What a charming place! Every room in the house has a view. It's close to town but still feels isolated. The deck is an outstanding place to start the morning with a cup of coffee. Loved all the games...kept the kids entertained.

Great cabin with lots of room for an extra large family or two! It was more than our small bookclub needed, but we had a lovely time. The location is perfect and it was so quiet! The beds are super comfy. The jacuzzi wasn’t as inviting as the pictures indicate, but we still would recommend.

Very spacious, comfortable home high up a very steep hill with a gorgeous view of the mountain. Many places for a large family to sleep and 'get away from each other'. Saw coyotes on the property and nearby daily, so please be aware if you have small dogs....Keep on a leash at dawn and dusk. Good communication with owners/managers.

4/10 Poor

Not prepared for stay

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property was not prepared for our stay. With the spa requiring service, the septic tank requiring to be pumped resulting in multiple days of toilet leaking and being unable to use the showers or toilet until septic tank was pumped. The property management team was fair with communicating each problem and was fairly prompt in responding to it. But it was a major inconvenience that these problems weren’t addressed prior to our stay. The home is beautiful and in a good location.

The house was furnished with everything we needed. So many bed options for our family. I could tell from the photos that some of the rooms had no curtains so I knew we’d be waking up at 7:30. It’s up in the hills above town. We played a lot of pool; that was a lot of fun. The deck and views were awesome. The hot tub was nice and clean and so peaceful at night. My husband accidentally left his tablet behind and they found it and sent it to us quickly for a reasonable price. Great house, great value, so peaceful.

Great Cabin, Better View!

Had a great time at this cabin! It was easy to get to and a quick drive to the center of town. The views from the patio were fantastic and despite having a large group we never felt cramped. Definitely recommend for a weekend getaway!

Fabulous Snowy Getaway

Our group had a wonderful time in this beautiful mountain home. It had everything you need for a lovely weekend getaway with friends. The hot tub was perfect for the cold wintry weather. The beds were super comfortable. And the abundance of games, pool table and shuffleboard added some much needed competition amongst friends. We would definitely recommend.

Great Experience

We had a great stay in the Moonlight mountain retreat! We did relax in the hot tub, played Billiard and enjoyed the views. There were just some minors issues that I rated it with 4 stars.

80th Birthday celebration

We had a great time celebrating at this beautiful home. The view was perfect. The slippery Ivey road at the top of the hill was the only issue we experienced.

Great nature retreat for a friend group!

Went here with my book club and it offered the nature and serenity we were looking for. Expect the property manager contacts to potentially take a few hours to answer questions on the weekend - but overall they offered a straightforward check in and check out process and I appreciated their binder in the living room as a reference for house rules!

Great house for extended family

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beautiful home and lovely deck area. House in very good condition inside and out. Spa, pool table and game room all were used and enjoyed. The road coming in to the house needs some repairs, but overall a wonderful place for 10 people. We never felt cramped or crowded.

Fun Family Weekend

The house was amazing. Our group of 10 had plenty of room to share meals and hang out on the deck with more than enough seating. The kitchen had everything we needed to make full meals, even the pots and pans were really nice. Most of the time in Rentals the pots are horrible. We had a great time at the property, would definitely return.

We had a lovely long weekend. Adrien was very attentive to our needs. He brought another BBQ and even found us 2 pool cue sticks.The windows could use some curtains to block the early morning sun.My adult children want to do this every year to celebrate my husbands birthday.It was a little difficult to find, the “ blue sign arrow” was placed at a odd angle so the turn was unclear.
