Quaint cabin in Moonridge

Cute cabin with a large fenced yard! Perfect for our party of 2 plus our dog. Everything was quick and easy with cool cabin communications. Location was safe and very close to ski area and the village. Walking distance to coffee and breakfast on Moonridge too. Cabin could use a few updates based on age. IE: fresh coat of interior paint for scuff marks, better lighting, repair on kitchen bench and bathroom updates. Upstairs flooring is still carpet yet it was clean. Would recommend for price & location. Thanks Cool Cabins for a fun presidents weekend!

Disappointing Accommodations

The accommodations were ok. Cabin could use a good cleaning and better lighting. The backyard even though fenced in and good for pets had foot high grass which needed to be mowed. Being able to connect to a WIFI would also make this cabin more desirable. Unfortunately will not be on my list as a future rental.

Cool Cabin Company Is Very Communicative

This wasn't the initial cabin I had booked. We were switched a week before our arrival date and chose this cabin from the alternate options provided. This cabin was a bit worn down and some of the blankets were dirty and so were some of the dishes upon arrival. The TV had problems with the streaming services.The outdoor scenery of the cabin is beautiful during the day time, but the lighting inside gets a bit gloomy once nighttime hits. The bunk bed creaked a lot and there was a smell to the rooms. Overall, I wouldn't choose this cabin again, but I would book with the company again because of how communicative they were and how easy they made the booking/check-in/ and check out process. They always answers any questions I had in a very timely manner.
