The cabin was cozy and comfortable. It’s correctly called “Sunrise Sensation” because the sunrises are breathtaking! The rocking chairs on the porch overlooking the mountainside are peaceful and relaxing. We had dozens of deer pass throughout the day. Hot tub is nice. The driveway is a sharp right turn but if you navigate it slowly you’ll be just fine. There are three blue reflectors marking off the well as you turn in. The main bed is tall but there’s a stool in the closet. A few suggestions for fellow travelers to bring: beach towels for hot tub, bath soap (some are provided but not adequate), and dryer sheets. We’ve stayed at several mountain cabins over the years in the area and this was a favorite. The owners did a great job making it feel like home!

Beautiful cabin with amazing view. Clean. The small road to get to the driveway is a little scary at night, but they communicated upfront about that and left the light on for us.

Short stay

My family rented to visit a sick family member. After booking and reading the reviews we were scared of what we may have got ourselves into. We arrived around midnight with flashlight in hand which was not needed. We also have a full size suv, which we were concerned about. The suv fight down the driveway just fine even with it being tight. Great stay and would stay again. This property is just like any other, exactly what you would expect when staying in the mountains!

Convenient location

Close to downtown and mostly paved roads to the driveway. The driveway could be a challenge for those not used to steep hills and there is only room for 2 vehicles, but other than that it is a clean, comfortable cabin with nice views and plenty of room.

Nice Cabin but VERY POOR ACCESSIBILITY

Check in says 4pm, but were instructed by management group to not show until at least 6pm . We arrived at 7:15pm to a completely pitch dark road. No lights, no reflectors off of a very bumpy gravel road. The driveway is extremely steep and a hard right turn in off the gravel road. Again, no light marking the entrance of the property driveway and the driveway was completely blanketed by dry pine needles. My SUV began sliding as we turned into the driveway due to lack of traction from the pine needles. I turned hard right in order to avoid going off the side of the mountain and unfortunately, there is a concrete well cover on the right side that was completely unmarked and no reflectors to show that it is there. They never mentioned this is the check in instructions or to watch for it. My SUV sustained significant damage to the right side as we slid past the well on the right side. The lack of lighting or driveway maintenance creates and extremely dangerous situation for guests! The response I received from the property manager after notifying her what had happened was: "The driveway is steep and for the first time accessing the cabin it is ideal for it to be during the day but we understand that will not always be the case." Not a I'm sorry that happened, is everyone ok...we'll get someone out there to clear the driveway. NOTHING! Instead, we all spent an hour the next morning sweeping the driveway so that we would not have the same problem coming and going again.

End of summer getaway

Our family loved the house. Just minutes away from town. We found the house clean and spacious for us and kids. The house has a grand front porch to sit and watch the sun come up over the mountains so peaceful. We rent it again.

Other than these few suggestions our stay was outstanding. 1 There should be a chair in each bedroom even if it’s just a folding chair. 2. A better system of trash disposal especially with the disposal sites closed on the weekend.
