The house is so spacious - lots of room for everyone to find their place Cozy .. the heating works great we were very comfortable. It is well stocked with pans, cooking spices, coffee supplies, paper goods, etc. We enjoyed the location as we had no one very close to us and the property has trails and walking paths. The owner was very responsive to our needs. We had a great time !!
Besides the owner being very helpful with communication even before we got there, she was still answering questions we had once we got there. Very clean with beautiful views. My family enjoyed themselves!
Our overall experience was amazing going to the town 4 min away, close to the lake with beautiful community, and such open space for our large family was what we needed. We got to relax and enjoy multiple small communities around the area, restaurants, pubs, and bakeries.
The only thing that could of been better a good power wash outside tables and patio/porch since the outside was the reason why we loved this place.
But again this place was perfect for our family. Thank you for leanding us your home for a weekend.

Lots of potential
The property is large and beautiful, but there was a cleanliness problem. The oven was caked in grime and bathroom vents were caked in dirt and dust. Before bed we all had to wash our feet because walking barefoot in the house meant that your feet would be black by the end of the night. The hosts seem like very lovely people, and the property truly has a lot of potential, but my family and I couldn’t get past how dirty it was. There were also a few broken items that were listed — the mini zip line being one of them. Overall, I wouldn’t stay here again unless there was a significant change how the cleaning is done. It’s a shame really because the property is so nice.
Took a team up for a competition. Lots of space to stretch out and cabin was very clean and nice. Plenty of utensils and plates. We didn’t get to enjoy most of the amenities on property but lots to do there without even leaving the cabin. Owners were great and responsive
Very welcoming because it's a homey setting. The property is just amazing! Everything was available so that our Thanksgiving dinner felt like a true holiday!
We had a mindfulness retreat here and it was amazing for it. There was plenty of space to gather together and have our own space in nature. Beautiful home, would love to have another reunion here.
What a fantastic house and property. Kids and adults had a great time and Kim the owner was very responsive throughout the entire process. The email with the door codes didn’t send like it was automated to do and Kim replied instantly to get it for us. My family cannot wait to get back up there. 2.5 acres with the National Forest as you back yard for the weekend was the change of pace my family needed.
The house was great and perfect for large groups. There were plenty of beds and restrooms to accommodate our group. I was worried reading some of the reviews about cleanliness but the house was clean when we arrived. The outdoor area is the best part of the house. There were plenty of activities for the kids and a lot of space for snow play and sledding. We also enjoyed the space to walk around and take in the outdoors. Kim was also very friendly and easy to communicate with. I can’t wait to come back.
My group of friends had a wonderful time staying at this large property over the weekend. Communication with the property manager was perfect as they were always prompt to reply and helpful. The only concerns we had were that the bed-count was a little confusing in the listing and that we were told to bring our own bedding well after booking, but otherwise, we were incredibly happy with our stay (also some of the puzzles are missing pieces - could do with a refresh) and felt very cozy and safe. The town was beautiful and the people were friendly! The property was gorgeous and there was plenty of room for outdoor recreation. We would be happy to recommend this piece of property to anyone looking for a place to stay, if only to, again, have the pleasure of working with Kim, who was amazing to communicate with throughout.
The owner got back to me right away with any questions. The property was clean, comfortable, and well-stocked with A coffee bar and all the kitchen items we needed. The yard is super fun with lots of areas to explore and fun things for kids to do, like a little tiny Zipline, a pond, a teepee. And we loved the big family area that had plenty of room for all of us to visit. Perfect!
We all had a great experience on the property and enjoyed our time there very much. Unfortunately the house wasn’t as clean as we’d hoped (the floors mainly) and we did have to pick up some trash around the property (we’ve since been told it was from the bears) We had a mix up with the linen (new covid rules) and didn’t see we had to bring our own so that was tricky.. but we made do with some blankets from target. All in all it was a great stay, however when it came to checking out we received some harsh criticism around things we were not responsible for, which was quite upsetting. We spent a long time cleaning the kitchen and ensuring the house was left better than when we arrived, so it was disappointing to hear that feedback. It is a beautiful property and perfect if you want to reconnect with nature. Our group was a totally sober and spiritual one, so it was perfect for meditation and healing. I would highly recommend this property for spiritual trip away or to getaway with a group of friends to relax and reset.
This cabin was a great space for our family to vacation. The kids had so much fun playing outside as well as in the game room. There was a lot to do outside. It was great that the property was on the north side of the mountain because there was a decent amount of snow to play in. We didn’t have to leave the cabin to find snow and fun.
This was our families 8th stay at the cabin!! And we are already planning for the 9th!! If you are a family with kids you will appreciate not having to go anywhere for snow play, hiking, sledding and so much more! This yearly trip is a tradition for our family. We LOVE the cabin and how attentive Kim is in making sure we are enjoying ourselves.
Exceeded expectations! Upon booking, Kim was in frequent communication ensuring all questions/concerns were addressed prior to stay providing immediate comfort. Place offers plenty of indoor/outdoor space which makes for wonderful family memories...especially while playing in endless amounts of snow surrounded by awesome views! Downstairs game room is ideal nightcap entertainment center for all - featuring projector, foosball table, shuffleboard, and more! Will definitely return in near future.
My family, friends and I stood at this home for a 3 day weekend. The home is absolutely amazing. We were a group of 18 and we had soooooo much space to hang out. The property is huge, with a volley ball court, hammock, and multiple outdoor seating areas. The house is 3 levels and is pretty well stocked. I would recommend bringing your own Tupperware for left overs that’s the only thing I needed from home. The house has many large serving platters, pots pans and plates which come in handy. The back yard is a great hill side where you can hike and explore, their is no need to leave the house the wilderness is right in your back yard. My family and friends enjoyed every minute of our stay. Kimberly was always available and responded quickly with any questions or concerns. The lower level of the home is like a game room with a shuffle board that we played ALL WEEKEND, a foosball table and a projector where we watched movies at night. We are definitely looking forward to going back next winter. We didn’t want to go back to the city!
Great property that backs up against the national forest. Truely a great place to unplug from all the craziness in the world right now. Great for large parties. Communication with Kim was great, she was very quick in responding to all questions and concerns. All in all a great trip. One thing that could make this place even better would be to up grade the rooms with new mattresses.
From the moment I stepped into the cabin I thought, “I could live here!” It felt so warm and homey, even though it was big enough to house our extended family for Christmas. We went on hikes around the property and through the woods and even took a long walk into the village. The game room had a huge projector screen where we watched Christmas movies and football, and also played shuffleboard and foosball. The beds were comfortable and the place was immaculate. The coffee bar was used a lot! Kim, the owner, was so sweet and very helpful if/when I had any questions. I would absolutely want to stay here again.
Wonderful home beautiful scenery over all great place to be I enjoyed every second of my stay , my kids and family enjoyed it favorite part well we don’t have one it was all unbelievable we will definitely be going back this house was fully equipped and exceeded our expectations we simply LOVED IT !
