Thanksgiving Family Vacation
We had a great stay at Blue Bear Cabin!
Our whole family fit perfectly (party of 12) The cabin is laid out very well, with 3 separate levels for hanging out & activities. Communication with the host was easy & responsive. There was lots to explore within the resort, and near by to the cabin, but the cabin itself had plenty to keep us entertained! Would definitely recommend!

Fantastic get away
I hosted my daughter’s college ministry group at Sawyer’s cabin and we had a great time. There was plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the gorgeous scenery. Hiking, shopping and the Bigfoot museum! This cabin was well stocked, clean and comfortable. It’s bright, inviting and the perfect spot for a large family gathering. We will come back

Luxury Views and a Cozy Cabin
We had our annual Spring Break trip this week with my in-laws and my two teenaged children and our two fur babies. The cabin was large enough to accommodate our six and an additional five teens who came up for one night (after we got approval from Sawyer) to enjoyed the quiet and comfort of the outdoors. The fire and surrounding chairs and hanging chair (UBER comfy) were perfect for roasting hotdogs and s'mores. The ambient string lighting from the upper deck to the fire pit were the perfect amount of light for cozy talks and reading in the evenings. The game room was fantastic and included a poker table and set of chips/cards. The basement also had a Mr. Packman machine that my father-in-law tried and have the highest score on. There is a small mini-fridge in the basement as well for those who don't want to head upstairs to get drinks. The two TVs on the main and basement floor kept people with differing interests entertained. The kitchen was fully stocked and all appliances that we used were in good condition. (Oven, microwave, fridge/freezer, washer/dryer, and blender.) Beds were comfy. The master on the main floor was the most comfortable bed I've ever slept in while renting. I slept soundly and woke up without any back pain as sometimes happens when it's not "your bed at home." There were plenty of towels and washcloths for all three bathrooms and we had a wonderful time laughing, making memories, fighting over the hanging chairs, and hiking with the dogs. TY

Cabin trip 2022
Sawyer’s cabin was exactly as described online and even better in person! We really enjoyed our stay over the weekend. The cabin is close by to many restaurants, Walmart and even a liquor store. Sawyer was very responsive, helpful and an overall awesome host! My friends/family and I cannot wait to be back! Thank you again for such a great fall vacation!!

Best cabin we’ve stayed at!
This is the cleanest, most creatively decorated cabin that we’ve ever stayed at (and we make a habit of taking at least 2 cabin trips every year, so we’ve stayed at our fair share of cabins). The owner was very easy to communicate with and very understanding. The location was great, the amenities provided were top notch. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything you might need, there are 2 great lounging areas outside, as well as several fire pits and a gas grill. The jacuzzi was very clean and perfectly located under the outdoor string lights.
Overall, a great cabin that we’d love to go back to.
