Stunning Views: Mountaintop Cabin in Burnsville!

Reviews

• Beautiful views. List ends there unfortunately.

  2/5

  The views are spectacular and description of the property is accurate. The road up is provided little margin for error especially when wet or icy in our case..so AWD is mandatory, not suggested. Hot tub worked great and was enjoyed. Unfortunately, the lack of home maintenance of the property was the story for our Christmas trip. Carpets have beyond reached their lifespan. Stains and burns aplenty.Graveyards of ladybugs aren’t hard to find. The main floor toilet was out of order. To their credit, the host responded quickly with a plumber coming out same day only to temporarily fix the issue. The final straw for me was finding wooden floor panels with exposed nails within inches of my toddlers playing.Lastly, as a note: the home is not equipped with central heat, rather individual heating units in all but one bedroom leaving the main room and downstairs very cold on the coldest of nights. This didn’t bother us so much as we had the fireplace going the whole trip..but it’s worth noting for others.I brought all of this to the host’s attention only to receive haphazard excuses and insincere apologies. Its a shame, but I would not recommend.

• Spacious Home with Beautiful Views

  5/5

  We enjoyed our stay at this home nestled high on the mountain. The road up to the house is no joke! You definitely needed 4WD or AWD! House had plenty of room for our family. The kitchen is amazing!

• Phenomenal Girls Weekend

  5/5

  The home was absolutely gorgeous with amazing views! There were 7 of us and everyone had plenty of space, we spent lots of time on the porches and playing games at the large table! Property owner responded to our questions quickly and was very informative prior to our trip! Definitely need 4x4 to get to the house, but it’s worth the bumpy, twists and turns! Suggest arriving before dark the first time! We will definitely be returning here! Worth every penny!!

• Cabin was nicely secluded

  3/5

  The cabin was very nice with amenties as listed. Host response time is excellent. We stayed towards the end of Fall, so there was a lot of dead ladybugs everywhere and some live ones inside the house. The condition of the road to get to the cabin was seriously down played. If travelers are not used to driving on mountain roads, this road will be very scary, not to mention it will ruin your vehicle. You definitely need 4-wheel or All-wheel drive to make it up. I've lived on dirt roads for many years and they need to be scraped, filled, and maintained regularly. I'm really surprised that the property owners don’t collaborate to get the road maintained. Final word of caution is to arrive to the cabin before dark to familiarize yourselves with the road and navigate up to the house because there's no GPS signal once you enter the dirt road.
