Perfect for our long weekend getaway!

We loved this place. It was so quiet and there was so much to do despite it raining most of our stay. Our hike to the waterfall was lovely. There are beautiful fish in the lake. The kids loved the game room! Adults loved the hot tub! We would definitely stay again!

Relaxing Memorial Day Weekend Vacation

Everything about the property is exactly as advertised. My family enjoyed sitting outside, kayaking in the lake, relaxing in the hot tub, and gathering for dinners and lunches. The hosts are extremely accommodating and very responsive.

3rd time staying

This was our 3rd time booking this cabin as always it was a blast we took our daughter and 4 of her friends up for her “8th grade grad party” in the two days we were there we caught over 75 bass,swam in the pond the kids enjoyed the hot tub and hung around the fire. We also tryed to hike up the creek to the water fall again but with all the rain we got this year the banks were super washed out and had trees laying over it so we had to turn around. The only thing different about this stay apart from the two other times we were here was the game room. It was in really rough shape (assuming from other guests ruining the games) the air hockey table was broken and doesn’t turn on, basket ball game someone snapped the metal railing on it so it no longer stand up correctly, foosball table is about ready to fall over and some of the other games have problems as well it could definitely use some TLC down there so the kids were alittle let down this time around. But regardless of the game room everyone had a great time! The host was very responsive as always and let us check in early I still highly recommend booking this place if your planning a weekend getaway it’s 100% worth it thank you again Tracey for letting us stay I’m sure we will be back for a 4th time around!

Family Ski Weekend -

This was our 3rd consecutive year staying at Skyfall. The property is amazing and accommodates a wide range of ages. My husband and I hold down the fort, babysitting the younger grandchildren while our kids and older grandkids ski. The proximity to Elk Mountain is great and allows us to serve as ski valets. The apres ski activities at Skyfall are the best and allow people to spread out - hot tub-video games in loft and game room in basement. LOve Skyfall

Awesome time

We checked in on Friday and checked out on Monday everything was clean and ready for us we swam in the pond, did a bunch of fishing (bass were biting before dark every night) we hiked to the little water fall on the property, and celebrated my daughters 13th birthday with family, had a big sea food boil enough to feed an army and made enough memories to last a life time! We were here in February and had to come back in the summer time there’s no other words to say other then we love it! I’m sure we will be back in the future. Thanks for everything Tracey - the Murray family

Family Fun at Skyfall

Skyfall was a wonderful location to reconnect with family. The lake and watercraft were enjoyed by all! The fantastic game room was especially enjoyed during down times. We enjoyed hiking the property but never did find the waterfall. Maybe next time! Wonderful memories were made at Skyfall!

Better then the first time

After are one week family vacation last year everyone decided we had to return the following year. This vacation spot is a hidden gem! It is so peaceful and relaxing which is what vacation should be. We definitely will be returning in the near future. The game room is great for the less desirable weather but perfect to end your night if you’re not already outside enjoying the camp fire roasting marshmallows. So much to do and enjoy which everything is provided for you to do. Just to name a few there is Fishing, boating, playing cornhole and don’t forget soaking in the hot tub and so much more! You will not regret renting this property unless you pass the opportunity to stay there.

Enjoyed by entire family

Beautiful blue skies and shining lake were perfect. Small lake just big enough for grandkids to explore in paddleboat or kayak on their own while parents got a chance to sit on the deck and relax or read. House very nicely appointed and well supplied. Two seperate living spaces great feature. Owners readily available and anxious to please. Family split up to explore woods and find waterfall, go play golf and drive to kids play center (30 mins away). Only drawback was feral cat who sat on deck furniture and hung around to be fed. Cat set off family member's allergies.

Fantastic ski weekend at Skyfall

Our ski weekend at SkyFall was fantastic! The main house was beautifully decorated in log cabin style with open beams and an awesome center fireplace...well-stocked kitchen and large comfortable family room for gathering. We enjoyed the game room, lots of games to choose from! It was nice to have the separate carriage house, which was also very nicely decorated and very comfortable! The property is amazing!!! we enjoyed sitting out on the back deck, looking out over the pond and star-gazing...very peaceful! Tracy and Dusty provided detailed information about the house and the area which was very helpful, and they were very responsive with any questions we had. Will definitely come back for a future ski weekend, maybe even a summer vacation to enjoy the property and the pond!

Skyfall 2

We stayed at Skyfall exactly one year ago for our family ski weekend at Elk. This year when we finally got it together, everyone insisted on returning to this wonder property. Thankfully, our dates were still open. It did not disappoint. The coziness of the main house is tough to beat. Fireplace is amazing. Loft space for kids and tweens with the video games is a go to. The basement game room has something for everyone and ,along with the hot tub, satisfies all ages. The privacy of the 70 acres surrounded by nature is calming and revitalizing

Petersen’s

From the moment we pulled up the driveway, we knew we made a great choice. The beautiful little lake was an eye catcher.The houses were perfect for our family.Plenty of space for kids to play and adults to gather with a glass of wine on the deck.Both a blue heron and a beautiful bald eagle were part of our evening attractions.We all went for a hike to the falls one afternoon,sat on the rocks and had lunch and enjoyed the serenity of the woods and sounds of the water. While the rest of the week we just enjoyed the lake,kyacking,fishing and floating around soaking up the sun and all that surrounded us .We loved it so much,we are booking for next year..Thank you,Tracy and Dusty for being awesome host..
