About this property

Escape to this stunning cabin nestled in the mountains of Garden Valley, surrounded by natural beauty and outdoor adventure. Perfect for families seeking a peaceful retreat, our spacious 2600 square foot property offers 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.

Take in the breathtaking views of the surrounding woods through the large windows and explore the private 2.5 acres of naturally wooded backyard, complete with a firepit, multiple trails, and sledding hills. In the winter, enjoy sledding down the hills with the provided sleds and tubes . Or in summer simply relax and take in the serenity of the surroundings. Enjoy a beautiful campfire on a starry night. 4 wheel drive is needed in the winter.

Lots of activities for kids! Foosball table, games, and a custom made full-size arcade! (with dozens of preloaded classic NES, SNES, and Sega games). We love board games and puzzles, and it comes equipped with lots of both.

The cabin comes with high-speed internet - great for movies and shows on the large flat screen TV. The primary bedroom has an office nook with 2 screens, keyboard and mouse in case you need to get some work in over your stay.

Our summer favorites:
* A campfire after sunset
* Reading a good book on the deck in the morning
* Ping pong and foosball tournaments
* Summer barbeque on the deck
* Looking for wild strawberries in the backyard forest
* Relaxing in the sunroom with the backyard view
* Stargazing in the backyard after sundown
* Floating the Middlefork river (you can find inner tubes in the garage)
* ATV or dirt bikes the nearby trails (you can rent ATVs in Crouch)

Our winter favorites:
* Sledding in the backyard forest (we have custom designed sledding hills!)
* Building snow caves
* Watching the snowfall from the sunroom
* Cozying up near the pellet stove and reading a good book
* Sledding at Terrace Lakes hill

The cabin is equipped with A/C and forced air for heat, as well as a pellet stove and fireplace for added comfort and warmth. Located close to Garden Valley's many attractions, including hiking, rafting, floating the river, golfing, hotspring pools, snowmobiling, ATVs, cross-country skiing and more, you'll never run out of things to do. Don't miss this opportunity for a truly unforgettable vacation experience.

We hope you love our cabin as much as we do!

Boys b-day weekend

Gorgeous View!

My family and I really loved staying at this cabin! Our kids are 12, 16 and 18 and they enjoyed all the fun things to do at the cabin, in Crouch and at the Terrace Lakes Resort. My husband and I especially enjoyed sitting around the pellet stove in the evenings. The view from the sunroom is spectacular. The cabin is very spacious so we all have plenty of room to spread out. The hosts were extremely responsive and very helpful even before we left for our trip.
