This house is AMAZING. I have stayed in many mountain homes across the county, and none have the expansive views this one does. Very large home with beautiful furniture and decorations.

The home is beautiful. However the home does not sleep 8; only 6. I was a little surprised at some of the amenities the home did not have such as an iron for example and few other things that made the stay a little annoying. The views are beautiful. Checking in was easy. The owner communicated with me promptly when I had a concern and they always tried to remedy the situation. They were very nice. All that being said I would definitely stay here again but I'd just be aware of the bedrooms and how many they sleep.

Thank you so much for your review! We have taken everything into consideration as this is how we can create a better experience for others! We are going to bring a fouton to bring into the basement to better sleep 2 extra people! We will also buy an iron for the cabin so that we can better accommodate you in the future! We hope to be able to host you guys again and so glad you had a good stay overall!
