The property was everything we invisioned. The communication with the host was excellent.The cabin and running creek surrounded by tall pines was ideal.
Excellent!The cabin in the tall pines by a creek is very nice and neat as a pin!Marilyn is a wonderful host and very helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed every minute.
The cabin is unique and historic as well as peaceful with just the water racing past. We got a little lost on the dirt road but they came and assured us we were in the right place. I would definitely stay here again.

couldnt have been more perfect!!! the beds were comfy!!!
We were just looking for a place for a quick getaway, this cabin was absolutely perfect. We grilled outside for dinner abd breakfast, had a fire going in the firepit. Was clean, private and exactly as listed. Thank you for a wonderful little memory
Pictures don't do this cabin justice. It's like staying in the Enchanted forest, peaceful, absolutely breathtakingly beautiful.The host Marilyn and her son Chris were more than responsive in their communication and made everything a breeze.Didn't want to leave, will definitely be returning hopefully sooner than later.
Loved our stay here! Quiet area with sounds of the nearby creek and water rushing. Perfect place to get away and stay while enjoying the Big Horn Mountains.
First and foremost, five stars for the cabin and location. I have no complaints. The cabin has everything we needed to have a great stay. Check in and out was seamless and easy. The location is beautiful with a creek flowing nearby.A few things to note. There is a house nearby within sight of the cabin. The cabin host has taken some steps to increase the privacy with landscape fencing. We were there for four nights and actually never saw anyone else. The other thing is that while we were there, the creek with the walking bridge over it in front of the cabin was dried up. No big deal for us as there is another creek 100 yards behind the cabin.Overall, no complaints about the cabin or property. We would definitely stay there again!
Lovely, rustic getaway and a perfect staging area for a number of sites in the area.
