This 2 bedroom, 1 bath beauty is a short 5 minute walk to town and 5-10 min. drive to the lake. The large deck is complete with a sitting area and a lower deck with a picnic table. Enjoy the feel of sitting in the trees under the hanging lights. In the winter, the ultimate sledding hill is right behind the cabin! In the summer, the walking trail and creek behind the cabin is great for exploring!

The other bedroom is a small bunk house perfect for kids. The living room has a twin pull out in the loveseat if needing extra space. One bathroom with a full shower is located off the bunk room. . The cabin is walking distance to town, and located in front of a hill perfect for sledding in the winter months. 5-10 minute drive to the lake, 25-30 minute drive to China Peak Ski Resort.

Disliked: Check-in
Horrible check in process, terrible instructions on how to get lights turned on.
The host never mentioned that there was a check in note book tucked away in a bin on the wall.
My girlfriend almost injured herself badly walking into the bathroom when she did not see the step down from the main bedroom. There is a lawsuit waiting to happen with that bathroom step down.
Bathroom heater does not work.
The gas fire place has one temp, HOT. Also, no instructions on how to operate the fireplace!
