Our group stayed here for the second time. It’s a great house for a large group of people. The Mountain View’s are wonderful and the hot tub was a welcome addition after spending our days at the gem show. Would definitely stay here again.

Our stay here was fantastic, the cabin was beautiful and was filled with lots of little touches that enhanced the experience.When we had a problem, the AC leaking upon arrival, we contacted Rachel and she had it taken care of quickly without any disruption to our stay.My only minor complaint was the lack of an outdoor area with a fire pit. The cabin has the space for it, but there’s no easy way to get down there.Aside from that we had a great day and my family would love to come back.
