Best cabin experience ever!!
This vacation trip was made absolutely wonderful by our decision to pick this cabin. I wanna say thank you to Eric and Claudia for sharing the cabin with us. Started out with the adventure thru the back roads ( feels like an enchanted forest) and ending up on a very large very private cabin with the most beautiful land and views. The cabin was gorgeous soon as you walk in.. we adored it instantly and it had all the items needed and plenty more! Walking to the big creek was a blast and the water is beautiful. Then after a campfire and we went in and enjoyed the hot tub while listening to the creek flow below. So tranquil and the most relaxing place we have ever stayed!! We definitely highly recommend this place and ill definitely be reserving it again soon. Best trip ever!!

Beautiful mountain escape!
The house was even cuter than the pictures! You can even hear the stream from the house. The kids loved walking down to the creek. If you are looking for a peaceful, quiet escape, this is the place for you!

We had a very relaxing stay at this beautiful cabin. It is remote, private and secluded but the Wi-Fi and direct TV worked well. We had everything we needed in this well stocked home away from home. Listening to the stream while rocking on the screened porch was really soothing. The last mile or so is gravel but we had no trouble without 4-wheel drive. The only negative I have is that my husband couldn’t get comfortable on the living room furniture and kept a slight backache. But, hey we’re seniors after all. Our pup was very happy on the trails and gives them a 👍

Wonderful hideaway
What a wonderful hidden gem. We fell asleep to the sounds of the babbling stream. Our kids loved the hot tub. It was less than 30 min to I credible hiking. The owner is super accommodating too!

Spring Break Getaway
Great property to spend a couple days away. My youngest son loved the creek and just roaming around on the property. Plenty of space for everyone. The whole family loved using the hot tub.

Wonderful Mountain Getaway
My wife and I have now stayed at "Just a Step Away" three or four times. We book a long weekend here every January. We love that the cabin is quiet and secluded. It lets us get away from it all for a few days. Despite being quiet and secluded, the cabin is well-appointed, with comfortable beds and furnishings. The kitchen has just about everything you could want. We love the hot tub, even in the January cold. And, there's nothing like spending your days curled up on the couch with a good book and a roaring fire going in the fireplace. We find "Just a Step Away" the perfect place to spend a few days recharging our batteries. We can't wait to stay there again next year.

Everything was wonderful. We enjoyed the peacefulness of the woods and surrounding creek. The cabin was the best stocked we have ever stayed in, was very clean, and the beds were comfortable. Thank you for sharing your cabin with us!
