Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is the second time we have stayed here and we loved it. It’s 2 families with kids ranging from 16-8 and everyone had something to do. On top of all the games the place already had we brought games and puzzles to play as well. They even had a separate table for us to build our puzzles on! The big kids loved climbing the “big” mountain while the little kids loved climbing the “mountain” next to the driveway. It’s a great vacation to be able spend time with your older kids because you don’t need to leave the house. We hope to be back next year and future years to come to continue to make memories with our kids.

The view gave us many moments of beautiful sunrises and sunsets and in between. Our "Littles" gave the home theatre entertainment area a perfect 10. The curvy road up the mountain was a bit of a challenge but beautiful with this gorgeous mountain home awaiting 4000' up. For those who need wifi, (and we did) the service was very slow at best. This home was very well equipped for those who like to cook in and it was very clean. A most enjoyable stay!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This cabin was perfect for our intimate wedding. Very clean. Family meals were easy with the huge fridge, extended table, and dishes/pans, etc. The downstairs theatre, dart board, pool table, and mini kitchen were great for the bachelor party. The regular and pull-out beds were comfortable. The master bedroom closet was huge for the bride and bridesmaid dresses. The chapel-like A-frame window, porches, loft, stairs, etc were picture-perfect spots. No hot tub, but the garden tub and walk-in shower were nice. Difficult to find on steep, winding roads, but worth it for the beautiful views.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family of eight really enjoyed our stay. The cabin is very spacious and the location was gorgeous. No other cabins are right on top of you so you feel secluded with plenty of privacy though neighbors were not too far. The road to the cabin is steep in areas but all were paved and I found it easy to maneuver. The cabin really has everything you need- just bring your own blankets due to Covid. It was very clean but could use a couple of updates/ maintenance though. The legs were loose on several chairs but we tightened them- there was even basic tools available. We also had to tighten towel bars in the bathrooms. There’s a small sitting area/ fire pit at the bottom of the yard but we did not use it since the access to it is poor. Even the young ones had trouble getting down there. Despite these minor issues we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We even stayed in a couple of days just to enjoy the cabin. In fact we didn’t want to leave! We would definitely stay here again.

Our family met at this cabin for a much needed getaway. It is a beautiful cabin with everything you could possibly need or want. We had a wonderful week and plan to come back for our next family trip.

View was great. Kitchen well stocked except we did not find a blender. This app s really a 3 bedroom as the 4th bedroom sleeper sofa was not comfortable. Our friends went to Walmart and vbought a queen size air mattress. Also their must be neighbors who don’t like having a rental propert nearby as we got reported for having music too loud. We didn’t / never gave my music on. We will not sray there again because we never got an apology. That’s not to say the house and experience was bad, it’s that I can afford to stay elsewhere and our entire group felt disrespected

We stayed here because we wanted to go Snow tubing but it was closed due to the weather. But we had a great time in the house. There was so much to much. We played pool, played games, watched movies in the theater room. The house is huge and beautiful. I would definitely stay here again!

I brought my family to do tbt polar express and we stayed here. Was a Great getaway. It is a beautiful home and close to many things. I would say if it is icy or snowy you will want to stay at the house because the roads are quite steep and narrow.
