The cabins were clean, attractive and had a good view of the lake. They were nice-sized and had plenty of dishes and cookware.

Everything is as advertised, clean, organized, and functional place; all the essentials (except for washer and dryer). The views to the lake and the mountains, right from your bedroom are breathtaking.

Mountain perfection!

We completely enjoyed our stay at Wolf Cabin! The cabin was the perfect size for myself, my husband and our two dogs. The bed was very comfy and the cabin is stocked with all the essentials. The cabin is in an ideal location for adventure and the Twin Lames area itself is awesome. We’d definitely stay here again.

Super cozy with great views

We had a nice quick stay here, with some friends staying in one of the other cabins. It was really nice to have our own space and have friends to hang out with just a few steps away. We enjoyed the views of the lake and mountains, and though it's a studio-style space, it feels pretty open and spacious.

To-Die-For View !!

Very nice cabin! It was perfect for 2! The view went way beyond my expectations. The cabin has 2 sliding doors facing Twin Lakes and the mountains at a high elevation so it is absolutely stunning.

We had a great time at this cabin. The main living area is one big open room with sliding glass doors onto the patio, so you get the Twin Lakes view from inside or out there, and the setting is really peaceful. Parking and access were easy, and it is a short trip down to the lake for paddling, which we loved.Two honest notes for future guests. It is cozy and comfortable but more rustic than polished, and the cleaning was a little uneven. The coffee maker needed a good wipe down before we used it, and a few other spots could have used a closer pass. The trash is a bear proof wooden box with cans inside, which makes sense out here but is a bit of a hassle.None of that stopped us from enjoying it, and we would happily come back. Come for the lake, the paddling, and the quiet, and just expect cozy and rustic over spotless.

Amazing views

Good property with just a few minor issues (lamps we couldn't figure out how to turn on, drawers that don't open, shower head designed for midgets, etc.) All of which was secondary to the breathtaking views - they were the high point of our stay!
Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024
Response from VrboOwner on 31 January 2025
It sounds like the views definitely made up for the small inconveniences! Sometimes it’s the little things, like figuring out lamps or dealing with stubborn drawers, that can be a bit annoying, but when you're surrounded by breathtaking views, it’s easy to let those slide. Hopefully, those little quirks are things the host can easily address to make future stays even more seamless!

Ok place - very quiet. Not real clean. Unusual place set up. Shower head very low and am 5.5. Just ok - would not return here. Very expensive for this low quality amenities

Amazing view, comfortable room

The stay was everything we hoped it would be. Well-prepared room with most needed kitchen utilities and appliances, absolutely fantastic mountain and sky view. TV worked great. Internet speed was sometimes spotty--consider that if you are relying on it heavily for remote work, but for casual daily use it was adequate, and anyway put the phone down and enjoy some nature! The approach includes some dirt roads, but even our little car did fine in good weather. In wintry or rainy conditions I would take seriously the recommendation for a vehicle with 4W D or AWD.

THIS is the place to stay in Twin Lakes!

I won't be able to say enough about this incredible property!!! The view is obviously breathtaking. The cabin is adorable, clean, well laid out, stocked, safe and so very very comfortable. We enjoyed quiet nights, comfortable sleeps, meals in the kitchen and a little light conversation with some of the other renters. It is also very conveniently located to the Inn, the General Store, the visitors center and many trails. We would most certainly stay here again. In fact - we are already planned for next year. I'd live here if I could! It is a WONDERFUL place to stay. Do not pass this by. #sothankful

Wow! The View!

This was a fun relaxing quiet spot for a few days. The best was waking up to the changing view. Early in the morning it was obliterated, then the sun started to burn off the clouds...just magical! The unit itself is a studio that works well for a couple. You aren't bothered by the people in the other units. There is a mega-house being built next door that might impact this tranquil setting. The outer shell is done so we weren't impacted by the construction which was limited to the interior while we were there. The air simpllcity folks were terrific communicators.
