Great getaway

This was a perfect getaway for our family of 4. Cozy and very clean, secluded but very close to Crystal Mountain. Great wifi so our kids could do e-learning all week. Kids loved the bunk beds and air hockey and we all enjoyed being in the yard and making smores every night. We hope to come back!

September Fun

We had a great time at the cabin and was able to fit in a kayak trip on the lower Platte River. A beautiful cabin in a great location! The owner is very quick and helpful in answering questions. Would certainly recommend staying at this rental! So clean and well stocked! Thanks for a wonderful time!

Fantastic cabin close to Crystal Mountain!

We had a great weekend at Amy's cabin. We were able to snowshoe on the property and play air hockey in the basement! The cabin is minutes away from Crystal Mountain and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thanks!

ADORABLE!

This cabin is an absolute gem. My whole family had a ball here. We were able to play outside in the snow and then come in for hot chocolate and family game night. The fact that it was just a minute from Crystal Mountain was FABULOUS! We would love to stay here again.

Magical Cabin in the Woods

This authentic log cabin in the woods is a peaceful retreat yet so close to Crystal Mountain amenities and local breweries and restaurants. The cabin is clean, cozy, and decorated with a cute cabin theme. It’s a wonderful place to get away and relax. Amy is a responsive and great host! We had a wonderful time!

We really enjoyed our stay

This house is in a truly wonderful location with many fun activities in the area. It sits in a quiet, private wooded area. It is clean, spacious and air conditioned. Our kids were so pleased with the basement and the toys that were provided. The kitchen is clean and had whatever we needed. A washer/dryer would've made this place perfect. We would stay here again.

The home was very clean and in a wonderful location. One suggestion would be adding a railing on the basement steps. A must for people that have difficulty with steps. Thanks for all your assistance!!
