This couple were excellent guests at Stairway to Haven! I accidentally clicked 4 stars, but they were absolutely stellar guests and we would LOVE to host them again anytime. We were so thrilled they chose to celebrate their anniversary with us, and we truly hope to welcome them back again soon. Thank you both for being such wonderful guests!

Absolutely loved this place! Peaches and Charlie were quick to respond from the time of booking until the end of our stay. The home was clean, beautifully decorated, incredibly comfortable, and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay! We will definitely be back soon!

Quiet weekend of fishing and hanging with friends.

Frigging awesome and as a bonus we caught some fish. Very clean, nicely appointed. Really a nice place. I think we ended up losing weight climbing those stairs. Dont let those stairs keep you away. Every bit worth the climb.

Hi Anne, thank you so much for the kind and well thought out review. I did those stairs when I met the owner to assist as a Co-host and I did have to stop talking to continue to walk up. But what a spectacular place to stay. Thank you so much for letting everyone else know!

Birthday weekend getaway

Oh. My. Goodness. What a cabin! It was SO clean. (Which is a big deal for this nurse.) The owners were SO easy to communicate with every time we had a question. They were also so accommodating by having coffee, snacks, drinks, and even an apple pie from the local farmers market. The game room was so fun and the hot tub was amazing.
