This cabin is super cozy and clean! It made the perfect home away from home for our “Moms and Sons” ski trip. The beds were comfy and the towels were fluffy. We were able to bring groceries to cook for our boys. The host was in regular contact!

Host had great communication skills, amenities matched what was listed. Peaceful and quiet location. One thing I would like to recommend is having something to prevent the living room carpet from slipping as it moved around when walked on. Other than that, I would stay there again!

This place is a real gem. The location is excellent an having the lake right at your doorstep is fabulous. The house was well equipped and beautifully furnished and had the most comfortable beds we have ever encountered. The fireplace is a real bonus. Overall we property felt very private yet it’s less than five minutes away from town. We hope to stay there again.
