Perfectly Relaxing

We had an amazing week at the cabin. Everything was beautiful. Amazing stars at night, the hiking trails were well maintained and gave us all hours of fun. A beautiful creek that we explored. The view is amazing. We cooked sooo many meals at the firepit, and listened to coyotes in the evenings. Will 100% be back!

Amazing cabin!!

We didn’t know what to expect when we got there. When we walked in it was so comfy I could see the surprise in my family face on how nice the place was so it was a great feeling for me as well. Stayed for 2 night wish we had more Time we would have stayed longer. The cabin was perfect the veiw was amazing and at night the stars were like looking at a picture I have never seen them so nright! Our overall experience was perfect couldn’t ask for a better couple of days just what we needed!!!!

Thanksgiving Getaway

My mom, my sister, myself and my 2 daughters stayed 2 nights and spend Thanksgiving Day at the Issi. The cabin was gorgeous! I’ve never been on a trip with my mom and sister before so this was special for us. The cabin was more than we imagined. The cabin was fully stocked with everything and more! It was clean. Views are astounding. We arrived at night so we had a hard time finding the cabin but the manager was very responsive and helpful. We hope to return someday soon.

Great Property and Location to get away

We really enjoyed our stay in the Issi. Lots of space for our pups to run, beautiful property and very relaxing. Lots of hiking and nature! The ONLY negatives—couldn’t get the Wi-Fi on the TV to connect, Wi-Fi was spotty at best. Also the air hockey table was broken. About 35 mins from Hochatown so close enough to get there and far enough to feel out of town.

VIEWS for miles!

We stayed here over NYE with 2 adults, 3 teenagers, a toddler and a dog. It was perfect! The loft area was great for teens, the views were absolutely stunning! Plenty of space for everyone. There are hiking trails nearby walking distance, the river can be heard from the back patio. There is another smaller cabin close by but not too close, would be great for a larger group to book both cabins. My toddler loved the playground. We couldn't figure out the surround sound but it was not a big deal. Overall it was a great stay.

Beautiful view!

This cabin is very rural which provides lots of privacy. (There is a Dollar General close by but that’s about it.) The sunsets from the back porch were out favorite thing each day! The cabin especially the kitchen is well stocked with all things that we needed, we stocked the fridge and enjoyed most of our meals at the cabin. The only negatives we had were that the dishwasher doesn’t work and the bath towels had a sour smell, we had to re-wash everything.

Hey Michael, glad you enjoyed your stay. I checked the dishwasher and seems to be working fine so I’m not sure what the issue was there. I also talked to my cleaner about the towels. Thanks for staying and for the review.

Quick trip from home

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this cabin. The views were beautiful. The only thing I wished was different was that the bushes in the back had been cleared for an accurate scenic view. We only live 2 1/2 hours away from this cabin and definitely would comeback. We brought our two Australian shepherds and they loved it here. There is rubbing alcohol in the bathroom for potential tick bites, which was a nice gesture of the host. Thankfully, our dogs are protected from flea tick and worms, but if yours or not be aware that there are lots of ticks in the tall grass in the backyard. We stayed over Fourth of July and watch the fireworks from over the mountains and really enjoyed roasting s’mores over the fire. There was firestarter, charcoal, and Lighter fluid already stocked, which was also a very nice gesture. 10/10 we definitely will be back.

Nice but not exactly what we expected.

We anticipated a bit of open area for the kids to run and play, but found we were sharing the property with other cabins and most of the area was woods. The grill was not clean, so we had to clean it well before cooking on it. One of the loft beds looked dirty upon arrival. There were spider webs in various places and the only lighter there to light the firepit was practically empty. The internet was very spotty, and in the evenings, we were blinded by the setting sun through the kitchen window as we were preparing dinner. It was a beautiful view, but seriously needed some blinds on that window. Should be noted the stairs to get up to the loft are very steep and slim. Overall, it was a nice escape. Very beautiful and peaceful. The property manager was easy to contact and responded promptly to any questions or concerns. There were games to play inside to entertain the kids as well.
