Mountain Getaway
Wonderful Home/Amenities with Beautiful Mountain Views and Sunsets. I go to the mountains particularly for the cooler weather and I was not disappointed the week of our stay. I enjoy the fresh mountain air and all the scenic hiking trails. Plenty to do and explore. For me and my family it was the perfect location and vacation!
