There were six adults in our group, and we had a blast! On separate occasions, we saw approximately 10–14 bears during our stay. One important tip for future guests: completely empty your car, make sure the windows are rolled up tightly, and keep it locked!We loved watching the bears walk past the cabin each morning. The cabin itself is a bit dated with some upgrades, but it had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.Also, be prepared for winding roads and steep uphill driveways — it definitely keeps things exciting, so pay attention while driving! ;-)Thank you for a fun and memorable stay!

This was a great location for our stay. The house was clean and very welcoming. We loved the hot tub, pool table, and ping pong table for the kids to be occupied. The views were amazing and the owners were very quick to respond to our questions on things to do, or any general questions we had. I would highly recommend this location for your next vacation.

Code on door was not correct. We waited 45 minutes for Rebecca to get back with us & give us a new code. There was trash around the front, interior doors had veneer stripped off in places, same with tables in living room.No drain plugs in 2 of the bathtubs. Rip in hot tub cover. Hot tub was fine, beds were comfortable, house was clean. We did get to see 2 bears eating berries by the driveway.

I’ll start with the positives. Nothing leaked during our stay. There was plenty of seating for our family of eight in both the living room and at the dining table. We always had hot water. On our first night, we saw bears playing nearby, which was really neat. The hot tub was wonderful.Unfortunately, there were many issues. There is a very strong sewer smell, making it impossible to leave the front door or sliding doors open. The bedroom with the balcony appears to have something living in the wall; we were woken multiple times each night by scurrying noises. Cobwebs were also present in that bedroom.Both deck floors need refinishing, and the main floor deck railing needs attention. The rocking chairs are molding. A grill is listed as an amenity, but there was no usable grill, and the grill scraper/cleaner and ash scooper were left in the grass. There were no potholders for the oven, and while a mixer was provided, it had no beaters.The upstairs sink would not drain, and my husband had to clean it out himself. We could not play pool because only one cue had a usable tip. Ping pong was playable, but the paddles need replacement. Heat on the main level did not work properly until vents elsewhere were closed. When closing the vent over the dining table, black debris came out, suggesting the vents need cleaning. The floors also creak excessively.Overall, the cabin has potential but needs maintenance and care.

The carpet needs to be replaced in all the rooms, it is very spotted and nasty. In the bedroom facing the balcony there was a dead squirrel under the table. It had the entire cabin smelling. We had to buy candles and air fresheners to help rid the smell. The toilet downstairs needs to be checked, it flushes slow and stops up! The bathrooms on the first and second floor were nice. The beds were comfortable, but pillows were flat. We got to see several bears and that was nice! Nice area, but the cabin was just outdated!

The property had a good setup. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook. The living room was cozy with very comfortable seating. The beds were comfortable. We did have a little visitor in the home. Somehow a flying squirrel gained entrance. We qere able to get the little one out. We saw a few bears. The balconies were great to sit on and juat liaten to nature. The drive to the cabin was a little scary, especially at night, but we mastered it. All in all, it was a great place to stay and the owner returned texts quickly. We will definitely stay here again.

The cabin was a great place for our family getaway. 8 adults were comfortable in the cabin, and there was plenty of space to sit and to spread out. It's also a great place to spot bears from the safety of the second floor porch! Make sure to keep your car doors locked.
