Remote location with great views

Property was well maintained and clean. The owners were super responsive and even took a late night call when we couldn’t find where to go due to rain and dense fog. Loved the views and the space. Plan to stay here again.

Secluded & Great Views

If you want a quiet getaway in the woods (on top of a mountain actually) then you will love this property. The views are breathtaking from the front porch. The house is nice and comfortable. I will say the couch has seen better days, but the indoor fireplace was a nice touch. There is not wood provided for the outdoor fire pit FYI. The property managers were responsive and helpful to our questions. I will caution the drive leading up to the house is tricky and somewhat difficult to find-with huge drop offs to the side of you. And then there’s the driveway to the house. Very steep with a curve and again a drop off to the left of you. Definitely recommend 4wheel drive or a big car that can handle it. It was a bit daunting. Other than that, we had a nice stay and the dogs loved it too!

Beautiful View

Getting to the cabin is an adventure. Fortunately our map continued to work for the full drive up the steep, gravel roads. If not, we may not have found it with very limited markings along the way. Be aware that it seems to take a vehicle with a little more umph to get up to the cabin and should have higher clearance. Once at the cabin, getting in was easy. Lighting is one area that lost points for the stay. The main living area is dark with minimal lighting. There were three of us for the stay and we were only alotted 3 towels for the entire stay meaning use multiple times or do laundry while your on vacation. The cabin itself is very nice and comfortable. Overall, we did enjoy our stay but thought a little more forewarning regarding the drive was necessary.
