Very neat place to stay. Host was very helpful and communicated very well. The entire area lost power for about 24 hours and the host helped us by bringing water and candles. Our family had a great time during our stay. Highly recommend.

Our goal was to stay a few days at a mountain cabin getaway, where the weather would be cool during the middle of the summer and a place where we could relax. This property certainly fit the bill. It was quiet, comfortable had everything we needed for simple cooking in the kitchen and on the grill. The bedrooms were also comfortable and the HVAC and plumbing all worked fine.

Excellent cabin for price

Nice cozy cabin with lovely lake view that comfortably slept our 5 adults. Upstairs bathroom roof pitch is low for adults but would work great for kids.
