The house was amazing, clean, and the sunrise and sunsets views were breathtaking. We really loved the views, the distance away from city noise and the fresh air. We had a pile of nice dry wood pile for the outdoor fire pit waiting for us. Next time I book this house, I will get all stocked up for several days and work from there. The WiFi was better than at my house. The mountain road going up to the house was about 1 mile and steep and narrow in some spots, just as mentioned, but the drive was ok with our AWD and we made sure we got back before dark just to be safe.

Directions to the cabin were great. The warning about driveway is spot on. The guest house is really clean and well stocked. We would suggest that a fire extinguisher be in the cabin.
