We had a wonderful time. The cabin was perfect and clean. They have everything you need for cooking. It’s so peaceful! We enjoyed everything about it, especially the large deck, sitting outside with the family and grilling. Nice quiet road to take a walk on. We enjoyed the fire pit for making s’mores. Definitely would return !

Thank you for this wonderful review. We're so glad the cabin was the perfect peaceful retreat and that the well-stocked kitchen made cooking together easy. We love that you got to enjoy time with family on the large deck, grilling, taking walks on the quiet road, and gathering around the fire pit for s'mores. Those are exactly the moments we hope our guests will have. We can't wait to welcome you back. The VueStay Team

We really enjoyed our time at Heaven on the Hill. Not only was our stay extremely peaceful and relaxing, but the cabin was easily accessible and the drive to and from the main roads was beautiful. Communication with management group was excellent. Representative checked in with us regularly and graciously addressed a couple of issues we had.

Everything was great until I stepped on blob of black hair in the shower. That is yucky!! Location was good and sitting on the deck was such a nice view. I’d prefer blinds or thicker window treatments in the bedroom. JS! On a scale of 1-10, I’d say 9.5.

This is a nice place with a very large porch. Plenty of room inside for stretching out. I wish the large French door opening onto the deck had screens.

Wonderful way to relax and connect

I loved that the cleaning crew takes care of the laundry and cleaning. We loved the pool table and games. It was a perfect retreat. 20-25 minutes from civilization but that was ok for us. Kitchen had everything we needed to make food.
