We came up for a family vacation to go white water rafting. The house was the perfect home base since it was close to everything we wanted to do. The view was beautiful and the rooms were perfect for us. Couldn't have asked for a better stay.

Cabin was nice and it had a nice view. Cabin was a little plain on the inside but was clean so that was good. Driveway and road to get to the house was pretty steep and I wish that was mentioned in the listing. There’s also not enough room to comfortably turn your car around in the drive so you have to back down the drive. Overall I enjoyed my stay there.

Was mostly happy, but very bummed about the do not use signs on the fireplaces. It is advertised as a feature on the listing, which feels like false advertising if we can't use them. Wife was looking forward to a cozy fire on our anniversary, and the temperature was fitting. Everything else was great, but that miffed us a bit.
