Our extended family loved the layout of the cabin, the paved road up to the cabin, and everything else about our stay! We are already making plans to go back next summer if we can book Cabin #1 again! All the guys loved the pool table and hot tub. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their own space, the location was fantastic and there was no traffic in the gated community. We'll be back next August if all goes well and we'd love to stay longer next time!!
Large house with a fantastic view. We had lots of fun playing ping pong and pool although the pool table is on it’s last leg. Kitchen is well stocked and we had a fantastic time.

Great time to spend with friends, enjoyed the cabin while it was rainy and took a short drive to some awesome hikes and water falls when the weather was nice.

My family celebrated my dad’s 80th birthday at this mountain cabin. We had a lot of family time. The cabin was beautiful and spacious. There was enough room for all 12 of us.

The cabin was absolutely wonderful! When we arrived the caretaker of the house was there to meet us. She had been able to get the tree out but had not been able to decorate it yet and asked if we would like to. We were so excited to be able to decorate the tree and the rest of the cabin. There was an issue with the hot tub but she called and did some trouble-shooting and got it fixed for us before she left the property. We truly appreciate her extra effort to make sure that we had every amenity available to us. The kitchen is well equipped and had so much room for what we brought with us and the bedrooms are enormous. There are some other cabins close by but we never even knew that they were there. We are talking about booking it again for a family get-away in the near future.
