This was the 4th time that my family has stayed at this property, and it never disappoints. It is so nice to visit the High Country and have a place to stay that is clean, spacious, cozy, and in a great location with amazing views. The fall foliage was spectacular and Ann is a fantastic host. I expect many more stays here in the near future.

Wonderful stay in the mountains

we so enjoyed the cabin. It was clean, well furnished and very welcoming. The view was stunning. We enjoyed setting on the deck in the rocking chairs and seeing the mountains The small problem we had with the door latch was taken care of within minutes. It was reassuring to know that there were maintenance people who would come at once and fix whatever the problem was. Our stay was great

Perfect Weekend Getaway

Great location to easily access area attractions but also still enjoy the quiet and views of the mountain! Condo was clean and just the right size for our family of four. We never ended up using the community amenities, so we’ll have to come back! Owner communication was fantastic; we knew exactly what to bring with us and what their check in/out expectations were. Great stay!
