The property and wildlife around was unforgettable. I created some of the best memories here. Heavily recommended for a romantic/family getaway. Will be back!
The cabin was beautiful felt like being at home ! The Host was amazing and everything was clean and we definitely will come back and stay ! This is a must book we enjoyed the hikes ,fishing ,peaceful stay .
The cabin is lovely. The views of the lake and the mountains were great, especially at sunrise and sunset. The kitchen had all the equipment we needed to eat well. The beds were comfortable, and the shower was great. We couldn't have asked for more.
We stayed over Christmas and the house was decorated with lighted garland a nice Christmas tree inside and even three lighted pine trees in the back yard. We have enjoyed our stay immensely. The amenities are abundant. They have thought of everything down to q-tips in the restrooms. In the upstairs loft area you will find books, board and card games that we enjoyed playing. The host is readily available via email to assist with anything you may need. The views from the windows are amazing, we enjoyed watching the wildlife including deer, squirrels and many colorful birds. There are two great patios to enjoy the outdoors that are both furnished for convenience and enjoyment. You can’t go wrong with booking a stay here. Thanks again to the wonderful host for thinking of everything to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. We will be back someday!
