Amazing view close to endless fun

Our group of six had an amazing trip. The views off the back deck are stunning and the hot tub was lovely in the snow. The cabin itself was very clean and well appointed, and very close to many hikes and breweries. The Greybeard staff was very accommodating and helpful as well. We can’t wait to go back!

Great neighborhood and house with a view

We loved our stay at this house. The view is breathtaking. The house had everything we needed and was well marked with instructions for operating. We enjoyed the lake, waterfall and little hike. We even saw a mama bear with a tiny cub!
