We absolutely loved our stay! We loved it so much that we spent more time in the cabin than any other vacation. Pictures don’t do it justice. There is a beautiful view from the patio. It is close to the strip, yet tucked away in a perfect spot for a mountain getaway. Jackie has thought of every detail and she is a gracious host.

We found this home very welcoming. It was perfectly decorated for Christmas. The kitchen and bathrooms were fully stocked going above and beyond anything I’ve experienced. It was very convenient to not have to run to the store for the small things. Everything we needed was right there. Our host was great. She answered all of my questions promptly. I highly recommend this beautiful home.
