Great Family Getaway

Our family of ten (ranging in age from 2 months to 63!) fit perfectly in this homey cabin. We enjoyed the fire, hot tub and games. Our hosts were very responsive and everything was as described. I highly recommend this getaway-- regardless of the season!!

Spacious and Quiet

This house was a perfect fit for our group of 10 guys on a ski weekend. The living area is spacious with large couches. The porch is large and gets you out into the forest. There were 3 large rooms with single large beds, one small room with 2 beds, and a large room with 2 large beds and 4 bunk beds. There is a hot tub on the back enclosed porch area - clean and hot. The owner was easy to work with.

We had a great time at the Sitzmark Ranch.

The property was perfect for our family vacation. Playground, volleyball, and basketball for the kids and fire pit, hot tub, and covered porch for the adults. The location was great, easy in and out. The design of the house is a little odd, but the tower was worth it!

Awesome! Beautiful Home!

This property and location was great. The property is comfortable and spacious. We were a party of 12 and still had space. It was about 10 mins in to town with very easy access.

Great living room space, porch and outdoor activity spaces! Note that this is really a 4 bedroom, not 5 bedroom, home. The 5th room has 2 twin beds, but is the hallway and only way to get to the large multiple beds room, as well as the room with bed and sleeper couch.

A Fabulous Family Reunion

The property was more remote than the listing made it appear...something that delighted us (but it was still only 5 minutes from the grocery store). The house was beautiful, but we delighted even more in walking around the woods and visiting the teepee and seeing some deer.
