Loved this property - just the cutest cabin & the mountain views were amazing! (Look for the waterfall in the community and try the hilltop swings at the cabin.) Comfie beds and nicely outfitted with everything we needed.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The house was incredibly clean and well taken care of. No details were forgotten. Hosts were great and communicative, but we had no problems. If you’re looking for a getaway with a Mountain View, this is it. The drive is definitely one that would require four wheel drive depending on the weather but it is beyond worth it.
