Mountain Home

There was plenty of space for the entire extended family. We enjoyed ourselves and were comfortable but it is an older home. The home was surface clean but if you look behind the doors there was a layer of dirt. We decided not to look behind the doors. Ha! The owners should consider updating the bedding. The bedspreads were old and the sheets were hard. Making this change would probably push this home to 5 stars. Overall it was a lovely stay and the location was perfect. We also loved the patio and the view!!

If you’re coming to the mountains for the views, this retreat is basically cheating. Hands down the best vantage point in town — the kind of panoramic scene that makes you stop mid-step, whisper “wow,” and immediately start taking photos like you’re trying to win National Geographic.Morning coffee on the deck? Unreal. Sunset? Spiritual experience. Night sky? You’ll swear you can see the Milky Way doing a little dance.Now… stepping inside the home is a totally different vibe.The best way I can describe it: the moment you walk in, it feels like grandma is about to offer you a Werther’s Original and ask if you’re “eating enough.” There’s a charming, cozy nostalgia to it… but also a strong “grandpa hasn’t updated a thing since 1997” energy.A few things clearly need some refreshing:some fixtures feel datedparts of the place show their agea couple updates would take this from retro to mountain lux real quickThat said — it’s clean and comfortable. If you can laugh a little and appreciate a place with personality, you’ll enjoy it.Bottom line:Come for the views. Stay for the peace. Accept that inside you’re living in a sweet grandma time capsule, and grandpa is politely refusing to replace anything that still “works fine.”Would I stay again? Yes — because of the view.

Thank you so much for sharing this thoughtful and vivid review. We are very glad you enjoyed the incredible views, peaceful setting, and overall comfort of the home. We are sorry that the interior felt dated and that some fixtures and areas showed their age, and we will look into each of these points. Your feedback about how a few updates could elevate the experience is very helpful, and we will review this carefully. We truly appreciate that you would stay again for the view and the atmosphere.

Wonderful cabin for making family memories

Cabin had nice bedrooms, with three bathrooms. Largest bedroom upstairs with a loft. No door for privacy but has your own space. One bedroom main floor which is convenient for older people or those with issues with stairs. 2 bedrooms downstairs with shared bath. Game room is wonderful with comfy couch. Lots of towels in every room. Some suggestions for improvement: TV main floor would be nice Batteries in all remotes Additional Wii games Clean grill

Family Get-To-Gather

Great house in a perfect location! We loved the layout and our group of 8 had more than enough room! The decks were a favorite gathering spot for coffee in the mornings and happy hour in the evenings!

Great weekend getaway!!!

Very nice property! Plenty of room for all 9 guests. We would definitely recommend!

This property was in a good location with beautiful views and had great space for all 9 of our family members. It was very clean, but needed some minor improvements, including fixing a sliding door in living room, a small leak on dishwasher and the dryers did not dry clothes well. However, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend and stay there again without hesitation. The house was well insulated.... while we were there we had over 20 inches of snow and temps in the low teens, but the house was always warm and cozy. You won’t be disappointed here!

Needs major repair

The cabin was clean and spacious but needs TLC. Most critical is the decks that are literally rotting away. Lots of nails and large splinters all over. Several posts were loose as well. We had children there and were concerned anytime they walked outside. The BBQ bottom was falling off and the propane tanks had rust all over them. We would not stay again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved our stay! A few minor things, faucet in the downstairs master bathroom didn't have much pressure, shower door in the hall bathroom downstairs didn't close good. Decks could use some paint. It would be nice to have tv's in the bedrooms. Takes too long to get $300 security deposit...that is the biggest complaint.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was lovely and very suited to our needs. It was clean and well-stocked. We had a serious plumbing issue that was really inconvenient, but the management company responded promptly and did their best to rectify it. The weather turned bad, so we spent more time at the house than we thought we would. However, it was a good place to be.
