Family Reunion

We had a 15 person family reunion. The house had lots of rooms and enough bathrooms. Unfortunately the hot tub was out of commission for our entire stay. We did have a plumbing problem and it was very promptly addressed. Lots of rooms for cars, and a driveway up to the back of the house to unload groceries/upper level suitcases was helpful. Kids loved the loft and the firepit for roasting marshmallows. Fun time was had by all.

Family gathering

Got married with all family under one roof. Every couple had their own bedroom and 2 couples to a bathroom. Woods well for family gatherings and on the trail system for side by side rides. Would recommend this to anyone.

Great location, not cleaned.

I will start with it is a good setup and great location. However I was told the prior renters of the cabin left it a major mess. And they left the morning our stay was booked to start. The contact crew said sometimes they don’t have enough time to keep up the basic maintenance on the property because the quick turn around. The most unacceptable part was when we went to cook breakfast the first morning we went to grab a supplied pan to use and saw it was dirty, we moved it out of the way and found a deep pot full of old food that was left there. And when we opened the cupboards we found open and expired non refrigerated items. The house had odds and ends not working like it should, one of the down stairs doors said it was not working, one of the windows were broken to where it was a chore to get it closed after we opened it which had no note on it. All four bath room vents were covered in dirt, bathroom towel hangers were broken, storage wicker baskets were broke, the fridge was missing the face of the control panel, and the house had lights bulbs out. Also, a lot of the rooms had an odor to were we had to open the rooms to let fresh air in. The hot tub was beyond disgusting, and no matter how many times they cleaned it we weren’t able to us it. And when I reach out to the crew. It felt like I was getting the run around. I honestly think most my problems could be avoided by someone actually cleaning and not just changing the bedding. And I have yet to hear anything back.

4-wheeling trip

This cabin was perfect for our large group! Enough bedrooms and bathrooms and we never ran out of hot water! Enough parking for several trailers and vehicles. Close access to great trails! Highly recommend!

Mount Meadow Belated Christmas

My family and I went for an immediate family belated Christmas gathering. There were 7 adults and 3 children in attendance. We loved the lay out and loved the space this home provided. I would recommend this space for those that have children all ranges of ages. The hot tub and comfortable features of being at “home” made it cozy. Parking is plentiful. The home wasn’t spotless but it also wasn’t filthy. It was more of what you would expect from a “lived in” home. But wouldn’t stop me from staying there again. Also, the internet password was a little hard to find as the guest book has outdated information. But once the password was found all was well.
