Mountain Getaway

The cabin was very spacious for my family of 4. We saw deer, and an elk. The cabin is minutes away from shopping!

Beautiful.

Despite the cost being doubled after the company takes out taxes (248 for a two day stay) which is a bit ridiculous considering they aren't a small business, the home was absolutely beautiful. If they would sell it, I would without a doubt buy it. You will see deer, wild horses, elk, and possibly even bobcats.

This did not meet our standards. Pro was the hot tub was ok. The cons were it was dirty. Floors were dirty..the kitchen counter had something sticky on it. Cobwebs on living room wall. Many of the lamps didn't work. Remotes didn't work for TV. We called in a work order for commode, told us they would be there Friday. No one showed up. Horrible smell upstairs. Without A/C, too hot to be up there. Upstairs shower was just a sprinkle, not a rain shower, couldn't adjust. Screens were all ripped upstairs and one downstairs. The back and driveway flooded on Wednesday. The back furniture very dirty and ripped, front furniture rusted. Porch leaks. No gorgeous views whatsoever as advertised, pine tree and apple tree was it. Called about A/C, told us about remote, could never find it. Catholic shrines everywhere. This house is not upkept and not as advertised. Carport but can't park under it because of all the stuff under it. We would not stay here again.
