Quiet time

Very quiet area. Loved the open concept. Very cute. Enough room for my boyfriend and I. Even could have had more people with us and have enough room. Loved the porch and view. Could have a few of the limbs trimmed to see more of the mountains but overall good stay.

Beautiful cabin and exceptional service

This cabin is an absolutely gorgeous property! After walking in, I was completely floored by how gorgeous the entire cabin was and by the breathtaking view. This cabin did not disappoint. I had to contact management twice, once because I did not know how to work the fireplace and a second time due to power outage (in the area, not just this cabin). Both times, they were kind, responsive and quick to provide assistance. The hot tub is perfectly positioned toward the amazing view and the fireplace kept me warm and cozy throughout the chilly stay. I would absolutely recommend this place to a couple, someone staying solo or maybe a small group of 2-3.

Let down

Everything fell below expectations. The entire cabin felt like it needed a good scrubbing. It didn’t smell fresh. Everything had a film of dust. There wasn’t bedding for the futon or pull out couch. The one extra blanket had not been washed. Pillows on the bed were flat, bed was very hard and uncomfortable. Cupboards weren’t organized - the few items in them were just thrown wherever and there wasn’t even everything we needed for cooking meals. So instead of eating in the cabin we ate out more than we planned because it just made eating there not very appealing. They included 3 packets of dishwasher detergent for 5 night stay. No laundry soap was supplied. A few things in the cabin were broken including a bathroom doorknob that wouldn’t lock- the lock part was physically broken.… recliner wouldn’t recline… drawer in the fridge was broke and the pieces for the fridge door to hold items weren’t in there. A few of the cupboards had misc pieces of broken pieces and odds and ends that didn’t help my trust in the place. We were only given the one trash bag for our 5 night stay. There was no place to put garbage once the bag was full anyway. The view was nice but could have been much better if they would trim the trees behind the deck. There were tossed trash bags in the woods behind our deck. I didn’t realize how close proximity the cabin was to other cabins around. It appears that these are just cheap quick builds and put as many in as you can fit so there are lots of neighbors - some had barking dogs, one had a loud gathering one night. The “amazing pond” you drive by was nasty and not a selling point to even bring up. We will not be returning or recommending to others.
