This mountain cabin is fine. Looks like they did a lot of the remodel work themselves. Not luxurious or high end finishes/details but overall ok. The location and views are nice. We encountered two bears in the middle of the day that came down the driveway. Both bears tried to open the car door. Make sure to lock your car at ALL times!!!

Great Mountain Experience
We had a wonderful stay! Our views were absolutely incredible. The property offered everything we needed PLUS some. The recycling of spices and left items paper goods is absolutely wonderful and I wish every rental realized the same. We will definitely be back to this location for future Mountain visits.
