Escape to Mountain Crest, a quiet mountaintop retreat designed for guests who value privacy, nature, and a true getaway experience. Set on five secluded acres, this authentic log cabin offers sweeping panoramic views—up to 100 miles on clear days.
What You’ll Love • Total seclusion on private acreage • Expansive long-range mountain views • Cozy, authentic log cabin atmosphere • Wildlife sightings right outside your door • WiFi + Satellite TV (when you want to reconnect)
A Different Kind of Stay This is not a resort or a polished luxury rental—it’s a genuine retreat. We’re a family sharing a place we love, kept intentionally natural. Instead of manicured lawns, you’ll find open mountain terrain where deer, birds, and other wildlife roam freely.
To help preserve the peaceful environment and protect the wildlife, hunting and the use of firearms are not permitted on the property.
Inside the Cabin The interior is warm and inviting, with massive log construction that creates a cozy, grounded feel. It’s an ideal space for a romantic getaway or uninterrupted time with family—simple, comfortable, and intentionally removed from the noise of everyday life.
Seasonal Access (Important) Winter brings incredible beauty—but also real conditions. A high-clearance 4WD vehicle is strongly recommended, and tire chains may be needed depending on weather. The gravel access road helps preserve the privacy and setting, but it is not suitable for motorcycles.
Why Guests Choose Mountain Crest Guests don’t come here for luxury finishes—they come for the stillness, the views, and the feeling of having a mountain to themselves.
If that’s what you’re looking for, you’ll feel right at home here.
