The property had a beautiful overall feeling and quality (i.e. cabin, views, everything you ever needed away from home was supplied, but especially the 2nd floor patio. It had warmth and a spectacular view. We watched the fog come in over the mountains. It was a sight. Thank you.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Aug 2025
A very nice cabin with excellent amenities. We were impressed with the attention to detail of everything. We found the cabin to be in very good condition and very COMFORTABLE. From the linens to the kitchen utensils, it was well furnished making for a very enjoyable stay. I would have appreciated a grill, but it was not too inconvenient. The cabin is a bit off the beaten path, but it was easy to get to where we needed to be. The evenings were enjoyable. A quiet area and a great view of the stars. We saw a wide variety of wildlife. Our communication with the host was great - prompt and informative.
