Great time to spend with friends, enjoyed the cabin while it was rainy and took a short drive to some awesome hikes and water falls when the weather was nice.

My family celebrated my dad’s 80th birthday at this mountain cabin. We had a lot of family time. The cabin was beautiful and spacious. There was enough room for all 12 of us.

The cabin was absolutely wonderful! When we arrived the caretaker of the house was there to meet us. She had been able to get the tree out but had not been able to decorate it yet and asked if we would like to. We were so excited to be able to decorate the tree and the rest of the cabin. There was an issue with the hot tub but she called and did some trouble-shooting and got it fixed for us before she left the property. We truly appreciate her extra effort to make sure that we had every amenity available to us. The kitchen is well equipped and had so much room for what we brought with us and the bedrooms are enormous. There are some other cabins close by but we never even knew that they were there. We are talking about booking it again for a family get-away in the near future.

Negatives: Needs a little more attention to cleaning. (Ceiling fan was loaded with dust, we cleaned a couple for you) A little cosmetic attention in the bathtub area around the tub and ceiling to hide water damageand possible and questionable mold. Loft bath had a broken tolit paper holder. A bowl (red one) need to be replaced due to a huge crack down the side we didnt see untilk our contints start coming out the side. Lots of game parts missing. However, the cabin was well stocked and very beautiful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and grateful for the owner sharing their home with us. We took down all sheets and towels and started a load before leaving and did a load of towells and put away.
Ps...we sent videos to the owner saying thank you. Hopefully they can atill be reviewed if you disnt see them. Thank you again for sharing your home. And we did sign the quest book too.
