Host Michael was so good, he made every arrangements in the house so we need not go out finding for anything. Patti, the neighbor was so loving. We enjoyed the stay thoroughly.

Michael, the host, was very friendly and welcoming. The view is gorgeous, and the lodging is unique and rustic (part of a barn). We stayed one night for the Polar Express train. Do wish the heating was more evenly distributed. It got really hot in the bedrooms. It was better when we turned the heat down and left the door cracked. Slanted flooring in some areas was a little quirky, but we rolled with it! Otherwise, unit was well supplied with extras: coffee, creamer, filters toothpaste, shampoos, paper towels and tissue, etc. It even had a large bottle of filtered water, which we were thankful to have. The host even let us check in early and stay later since no one else was expected. Great for our short trip to the mountains!
