Jan 14, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Great country views over the valley.Host very quick to respond.Things to watch out for: The cabin is a converted "trailer", with separate cabin for sleeping, which isn't clear. There is NO shelter from rain in either of these (with no awning/outdoor cover) making it weather dependent. ##### Neil D. Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melody C.
