We rented this home for my Birthday weekend. We lovingly nicknamed the trip our Momcation. Myself and 4 other moms had a relaxing weekend with no husbands or kids. This house was perfect! It was clean and beautiful (the views are absolutely amazing) the hot tub was on a timer so no need to figure it out! EVERYTHING that you can possibly need was provided! All linens, towels, toiletries (minus toothbrushes and toothpaste) The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you needed to cook! Great All Clad pots and pans, salt pepper, sugar, coffee filters, Paper Towels, sponges, soaps truly everything!!! It is remote and we had a fun visit from a juvenile black bear but she moved on after making my birthday super special with her presence I highly recommend this home. The only piece of advice i would give future guests is there are a lot of stair to the house and inside the home so anyone with mobility issues should be aware of that.
