The host were very nice and accommodating. Everything was set up like fireplace, firepit and jacuzzi. Unfortunately we really didnt get to use the fires, because the weather was perfect. My hubby use the jacuzzi once, which was nice but I didn’t really get a chance. Nice to be close to everything.

This property is exactly as depicted. It's a rustic cabin in great shape that can accommodate 4 adults, 3 children and a dog. We had our son and his family visit and even stay with our grandchildren who couldn't wait to go into the heated pool and hot tub everyday. The cabin's on 17 acres with great views of the mountains, , the Hot tub is on a deck that over looks deep wooded views as far as the eyes can see. The hosts, David and Carolyn did everything possible to make sure our stay was great. We will definitely stay here again.

Good but not very private
The cabin was fine. However, the location was not very private as you see in photos. The pool is surrounded by houses and other cabins as was the cabin I rented. I was disappointed that this location was not on a single property instead it was a mutli dwelling property.

A pool with a view
Great little family compound. The pool was perfect for the kids and surprisingly warm compared to the mountain streams we ventured out to on day trips. We look forward to returning and spending more time at the cabin. We stayed so busy with hikes and board games and never had time for the hot tub.

TRANQUILITY
Myself, two adult daughters and my 13 yr.old grandaughter stayed for a week. It was the most relaxing week ever! I'll admit if I wasn't in my bathing suit I was in my pj's ( while at the cabin)The pool was great! We used it everyday! The water temperature, the sound of the water and the view was spectacular! The cabin was well equipped with everything you'll need. The beds and pillows were sooo comfortable!! We sat on the beautiful back deck everyday and the swing on the front porch was used often as well. Last but not least, David was there for ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING we needed!! We highly recommend recommend this property if you're looking for a peaceful,worry free vacation. We will definitely be staying here in the future. Thank you David for your hospitality and generosity. Carolyn was lovely too, we just didnt see her as often.

Quaint and welcoming, supported the couple of small asks we had in preparation for our wedding in a timely manner. Only thing we had an incorrect assumption of was the proximity of the property to other houses, and the pool being right off the back deck of another house. This may have just been a misunderstanding on our part in regards to the privacy of the unit, and otherwise the experience was great!

Ideal Location
Overall, it was a good stay. Cabin had ample room and amenities. It was well stocked with kitchen and bathroom materials. Our only criticism was there were no test strips for the hot tub (we ave had several tubs and were very critical about testing the chemicals before we got in…but that’s just our own pet peave). All in all, it was a good stay.
