Absolutely Beautiful
Just gorgeous. Such a lovely cozy cabin with everything you could need. Beautiful outlook and close to fabulous National Park walks. We were able to totally relax - very much helped by a late afternoon bubble bath. Would love to go back during the winter to be able to light the fire.
