We truly enjoyed our stay. The cabin is clean, updated, and fully stocked with all the essentials. There was plenty of room (and then some) for our family of 6. The host was very responsive and accommodating. The home and area are beautiful and centrally located between multiple sought after destinations. I’m certain others will enjoy the home as much as we did.The location is nestled away in the mountains and fullOf privacy for those looking to getaway. Just a tidbit of knowledge…your final mile is off the beaten path and the final ascent to the cabin is quite steep, so you may need a 4x4 if visiting during winter conditions. Our suburban had no issue making the trip in 2x4. Also be sure to save the login code and directions to be accessible offline. You will lose cell service.
