Staff extremely warm and friendly. Gorgeous views, close to Cumbres and Toltec train, quiet and peaceful. Room was clean, however facial tissue was almost out, and bathroom tissue was of very inferior quality. We would stay there again when in the area.

Our cabin was cute and the people were hospitable. However, the beds feel very old and extremely uncomfortable as well as the pillows. Found it difficult to sleep.

We stayed in a cabin because we had a dog. Nice and private, place to walk the dog. There was only 2 of us but there was also a loft with a mattress if we had more people/kids. Kitchen area was stocked with silverware, dishes and microwave/oven/stove. Cabin was very clean. I would stay there again.
