10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Dec 2025
We had a great time at Peace of Heaven! Our family loved staying in the cabin on the mountain with the incredible views and wonderful amenities. Everything was easy to find and the beds were comfy and inviting. Our children loved the bunk beds and selection of toys and we loved the highchair and kid friendly dishes and utensils. We will definitely return if find ourselves in the area again. (Unrelated, the Polar Express was a great time for our kids and the train museum was a hit, too! The hosts were very helpful in pointing us toward some other experiences in the area that were kid friendly too!) We definitely recommend a stay at Peace of Heaven! You won’t regret it!
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Dec 2025
We were so lucky to find this property! It's rare to find somewhere that offers a one night stay and that's all we needed for the Polar Express trip. The location is great- out of the way with a great view and no neighbor noise or light pollution, but still close to town. great size for us to bring the kids and grand parents for the train. The review asked about skiing.. I gave it a 5 but didn't apply. Just didn't want to doc stars for that.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Nov 2025
Excellent property with a wonderful view. Plenty of space and very clean. We did have to use 4WD to navigate the steep driveway in rainy weather. Overall excellent experience and we will book again!
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Nov 2025
We were blown away by the beauty of Peace of Heaven and it's surroundings. This beautiful cabin is stunning indoors and out. Our hosts were so nice, and even called us personally when we had a question. This was my first experience with a VRBO property, but it won't be my last. This was far superior to any other vacation rental platform I've used previously. I would give thia property 10 stars if I could.
