Beautiful Mountain View spot - great for families

We really enjoyed our stay in Horse Shoe. The driveway is super fun to traverse because you are very much on the higher end elevation wise but the views are so worth it. Great amenities like an air fryer, lots of cooking tools, full sets of dishes and glassware and 2.5 bathrooms which was great for our group. We would definitely come back here.

It was absolutely perfect! We spent a majority of our time on the back deck overlooking trees. It has an awesome treehouse vibe. It was clean and cozy. Its 15 minutes away from sierra nevada brewing company that the owners suggested and it did not disappoint! The beers were delicious and the food was even better. Already planning a trip for next year.
