Great condo for a long wknd.

Our family of four had a great time staying at the cabin. Everything was super clean and as listed on site. We had a little trouble getting ahold of property management a few times. The upstairs bed is a little hard but slept okay. The bathroom water runs so I hope someone is aware so they can get that fixed. Otherwise, A+ and would definitely stay here again.

I would not recommend this property or bb vacation rentals as they would not resolve the issue once notified. Seems like this is a regular ongoing problem/occurrence.

Great for a rustic weekend getaway

I bought items based on the description (no salt and pepper, starter amount of dish soap, etc.) but was pleasantly surprised that the house was way more equipped than stated in the listing. It was perfect for a short getaway for me, my husband and toddler - minus the stairs (my daughter loves to run up them), it’s very kid friendly. I would say my one and only complaint would be the master bedroom mattress. It was way too hard for my liking but that wouldn’t defer me from coming back.

Peaceful Overnight stay in the Mountains

This place was very clean, smelled nice and it looked like the pictures online which was great because sometimes that is not always the case. When I booked the unit they reassured me that we could check in at 1pm, we arrived at the office at 1:45pm and it wasn't ready which was frustrating. They had some nice toys in the closet which was great since we didn't bring anything for the kids. Everything was as advertised in the unit. It was easy to find, and very close to Bear Mountain. The neighborhood was very peaceful and quiet. It was listed as a family friendly place but a word of caution about a few safety hazards if you have kids under 5. The most serious is that the bars on the bedroom loft balcony are very far apart, and a child could have easily fallen through so we had to be careful. Since we were there for 1 night it wasn't a big deal to keep them out of the loft. The stairs are a little wonky and a there is a exposed lightbulb in the bunkbed room. The unit had a nice selection videos,magazines, direct tv and wifi signal was strong. Very cozy and peaceful.
