I stayed here in the 70s and decided to give it a try on this trip, traveling with my dog. The property is typical mountain cabin-ish , quiet and great views of the trees. It’s nothing fancy. Maybe in the 70s I thought it was fancy. There are several cabins to choose from with different sizes and layouts and for the tail end of this road trip having a refrigerator and microwave in the room was nice. Overall, I would stay here again.
