Our stay was absolutely incredible! The cabin was spotless, cozy, and exactly as pictured. The views were breathtaking, and the peaceful, secluded setting made it the perfect place to relax and recharge. We loved how quiet and private it felt, surrounded by stunning natural beauty. Check-in was seamless, communication with the host was excellent, and everything we needed for a comfortable stay was provided. The drive up added a fun sense of adventure, and once we arrived, it felt like our own little mountain escape. The cabin was ideal for both couples and families, offering plenty of space and all the essentials. We can’t wait to come back and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a serene getaway with unforgettable views!

Perfect Nature Retreat

This is an excellent location for couples wanting seclusion and the silence of nature. The inside of the cabin is amazing, but we spent most of our time on the bed swing enjoying eagles flying and the epic view of mountains and lake.

Wonderful Escape

The cabin was exactly what we were looking for. Quaint, rustic, with a fantastic view. Bring your 4x4 to make the climb up a little easier. We brought a TV to use in the evenings, but we didn't even turn it on. Go for the peace and quiet and you will not be disappointed.
