Wonderful getaway in the woods

This cabin was just what we were looking for! Beautiful views, lots and LOTS of space to run around, easy access to trails and so peaceful. We took the advice of the guide and visited Chet’s Place for dinner and visited the nearby lake. Both were great. My family and I had the most wonderful time and would love to return! 10/10 - would recommend!

Great Place for a Ski Weekend

This was my family’s second stay here and we’ve been happy each time. You can’t beat the cabin vibes with the great wood burning stove and the all wood interior. About 10 minutes from Elk. Restaurants in the area are decent, but don’t expect fancy. You’re in the mountains. Jia is incredibly responsive and a great host. We’re looking forward to next year already!

Visited family in area for Thanksgiving and hunting!!

The cabin was perfectly described! We were pleased with plenty of dry firewood and a small cozy woodstove! The kitchen was well stocked with the basics! Dishwasher worked great! Spacious area outside for our 4 year old to run around in! The stairs to the upper level were very steep but we knew about them before we rented! We have stayed at different homes each time we visit and this cabin was one of my favorites!!

About the host

Hosted by Jia

Jia (husband) and Li (wife) live in Florida for almost 30 years. Jia moved to Switzerland in the 80s to pursue his PhD in Lausanne. We lived in Switzerland for (6) years, during that time we were able to travel a lot by train through western Europe. After a brief time in Singapore we moved to Florida, where we currently live.

We love this property because of the rustic and cozy feel along with the beautiful mountain view. It’s the country getaway that we were looking for. We hope you'll enjoy this piece of paradise as much as we have

Why they chose this property

This property is very convenient to go to all local amenities. It provides a marvelous mountain view from the deck. All different activities are very close and accessible from the property, such as ski, hiking, snow mobile, sled, golf, fishing, boating, hunting, wild animal watching, or just sitting lazily in front of the wood burner during the winter or outside fire pit during the summer.

What makes this property unique

Very close to the Elk Mountain Ski Resort.

Direct access to the D&H trail system where you can walk, bike, cross country ski or snow mobile.

20 plus acres where you can snow sled, golf, or even hunting.

Not very big cabin, yet very comfortable to accommodate a family of up to 6 people.
