Lover's Landing!
Great place to relax by the mountainside, enjoy some pristine views and take a step back from the city. My significant other and I enjoyed the container minimum over 4th of July weekend and absolutely loved it. It was exactly what we needed to reset!

Amazing July 4th weekend!
My husband and 3 small dogs stayed at Laura and Steves property over July 4th weekend and it was everything we hoped for and beyond! Laura and Steve were great hosts, making sure we had everything we needed while being very respectful of our privacy. We had wonderful fireworks show from the windows and sitting outside. The property was clean, had everything we needed and we loved the decorations. We grilled every night, sat under the stars and also got to meet their cute tortoise! We would recommend this stay a million times over and hope to go back one day!
