Mountain Paradise
We enjoyed our stay so much. Decided to take a long weekend up in the mountains. This cabin had all we needed to relax and more. The cabin was very clean and super spacious. The views of the mountains and lake were spectacular. The hot tub was amazing as well. The owners were super responsive and very helpful throughout our stay. We will definitely be back.
