Cozy Mountain Retreat! Lake & Mountain Views, Pet friendly! Fiber internet!!

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful views and wonderfully relaxing stay. Everything needed was provided. Comfortable beds and plenty of towels. Not going to ding the owners but on VRBO it states that it is a 17 minute walk to the lake. There is not a route that can take you there in 17 minutes . The only way to actually get to the lake is to the marina, about 8 minute drive or 45- 50 minute walk one way with lots of hills. All the property along the lake has private propery posted so unable to access the lake ."

10/10 Excellent

"The hosts were great. Very responsive in giving detailed directions into the property and entry into the cabin. Quick response with any questions or concerns. The cabin was very clean, tidy and cozy. Kitchen fully stocked with anything you need to cook meals. Beds were extremely comfortable. This property is private, surrounded by woods and has a beautiful view through the big windows on the front side of the cabin, especially looking out from the loft. The pool table on the lower level was fun. My husband and I along with our 2 dogs got some much needed rest and relaxation while there. Looking forward to going back again."
