Great get away!

Great space, well appointed and a perfect get away for 1 to 2 couples. Will definitely return. It is extremely remote, so prepare for that, especially if snow is in the forcast.

Perfect Valentine’s Getaway

I surprised my husband with a cozy cabin getaway, just the two of us. Time together is hard to come by with two small kids and this cottage was just what we needed. Comfy bed, big tv to veg out to, cute aesthetics, and nice and secluded. My only complaint was that the hot tub was not actually very warm. It seems a bit older so the temp could be due to age, so we didn’t spend much time in it. It did not really impact our stay at all and we still had a wonderful time! Would love to come back again some day!

Be Prepared for a Drive

The cabin is waayyy up on a very rough road. The listing description did not prepare us for the type of terrain and remoteness of this cabin. Take food and water with you as you will not want to come back down.The cabin is very pretty inside and out and very clean. There’s no Mountain View but we saw deer.We also had Wi-Fi problems the whole time we were there.All in all, next time we’ll find something more conveniently located.
