepped for guests recently. Biggest issue was an empty well water neutralizer that made all water smell like rotten egg for a couple days that made showering unbearable (we were not familiar with well water so we didn't know what the water smell was coming from). We didn't end up showering on the last day due to horrendous water smell & checked out early. Nice views & house is private without being too secluded. Recommend a SUV to access the house from either direction.

Mystic Pines was exactly what my wife and I were looking for, for our first anniversary: somewhere just outside the city with stunning views, peace, and quiet. The cabin itself is extremely well appointed, and while it makes a good base camp for exploring the area, you won’t want to leave.

A wonderful, relaxing time! My family thoroughly enjoyed ourselves taking in the stunning views and cozying up for movie nights and homemade meals. We especially loved how easy it was for all of us to maneuver around the kitchen without getting in each other’s way. A beautiful experience that we will cherish for a very long time.

We really enjoyed our stay at Mystic Pines. The home was cozy, clean, and well equipped. The views are spectacular!! We enjoyed both the cabin and many of the things the surrounding area offered. Hiking at the state park, geocaching, area wineries, and more.Communication was great and appreciated them checking in to make sure all was well. We will definitely consider returning in the future.
