"This is a very nice cabin and very equipped. It was very clean on the inside and had all sort of items one might forget e.g phone chargers. The exterior was a little dirty with spider webs and you need an SUV 4x4 to be able to drive the road to the cabin. It is a little bit of a hassle but all in all, I would definitely recommend it. We enjoyed our stay very much and the fire pit next to the river was very relaxing. "

Pet-Friendly Cabin in the Woods w/HOT TUB! Secluded, Cozy, 2,000' Up!

Pet-Friendly Cabin in the Woods w/HOT TUB! Secluded, Cozy, 2,000' Up!

10/10 Excellent
"A perfect home for anyone looking to enjoy the calm and beauty of nature. The drive up was adventurous and that added to the excitement of the trip. It was exactly what a cabin home should be. The comfort of the living room. The bedrooms had just the right amount of space, and the beds were just right. The shower was soft- but we could be so used to maximum water pressure that we really shouldn’t compare. Everything you could want was there. This home had exactly what I wanted - a deck with chairs to sit and listen to the rain on the metal roof. Thank you for sharing your home."

10/10 Excellent
"The lodge was everything and more than we could imagine. The house is fully stocked with everything you need, no need to pack the extra stuff, from phone chargers, touletries, state of the art appliances and more. The rain shower was wonderful. Great view of the mountain. I especially enjoyed sleeping in the lens. A super comfortable bed. It was like sleeping under the stars. Such a beautiful view looking out the large window. Was not quite cold enough for the fireplace, but it is beautiful when it is turned on. Matthew ( the owner) was readily available by e mail when we needed him, we locked ourself out at night and he responded quickly and guided us on how to get back in.The location is perfect, it was so peaceful. It is a long drive up the curvy sometimes steep gravel rd, but that is part of the experiance. If you like games, he has plenty of things to do inside. A firepit to build a fire and he even provided stuff for smores.this is a very unique place and is definetly a memorable place to stay. I highly recommend!"
