Very clean! Nice view! Very comfort mountain cabin. We enjoyed watching the bears. The whole time we were there, we were visited by a momma bear and her six cubs.

Location was perfect, house and amenities were great. Cleanliness could be improved, floors not mopped or spot mopped, interior paint is worn and needs updating, cobwebs as well. Also, would have been helpful to know the bbq grill did not work. It was in our plans to cookout on the back deck, but was unaware until we read the sharpe notes on the grill itself. Steaks had to be cooked inside instead.

Fools gold

I’m a wheelchair bound disabled veteran who found this cabin highly recommended, on verbo, but in reality I was highly disappointed by reality.. This was my last trip,due to health reasons and my family members are in their senior years also. This cabin is clean and beautiful - well set for the healthier lifestyle! As a result; we had to leave a day early, a true lesson to myself - also was supposed to be extended a veteran’s discount, but that didn’t happen. Big sigh all around!

The perfect retreat?

This is among the best VRBO's I've stayed in (and I've stayed in a few). The property management (Loriel and Adam) are easily the best I've ever stayed with. They go above and beyond! The house was PERFECT in every way. It was very clean, well kept and feature rich. The road leading to the cabin can be tricky if you're in a car, just take note of this and be mindful of the time of year and weather conditions. Loriel messaged me the day of our arrival and advised us of the weather and road conditions we may encounter and offered an alternate route up to the cabin that was much easier for a car (above and beyond!). Upon arrival, we walked in to a beautiful home that even had a Christmas tree lit up to welcome us in. The outdoor space is excellent for roasting marshmallows (we didn't get to because of the weather this time, but I anticipate a return to this cabin, even if only for roasting marshmallows). And the arrival and departure duties are among the easiest I've had in a rental. Oh, and this is a big deal... The beds! The beds are higher quality, very comfortable beds! There are no complaints from any of us for any reason whatsoever and we are already looking for a reason to come stay here again.
