Weekend escape with the family was perfect. The home exceeded our expectations, awesome rental and surrounding area. The house was very clean and cozy. The bedrooms were perfect size and the master bath was an added bonus. Hot tub outside was super relaxing at night under the stars and outdoor fire pit had wooden stairs that lite up as you walked down keeping you safe.There was something to do for everyone in the family and plenty of room for gatherings. We would absolutely rent this home again!

Family getaway. The log home surely met our expectations. The owner has done a great job in providing comfort and created a welcoming environment with decor and newer furnishings. We loved the open-concept living area, and it kept everyone together, regardless of where they were in the house. The game room was a great add-on feature, and star-gazing in the hot tub was amazing. If you plan on using the kitchen or cooking, it is recommended to bring supplies such as paper towels, dish liquid, sponge, coffee filters, and like necessities (TP). Due to the nature of renters, checking cleanliness of pots, pans, plates, silverware, glasses before use is a good idea (several required cleaning before use). These we in no way show stoppers and we look forward to a future return.

The property is great. The listing should advise that 4WD or AWD vehicles are highly advisable in inclement weather. Recommend owners stock the property with consumables such as paper towels, trash bags, dish washer pellets, laundry detergent and at least 2-ply toilet paper. These inexpensive basics would go a long way to making guests feel a lot more welcome, especially at this price level. The heat turned off our last night there. Since we were leaving that morning it wasn’t a terrible problem. It would have been a real problem if it happened earlier in our stay.
