Jun 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Our stay at Wildhorse The cabin was located in a very hilly area. Luckily we had a four wheel vehicle! Driving up into the driveway was tough and we had to avoid sharp rocks. They have parking in front of garage also, which is better. Cabin was comfortable, beds were great! We really enjoyed the porch and the seclusion. ##### Sandra P. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025
