Second stay with my family and it was wonderful
This was my second time staying here with my family and it was perfect. The cabin was well equipped and we didn't need to bring anything besides our clothes! I was able to cook all meals in the kitchen. The location was perfect and close to town but far enough away from noise to make a peaceful experience. Will go there again!

Lovely mountain retreat
Beautiful property and very clean and comfortable home. We loved the spacious second-floor great room with large windows looking out into the trees and mountains. Both bedrooms open onto the large front deck where we enjoyed morning coffee. The jacuzzi tub was wonderful after some long days and we were very pleased with the good quality cooking ware and well-stocked kitchen. Definitely hope to come back again.

little get-away
Cabin is quiet and cozy-secluded area surrounded by trees- cabin a bit run down-remote control issues, no batteries or low batteries- damp towels hanging in bathroom-damp sheets and towels in dryer- kitchen and bath very clean Check-in would have been better at 3:00 and honestly too far to walk to town where you would have to walk on the main road without a sidewalk, unsafe.

My husband and I really enjoyed staying at this quiet cabin with views of trees out all the windows. The kitchen is extremely well equipped which was great as we cooked all our meals in. The fireplace was warm and cozy. The cabin was very clean and all the appliances and toilet are new. Couch and bed were comfortable. We would stay here again. 😁

Just exhausting
We were contacted about an hour before we were supposed to leave for our check-in that the original cabin was not ready for us. They put us in a different cabin that was not ready for occupancy. When we arrived at the cabin, it was 50° with only one heater in a downstairs bedroom and space heaters for everywhere else. When you turned on the space heaters it tripped a breaker, and the power went out. This happened several times during our stay, several calls were made, it took hours for people to respond to us. we slept downstairs on the couch without proper linens or bedding just to stay warm. The management team that ran the cabins for the owners were horrible. They really had nothing to help or any proper plan in place for any kind of event like this. Interestingly enough, the owner lived on the site where we were at and she was very helpful. This was not her fault at all. She tried to facilitate everything she could, and even had wood delivered for us, so that we could sleep our second night in warmth. The only thing that the property management offered us was a late check out. I requested to have at least the first night refunded to us, and after many go arounds and several email attempts I was told that I would only be getting the actual rental rate which is about 30% of what we paid for the one night. Again, although the owners were actually very helpful, upset about the situation and were nice The management company was an absolute joke, and did nothing for us , I had to call VRBO just to get a response and even then the owner called me back not the management company. It felt like a waste of time because for the 48 hours we were there we were either cold trying to keep the power on or on the phone there was nothing relaxing about this. I was told I would have an answer from the management company in response to my email within 72 hours, they played a game for two weeks each time stating that my email had gone into a junk folder. The odd thing about that was I was replying to an email that was sent to me from the management company and even called them out on that, so how would or could my email go into a junk folder when it was sent from them directly initially? Not worth the time to go there again and have anything like this happen again as long as that management company is running things.

Very comfortable
The property was beautiful. The house was as advertised. The cookware was in good shape and there was plenty of it. The only thing I would change would be if they gave more direction on how to use the heater. The in floor heater went out at one point, mostly probably because we tried to turn it up too high, or the pilot went out. However, our host was able to help us the next day and the rest of our stay was perfect.

Secluded Cabin with all amenities
Cabin was spacious and fireplace was great. Heater worked great, especially with the cold weather outside. You do go through a patch of dirt road and it was hard to get the cars up the hilly ramp to park. Definitely recommend bringing chains roe that section or 4wd. We bought salt to spread on the ice and a shovel to clear some if the ice out. Other than that, ot was a great stay, everything worked great, grilled some meat outside.

We really loved this cabin, lovely kitchen and two bedrooms and the couch in the living room was very comfortable! What I felt could be inproved is the little access road and driveway to the property, it begins as a somewhat paved road and ends in a gravel road, both are steep and traction on my wheels was tricky until you get used to it. If this were paved it would be a great help! Also, I looked for a "Spirit" property sign outside but didn't see one that distinctively identifies the property, so a sign that stands out more would help. We loved the peace and quiet, and the comfort of the cabin!

We had a wonderful stay in this lovely property surrounded by trees. Very peaceful and perfect. The management company were so responsive and the staff very nice indeed. But beware of the neighbor to the left of property, he is a very angry and rude man. We accidentally drove past our cabin in the dark and had to turn around on his driveway and he came out and verbally assaulted us..it was scary!
