Where do I even start! it was just so nice to feel a bit free for a little while and we noticed that feeling as soon as we reached the driveway. The house was spotless, and we really appreciated how organised everything was, especially the guidebook. The location is great as well!, central to everything, and it was so nice that Crystal Mountain was right next door. The temperature inside stayed consistently comfortable the whole time, and our three girls loved every single moment of it. And then there was the bear. We accidentally left a Teddy bear I handmade made for our five year old, and Wendy mailed it back to us. We had happy tears.. Seriously loved every aspect of this our experience. Hard to believe It was so affordable too, even though it was luxurious and comfortable. An unforgettable experience and a seriously lovely one. Thank you so much for this memory.

This is our second stay at the cabin. A perfect get away that is warm, cozy and inviting. We highly recommend this VRBO the host is gracious and welcoming. Everything you need for your stay is available, games out door dinning, fire pit with a spectacular view of the river. We were able to enjoy the pink moon while sitting on the deck. Plenty of room with a great kitchen. We will definitely be coming back next year.

My family enjoyed our stay here. It had everything we needed and a wonderful view of the ski area. The shuttle bus was super convenient. We would stay here again.
