Nice property
Very nice property with great views. Location is easy to get to, but recommend a vehicle that isn't low to the ground, it may scrape in some spots on the way up the gravel road. Would definitely stay again.

Gorgeous Mountain Views
Great location, great views, great times. We’ve stayed at many vrbo rental cabins over the years. Some of which are a bit of a hike to get up to. This cabin was perfectly located and was not hard to get to either. There was always a little park next to creek right down the road. Which was perfect for two restless kiddos after a 12 hour road trip. The cabin was still cutely decorated for Christmas. The beds and pillows were comfy. The only thing we were little weary about was the dining chairs. They are not suitable for larger guests. Other than that- truly amazing time and amazing cabin! Thank you

It’s fine
It’s a cute cabin. Porch is very nice. It was good for a work trip and not having to pay for it myself. A bit scary last mile up the mountain buts that’s a personal problem lol. It could definitely benefit from having a facelift. No tvs in the bedrooms is a big bummer for us who go to sleep with one on. Hot water runs out very quickly so make sure to time out showers between people with extra time. Master bed is hard as the floor, master shower has poor water pressure and needs new sliding doors. Water pressure in 2nd bath is good. Bring paper towels as they were not supplied and if you want better than 1/2 ply toilet paper you may want to bring your own.

The cabin is precious and scenery beautiful but we had no way to get in touch with the property manager or owners about issues. We had no sheets for the pullout bed, it stuck and would not fold back in and the power went out for over 12 hrs. These are minor things and we made do BUT no one returned our calls. One person called back and said they no longer worked for the rental company. Very frustrating and scary. If there was a serious issue there was no way to contact anyone. The owners left a note saying don't hesitate to contact but no email or phone number to do so. My emails from VRBO left a number for the owners but that was the person who no longer worked for them.

Family around the fire
This was the perfect place to stay and spend evenings around the fire. We loved that there was enough wood provided for multiple evenings, roasting marshmallows on the provided sticks, and space for five to sit around chatting. With two bedrooms and bath, the family had what was needed for the evening. Suggestion is to have one more red chair for the firepit--assume it recently needed to be replaced and just hadn't been yet :) Thanks to you and the property manager for being quick to respond during and after the rental process.

Overall ok experience
Location and view is good but the drive way is not good. Our car got stuck when going down the hill to the Cabin. Probably not safe for kids since there is no fence. Bathroom are not clean. Bathroom can be more cleaner. We had so much hope grilling but grill is all rusty, as soon as we open the grill we closed it. Overall ok experience.
