Wonderful, private cabin in the mountains
Whiskey River was as beautiful as shown in the photos. It was cozy, comfortable, and a wonderful retreat. It met the needs of my "I need to get up in the mountains!!" itch. Not a complaint, but an FYI: the outdoor 'Edison bulb' lights stopped working. We left them unplugged. Not sure if there was a circuit tripped (we couldn't find a breaker panel to check). The kitchen faucet is getting loose: may want to tighten it up, so it works better. The instructions for the pellet stove and projector are out-dated. We figured it all out, but had to do our own research. There is also no dishwasher, though the instructions say to start it upon leaving the premises. Again, not complaining -- just providing information on our stay. I gave only four stars for cleanliness: there were several dirty dishes in the cabinets and silverware drawer. We had to wash everything prior to use, because they were filthy. We were shocked to find these items in the otherwise clean, tidy place. We know we left the dishes cleaner than we found them (scrubbed off cooking/baked-on grime from several pots and pans). We left some of our own coffee for the next guest to use. (Only one pot was complimentary? Seriously?) Other than the dirty dishes and the FYI items mentioned above, we very much enjoyed our stay, and the service and communication we received from Pinon.

Awesome place to stay
We had a great time—such a cool cabin. Our favorite part was the big yard and deck. We played yard games and ate food outside at the big table. The inside was clean and well-decorated!

A very nice stay
My daughter, dogs, and I all enjoyed our stay. Great view of the Santa Christos, deer, and night sky. Cabin is well appointed and we loved having the windows open at night.

Perfect Summer Basecamp
We wanted a secluded location to relax and decompress, while allowing us to travel around the region. This was perfect. Exactly as described and excellent hosts. Could not have asked for a better experience and excited to get back.

Peace and quiet with a view!
This property was just as described. It was large enough for our family of four and our dog. The house was clean and the surroundings were peaceful. The only other souls we saw were the deer that walked quietly by the house each day. This is a wonderful place for a quiet getaway.
