Pets:
We are glad that we offer a home where you can bring your pets along. However, in the year we’ve been renting, we have had numerous problems. Therefore we have the following policies:
Pets are not allowed on the beds or furniture.
Clean up after your pet if they go in the yard, there is a poop scooper usually on the deck.
We have a roll of green temporary fence on the corner of the front deck. If you like, this can be used to keep your pets on the deck. It attaches using the hooks on the rail and the house.
We also have two child gates inside if you would like to keep your pet on the main floor where there is no carpet.
It is imperative that you keep your dog(s) on a leash when outside. There are several (really nice) older people in our neighborhood who frequently walk their dogs without leashes, as well as guests in the main house with dogs sometimes.
If your pet goes to the bathroom on the carpet, clean it up or we will charge for professional cleaning.
Failure to follow these rules will result in a minimum $500 additional cleaning fee.

This cabin was spacious and pretty well stocked- in terms of kitchen equipment, towels, etc. The nice thing is the property allows pets, bad thing about that is there were several places with noticeable pet stains. We also couldn’t get in when we arrived. The code didn’t work and it took about half an hour to reach the owner. It was a difficult situation after traveling across country all day with young children because it was very late when we arrived and then couldn’t get in. Overall, good location and ample space for a big family.

WONDERFUL property for our group of 8! The main house was large enough for everyone to spread out but still felt cozy. We loved having all the amenities (especially the fireplaces, hot tub and game room) and the kitchen was AMAZING! Especially helpful to have two ovens when cooking for a large group. Loved how close the house is to Highlands even though it felt pretty remote. Thank you for sharing your beautiful house Marty!

We loved our stay at this cabin. It was so cozy and enjoyable and our family loved the time around the fireplaces, the hot tub, zip line, and so much more. Marty was a fabulous host. I highly recommend this cabin to anyone.

Wonderful large mountain home. Three master BR and a bunk room fit us perfectly. Cool weather allowed us to burn LOTS of wood at outdoor fireplace. Three indoor gas fireplaces were burned frequently. House was clean, kitchen was fabulous and Marty was very responsive. Book it.

Our family took a 5 day trip for vacation and stayed at Lotts of Sky. It was a nice house and the porches are AMAZING! We cooked most meals in the kitchen which was well sized and stocked with utensils. The weather was cool so we enjoyed the fireplace on the porch. We brought our dogs, so it was the perfect spot to escape for a few days with the whole family and fur babies. We look forward to returning!

11 of my family members stayed here for my sons wedding. We had a great time. The house was mountain rustic and comfortable. There were lots of games and a zip line which the 5 children loved. The owner was very responsive and easy to work with. We would rent it again.
