This cabin was so perfect! We really did not want to leave. We tried to extend our stay, but the beautiful cabin was already booked. I can’t blame them! It was the most beautifully decorated cozy place of our honeymoon trip.

Beautiful cabin! Beds super comfortable. Kitchen has everything you need. Only thing I would change is put some heavier curtains in the bedrooms. The curtains are very thin and even with having window blinds as well, the outside lights were very bright and lit up the room. It made it difficult to get much sleep. We still had a wonderful time and would stay again.

Beautiful property, inside and out! The neighborhood kitties were a nice addition our 1st night, we returned from an outing to see 3 or 4 deer in the driveway! I'd love to return in the summer to take full advantage of the lake, the amazing front porch, and the fire pit.

A lovely stay! Welcoming and a comfortable “at home” felling. Nicely decorated with attention to everything you need for your stay and very clean. We enjoyed breakfast on the porch with birds and butterflies stopping by and evenings around the fire. The location was good for touring the Mammoth area.
