Cute, cozy and quiet! Beautiful mountain view with great star gazing. The property was clan and comfortable. Perfect little get away spot with close access to Roosevelt Lake.
The premise was immaculately clean. This facility had everything you could possibly need and everything was fresh and clean. Best VRBO I've ever had the pleasure of renting. Would highly recommend it to anyone and everyone. Super nice!
Really clean, new and nice one bedroom home. Host was very accommodating and replied timely to all messages. I highly recommend and would stay there again next time I’m in the area.

Clean, soft, comfy bed, plenty of hot water and linens. Nice ambiance with the electric fireplace. Plenty of parking and nice Christmas lights next door. Sally Mae’s Coffee Bar is a must stop.
