House was in a great location for our trip. It fit our needs. There are some cosmetic issues in the house but nothing that would keep me from recommending a stay. We enjoyed the creek that runs across the property.

Great location

We really enjoyed our stay. The stream out front was beautiful and our kids enjoyed playing around it while we were there. The house was comfortable with lots of games and puzzles and the location was awesome. Very central and close to all the things we wanted to do and see. The house could stand a little updating/love with the master shower being tricky and just some chipping paint and wear around the house but all of that was quite minor. We would happily stay again.

This house was in a great location , however we would not stay again . We shared this space with two other couples . The bed space was limited . The host advertised two queen beds and one was clearly a double bed . Even upon leaving we found the sheets said double on them . We also found all beds to be very uncomfortable. The house was not clean , there was evidence of water damage throughout. The kitchen was well stocked and the creek under the house was very nice . There is a wood burning fireplace . You must provide the wood . Overall we had a great time but the beds certainly need to be replaced and the couch was broken as well .

So convenient for the slopes

We had a great time! The house was tiny but somehow still had plenty of room for all 10 of us! The squirrel that hangs on a swing in the kitchen was the highlight of the weekend.

Great ski trip

We took the kids up to Sugar Mountain for a few days to ski/snowboard right before Christmas and the house was a perfect place for us to stay. So close to the mountain and so convenient. We had a great time. Just wished the kitchen would have been stocked with a few more cooking items (no sheet pans or cookie sheets) but that didn’t stop us from having a great time!

Location was great - especially if you ski. We were there in the summer and very nice hilly area. Property is a bit worn and not super clean. The lighting is terrible, cabinet fronts fell off (they repaired them), AC units very loud and ineffective in some rooms, bring your own kitchen utensils as the ones provided are very cheap. Property managers responsive but you can only do so much with a worn out property that hasn’t been well maintained.

Everything was perfect. I would suggest the Owner add a more detail description of the properties amenities. We took our own grill cause one wasn’t listed and there was one at the property. As well as list out that there is a coffee maker and a keurig. We didn’t know so we couldn’t buy coffee prior to going to the house and then having to leave again. Mattresses in the rooms need to be replaced. The master was comfortable but the other beds had complaints. Over all it’s a beautiful cabin located in a very good location. It’s close to a lot of activities in the area and a close drive to towns near by.
