Beautiful views of the lake and mountains

Right on the water with 2 decks with amazing views. Cabin was quaint and comfortable. Rafting and scenic train ride within 30 minutes. The property management company was easy to get ahold of and quick to respond.

Cozy cabin on the lake

The cabin is very cozy although the sleeping arrangement was a bit awkward. The bed downstairs (master bedroom?) has a double bed up against the wall so not ideal for a couple - one person would be up against the wall and have to crawl over the other person to use the bathroom. We opted to use the queen bed upstairs but there is no bathroom up there so we had to manage the stairs during the night to use the bathroom. The “master” downstairs has broken blinds on the window that looks directly into the neighbors house. The blinds don’t come down so I found an extra sheet in the closet upstairs to drape over the window for privacy. I am allergic/sensitive to scented soaps and itched for hours. I finally had to go downstairs and get fully dressed (including socks) in order to sleep. I travel a lot all over the world and almost all places use scent free laundry detergent but every once in a while I run into this problem. There was plenty of coffee but no filters. The property manager said that they weren’t provided but for that pricepoint they really should be. And why coffee but no filters? Strange! The property manager contacted me 10 times in two days which was over the top. They said to contact them if there was anything that could make our stay perfect and yet the one thing we wanted (coffee filters) was not provided and the local store was closed. So that suggestion was not helpful at all! And too many check out time reminders!

Incredible Lakeside Cabin

This waterfront cabin is charming, with amazing views of Lake Vallecito and loads of relaxing porches. That said, the stairs inside the cabin are not easily climbed, that first step is a doozy without a solid bar to hang onto. All but one of the beds are located upstairs, but both bathrooms are downstairs, so not very convenient. Over all, the cabin was peaceful and just right for two of us - we had a lovely anniversary trip.

Beautiful but needs a little work

The biggest concern was the leaking kitchen sink. There is a note stating do not use the disposal, but that's not the real issue. The drain pipe is not connected to the disposal so using the left side of the sink will result in major flooding. Also, simply using the right side results in water/soap overflowing the drain pipes and flooding the cabinet. Also, the hot/cold water supplies are reserved in the bathroom just off the kitchen. There is also a flickering light in the kitchen which appears to be poorly wired and a potential fire hazard. Overall we loved our stay but these issues should be addressed for the safety of future guests.

Beautiful views of the lake

We could see the lake from the deck as well as our beds. I watched the full moon over the lake while in bed and it was breath taking.
