Amazing views in a very nice house. Plenty of room in a relaxing setting.

We stayed for a long weekend and enjoyed every minute of our stay. The amenities are quite impressive considering the remote location. Peace and quiet around a fire was our favorite part other than the views from above the clouds.

Picturesque, relaxing, and peaceful

The moment we arrived, we were awestruck by the view outdoors and amazed what we saw indoors. The cabin is comfortable with all of the comforts of home. Working with Michelle and Danielle was easy, and they were professional. The description on the Vrbo website was quite accurate. We have not returned to a vacation spot in the past, yet this is one we plan to revisit again!

3rd Stay, Still 5 star, awesome views, beautiful property

This was my 3rd stay at "Among the Peaks", it feels like home rather than a vacation spot. The hosts of this property are amazing, they checked up on us throughout our stay. They seem more like friends than VRBO hosts. Every year I witness beautiful sunsets from the front porch and beautiful sunrise from the side porch. It really is a different picture every day. The cabin itself has always been clean upon my arrival, you can smell the freshness in all the bed and bath linens. The kitchen is well stocked with anything you may need. I will be back next year for my 4th stay.

What a view!

I have to say, that is one of the nicest views I have seen in a while. Being able to see a 180 degree view of the mountains was awesome! We went in August to see the Perseids Meteor Shower and when the sky was clear they were awesome! The fog in the morning was a bit eerie, but that just added to the adventure. We stayed on the porch/patio for the majority of our time there. Really enjoyed it! The final part of the drive was not quite as bad as some folks had said, just take it slow and steady and you will have no issues. Thanks for having us!

Outstanding property!

My group thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely house. Upon arrival it was clean and well organized. Everything worked well and allowed everyone to enjoy the drip-dead gorgeous views all around. The house is isolated so be sure to have everything you need or you’ll have to drive a while to get to a store, but that’s what we wanted so it wasn’t an issue for us. We picked up food beforehand and we’re just fine. The only issue was a minor one: the remote for the living room TV could not be found and the management company did not respond to our email. This didn’t really interfere with our real appreciation for this gorgeous rental, however.

Worth it just for the views! Wow!!!

We booked this place due to the photos of the views, and we were not disappointed! Wow! Absolutely stunning! The sunsets are awesome, but you have to get up and take in the early morning views too. Just breathtaking! The cabin itself is very charming, and we especially enjoyed the fireplace. There were only two of us, so we didn’t use the upstairs, but the main floor was very comfortable. The master bath was nice, and the bath towels thick and soft. We used the grill once but did not use the outdoor fire pit. The listing said the master suite had a king size bed when we booked it, but that was not the case when we arrived. However, I contacted the management team about this and they fixed the listing immediately. If they’re reading this, hopefully they’ll also correct the page in the binder of info in the cabin. :-) I also suggested larger cutting boards for food prep, a large sauce/frying pan with lid, and some decent sized sealable food storage containers for leftovers would make it a more “fully stocked” kitchen. I do have to say, these ladies were very good about communication in general. They answered every question and followed up as needed very quickly. The drive on the gravel road up to the cabin was “interesting,” but my husband handled it just fine and the views are absolutely worth it! No regrets about booking this dreamy place, and seeing a bright “shooting star” as we gazed at the star-filled sky one night was an extra bonus. :-)

Amazing place and hosts!

The beautiful pictures of the house and scenery don't do it justice to being there in person! Everything was exactly as described (actually better!), and the house has everything needed for a wonderful stay. The host's communication was exceptional. Check in and out was very simple and the hosts provide great detail on the entire process. We can't wait to stay here or one of their other amazing properties.

An Anniversary Trip

This property fit our needs quite perfectly. It is isolated, with no other humans around to make noise or have pets bothering us. The quiet combined with the mountain breezes and the breathtaking views fills the soul. We ate all our meals out on the deck and sat outside until it was time for bed each night. The house was immaculate and comfortable. We listened to the North Toe River in the valley as well as the train whistle as it wound its way through the mountains. Heaven. We spent some time on the Parkway and visited a few places. If I had any suggestion at all it would be for a chaise on the side deck to luxuriate in all that mountain air and views. I would take a little afternoon nap right there. I almost forgot to mention that we were lucky enough to see a mama bear and her two cubs and they put on a show for us! What a great trip.

Loved the cabin, wish we could live there among the views. Had everything we needed, kitchen well stocked, plus essentials that make a trip comfortable and easy. Bed and furniture comfortable. The only suggestion we had was to label the multiple light switches in kitchen and living room; we never could figure out the one kitchen light. Property manager communication excellent. We hope to come back some day.

Wonderful Experience

The view was amazing. The property was clean and secluded. We had a fantastic trip and would recommend this place to anyone. Be aware the driveway up the the house is a pretty steep gravel driveway about .5 mile long. I made it up and down in my Mini Cooper, but if you have an option of bringing a 4wd vehicle, I would recommend to do so just in case. Overall, a rememberable vacation!

Wow Wow Wow

Do not pass this one up. The pictures don't do it justice. Absolutely gorgeous views. Cabin was just what we needed. Plenty of room for the 4 of us. The gravel road leading up to the cabin is pretty exciting (pretty much one lane and steep). The best I could figure is it is around a 600 ft. climb in 8 tenths of a mile. Saw deer almost every day. We will hopefully be back sooner than later.
