Wonderful experience!!

We LOVED this cabin. It was very clean and literally a home away from home. The beds were super comfy too. The owners were very responsive to any questions!! The only thing that would have made our vacation better was to see bears lol.

Nice cabin

We enjoyed staying here, and our daughter (8) really liked the hot tub! Didn't get lucky enough to see the bears, but enjoyed the location and accommodations. My wife wasn't a fan of the drive up, but after a few times you start to find your way!
