“Luxury” is a stretch
There are many reasons why we were not comfortable and why i would never describe the glass house as luxurious. Here are some of the main ones. The glass walls are transparent at night when the lights are on inside. No curtains of any kind. Even the bathroom, which had a swath of dark film around the middle of the glass wall did not completely block the fish bowl effect. The bathroom was cold and incredibly tiny with a toy sized toilet and sink. There was no auxiliary heat. The bathroom door was a set of swinging saloon doors that offered very little privacy from the main room and was about 16” from the kitchen sink. The bathroom threshold was a serious trip hazard. The kitchen had no oven or cook top. There was a weird metal device that had dials and small pans that required a detailed manual to use. There was a plug in single burner in like a junk drawer with other utensils. We brought food to prepare for dinner but gave up on that and drove in to town for a sandwich. The solar power system was undersized causing a power failure. It took several calls to the owner before he finally said to kill the hot tub which allowed the lights and heat to operate. Scratch all plans for a night time dip in the hot tub. Out of concern that there might be another outage we slept in our clothes. With the Murphy bed lowered there was no place to sit other than the two uncomfortable tin metal chairs around the tiny dining table. Theres much more but I’ve run out of characters.

Magical Glass Cabin
Our stay at the glass cabin was nothing short of magical. The cabin itself is a marvel, with its floor-to-ceiling windows offering breathtaking views of the surrounding nature. Waking up to the sight of the sun filtering through the trees and the tranquil scenery was a highlight.
The hot tub was a luxurious touch, providing the perfect spot to relax and unwind while soaking in the beauty of the great outdoors under the stars.
Overall, our stay at the glass cabin was an incredible escape. The combination of modern comfort with natural beauty made it a unique and rejuvenating experience. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for a serene retreat.

Magical Christmas Eve
This trip was a one night Christmas Eve getaway for my fiancé and I. This year with no kids we decided to find somewhere off grid to spend a magical night together. It met all of our expectations and more. Jason and Ariel were amazing hosts, we can’t thank them enough for everything they did to ensure we had an amazing time. Check in and check out was seem less and easy. The home was spotlessly clean when we arrived. This was a much needed break from life. We will be back for sure!
