Like Living in Cracker Barrel
Very quaint, rustic cabin way up in the mountains, in the forest, with visits from javalinas and deer on a weekly basis. It had a nice big back yard for our dog, and it is very pet friendly. Big old two-seater swing on the back porch, like Cracker Barrel. The house is decorated with lots of kitsch (like a can of "Possum Soup" in the kitchen, haha) and it is very homey. But we had some problems getting it to be warm enough until we found the oil heaters in the closet .. there is no furnace. And it was December. The drive up and down the mountain is beautiful but it takes 12-15 minutes to get to the nearest store. Also our cell phone service was spotty, I had to drive about 2 miles to Goldwater Lake to make phone calls or text. The neighbors are super friendly though and very helpful. When the javalinas got into our garbage, the neighbors cleaned it up (they said they regularly do this for new renters) and loaned us one of their garbage cans to use. Another neighbor helped us when we got our car stuck on a tree stump (watch where you're going!), he had a big old jack and lots of tools. While walking my dog, people frequently chatted me up. Nice, friendly, peaceful neighborhood. The owner was always ready to answer any questions and help out, when I could reach him by phone, that is, like I said, the phone service wasn't too good, but the internet worked fine. This is a fun and quirky place to stay, but if you have a dog, be careful of the javalinas.
