A Rare Mountaintop Retreat That Truly Has It All
Tucked away in a peaceful highland community, Yeti’s Den is a contemporary mountain retreat designed for unforgettable family gatherings, tranquil escapes, and high-adventure getaways alike. Here you’ll enjoy tree-lined privacy, cool summer breezes at 3,800 ft. elevation, and snowier winters—all without the hassle of steep roads or tricky driveways. Inside, the home offers a clean, spacious layout with five large bedrooms, giving everyone plenty of room to relax. The fully stocked kitchen makes it easy to cook hearty meals after a day on the trails, while the oversized washer and dryer keep gear fresh for the next adventure. Step onto more than 1,000 sq. ft. of deck space to enjoy the mountain air, or gather around the fireplaces—both supplied with firewood—for cozy evenings together. Adventure starts right outside your door, with multiple trail systems within walking and riding distance. In winter, enjoy quick access to Timberline, White Grass, and Canaan Valley ski areas, plus a perfect sledding hill just a short stroll away. In summer, store your bikes and hiking gear in the expansive downstairs tile area before cooling off under starry mountain skies. When it’s time for fun indoors, Yeti’s Den doesn’t disappoint: a commercial-grade arcade with 10,000+ games, 2-player Pop-A-Shot basketball, a huge pool table lounge with its own TV, and six Roku TVs keep entertainment options endless. And if work calls, the home is thoughtfully equipped with business-grade Starlink internet, excellent WiFi coverage, folding desks, and comfortable chairs—perfect for remote work or school. Add in reliable cell service and a 9-stage UV water filtration system, and you can focus on enjoying your stay with total peace of mind. Yeti’s Den is even dog-friendly (limit 2), so your four-legged companions can share the adventure too. Whether you’re here to relax in mountain serenity or chase high-elevation thrills, Yeti’s Den is your ideal home base for comfort, connection, and unforgettable memories.

Ideal Early Spring Get-Away
Yeti’s Den was an ideal spot for four older couples! With a well-stocked kitchen, roomy living area and bedrooms, fireplace and wood stove, and fun indoor pool/poker table/skee ball available, the house suited the chilly mornings and evenings in mid-March. The location allowed us to explore interesting places/restaurants in Davis, Thomas, Blackwater Falls area, and Timberline Mt. We found Yeti’s Den the perfect central spot for family members from three states to meet and make new memories!

Excellent Mountain Getaway
Yeti's Den is exactly as described in the listing and photos. The property is quiet, well kept/maintained, and the kitchen has all of the necessities (pots, pans, etc) necessary. We only used the fireplace on the second floor, but it was in great working condition with plenty of firewood available. Overall a fantastic investment for my family over the holiday. The only critique I would offer - and this is already covered in other reviews - is the thermostat. It resets a couple of times a day and the home will get quite chilly overnight if you don't pay attention to the temperature. If you plan to visit during the winter, I'd recommend bringing some small fire starters (or be willing to go outside and grab some kindling). As mentioned above, there is PLENTY of firewood available, but generally large pieces for when the fire is already burning hot.

Cousin's trip #4
Each year I take my 4 grandkids on a trip for Labor Day Weekend. This year was no exception. We all had a great time and the sight-seeing was great. We had some good dinners and played games and had a ball.

Beyond expectations!
Seriously one of the most equip homes I have ever stayed it! Usually places like this are short on dishes and pots and pans but this was nothing like that! This was packed with things we didn't even think about until later, thought we were screwed but turns out they had everything we needed! It was clean, cozy, spacious, and in a beautiful location. Our group is aiming to book the same place each year now! We LOVED it! Only down side, they have a lock on the thermostat. It was a bit warm when the windows were closed, I did not attempt to reach out to management so they may have let us access it if we asked, but I can't speak to it.

Good size house for a big group.
We had 6 adults and 6 kids. Great set up for the adults to have bedrooms and a living room upstairs and the kids had bed rooms and a living room down stairs.
