My partner and I enjoyed a quick weekend trip here. No connectivity and no wifi was just what we needed. Great location close to hiking options!Be aware it’s well water and a four wheel drive vehicle is actually recommended for getting up that driveway. Great experience overall!

A beautiful get away with just enough room

Loved the location (20 minutes to most parks) and area. Not too secluded but just enough room for you to feel like you are getting away from it all. Such a fantastic stay.

It was a nice retreat

It was easy to find the cabin and I appreciated the extra wood available for purchase because we definitely didn’t bring enough.

Great and quick communication; had issues with the hot tub and did our best to get it resolved. It may have been because it's well water, but it was not very clean. Everything else was so comfortable and a lovely stay! Very close and accessible to hiking and food.

The host were friendly and amazing. I didn’t really need to contact the host about anything that’s how great and smooth the process was. The entire property was clean and with the money. Hot tub was fun. The place was very intimate my girlfriend and I we loved it. My only complaint was that the water in the sink and shower had a sulfur smell but besides that it’s worth the money.

We had a nice quiet getaway. The bungalow was clean and cozy. We enjoyed the privacy.The only downside was the hot tub was unusable. The cover was waterlogged and very heavy and the hot tub had a lot of Styrofoam floating in it.

Very peaceful, beautiful, and cozy place to stay!

We very much enjoyed our stay, the hot tub was perfect and clear. Beautiful little spot to stay, it’s secluded and has plenty of amenities. The only take away is there is absolutely no service or wifi; therefore, no way to contact anyone, I would recommend the host of the property to add a helpline/landline in case of emergency.

The little cabin was beautiful was a little disappointed when we first got there because there was no TV no Internet service however that turned out to be a huge blessing. It gave us the opportunity to disconnect from the Internet world and gave us a chance to reconnect with each other we had such a wonderful time. Thanks for having us.
