My husband and I decided to rent the cabin for a few days to celebrate our anniversary. The pictures do not do it justice! It is so cozy and comfortable! I loved the way it was decorated as well. Just what I was imagining when I was looking for a cozy cabin retreat. There are some really good restaurants nearby as well. We got lucky and it happened to snow one night, with big, thick snowflakes and everything seemed so picturesque. Charles is a great house manager. Super helpful and communicative. Great amenities as well! Loved the stay! Was absolutely magical. Can’t wait to do it again! ##### Romela R. Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dawn K.

The setting is very nice, and the location is fairly close to a lot of things to see and do. CJ is very nice to work with, he communicates frequently and timely and checks in to see how things are going. The only slight hiccup we had was CJ offered us the day before our stay at a discount since it was open and we gladly took it and went up after work. When we got there the person at check in didn't have the update which was an issue on their end, and it took a bit to sort out. Other than that, everything was great. I would highly recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a charming cabin to stay at. ##### Dawn K. Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Shane H.
