Wooded Wonderland
We had a fantastic stay Thanksgiving week, 2024. My family of 5 really enjoyed our stay. The property is secluded and has gorgeous views--even in the winter! My kids were delighted with the little games tucked away under the TV. My husband and I loved the thoughtfulness of amenities like the heated towel rack, really cool bunk beds and fun ping pong table.
The kids were overjoyed to wake up Thanksgiving morning to a fresh snowfall! We made a snowman and even took our Christmas card photo! We will definitely be back--the location is perfect for Greek Peak, or if you are like us and visiting family but just need a little more space this is a great little hideaway. Thank you to the owners.

Great place, Sunday checkout is too early
Great house - private with a nice pond view and fire pit (no fire wood supplied) it's pricey for the area, though and with a Friday 4pm check-in and Sunday 10am check-out, I feel a bit ripped off - that's really not a full weekend!

Nice spot, great amenities
This property had everything we needed for our family. We toasted s’mores at the campfire, enjoyed plenty of space in the kitchen and living area, and played ping pong upstairs. The bunk beds are amazing! The owners have done a nice job with the property.
