Beautiful Views!

The home had huge picture windows that over-looked a beautiful mountain range. The photos online do not do it justice. Additionally, the beds were comfy, and the entire house was cozy. However -- bring your own wine opener, chip clips, etc. as they are not included in the home.

Great view

We had a wonderful stay at Black Bear cabin. It was clean and had everything that we needed except an ironing board/iron(which we purchased/left the board there). Close to everywhere we wanted to go. My only suggestion is that you mention the need for All wheel/4 wheel drive to get there as the road is steep, dirt/gravel with sharp turns. We would rent again!!

Perfect mountain cabin

Absolutely beautiful home! Very clean, well equipped cabin. Kitchen had everything we needed, quality appliances, cookware, dishes, etc. Rooms were spacious, tastefully decorated, and comfortable. Sunsets from deck were amazing. Quiet neighborhood. Would book again hands down and discontinue search for anything finer. I would recommend nothing larger than a crossover vehicle or small pickup to turn around in driveway. There is certainly not enough room to turn an extended cab truck, Expedition, or long wheel base vehicle around safely on parking pad. Road to cabin is well maintained gravel.
