Great Location!

The location of the cabin was great! Close to the village and Alpine Slides. Very clean and perfect for someone who doesnt like to do much cooking. There was not much counter space at all. Thats about the only negative thing i can say about this place. I would definitely go back to this cabin again.

Cozy cabin

My husband and I celebrated his birthday over Memorial Day weekend. Our stay in this cabin was great, super cozy in a quiet mountain community. We did have a couple of issues. The cabin was not cleaned throughly as we found what appeared to be pieces of a broken mug, marshmallows, and crumbs on the floor. The floors were dirty as were the carpets. There was also hair in the shower. Another issue was with the heater turning on at night. The thermostat was offline which resulted in us having to call late at night for maintenance to come out to shut it off. We reported our concerns and were told someone would contact us to compensate us for these inconveniences, however, no call yet. Overall, it was a great stay. The company who manages the cabin did communicate well and responded promptly to my messages. Although, we never heard back after our departure regarding the issues we encountered which was disappointing.
