Home away from home

The cabin is perfect for us! This was our second stay here. And we’ve already booked it for next year too! Cannot say enough good things about the owner/manager. Can’t wait to be back again soon!

Peaceful mountain getaway

Overall the stay was awesome but there is no wi fi available which stunk. Beds are pretty small and uncomfortable. My husband is 6 ft tall and both of us in a bed was tough. Overall i would recommend.

Taylor Park Ride

The house was in the perfect location! Close enough to get to the store & our other friends staying in cabins. Plenty of bedrooms, big kitchen & a great living room for gathering; as well as big kitchen table. Having the washer & dryer (plus detergent) available was an added bonus. Would definitely stay here again!

Homey mountain house getaway

What can I say... we had an easy check in, big open kitchen and big living room and dining area. 4 bedrooms with doors and one with curtains, double beds in two rooms and twins in the others with 3 comfortable couches in the living room with a wood burning stove. Plenty of towels and plenty of things in the kitchen to be able to piece together and cook meals. Enough space to park two trucks with trailers and 3 side by sides, trails right from the front door and easy acces to road and trails... beautiful mountains all around. We stayed here with two other couples and were in the area for a Roads and Trails event with a large group... sadly we lost two of our dear friends from the larger group that had come to the area for the event... it was a tragic and horrific loss and my husband and i were on scene with them as they passed away... as you can imagine the gravity of this, the trauma and emotional distress... we were very grateful to have this place to come to and just regroup and pray and process, the fireplace, open setting, down homeness of the spacious cabin a tremendous help! Felt very comfortable and that we could just totally relax and feel the warmth of the fire and heal. Because there is no wifi and for us there was no cell service also... my son and his family had Verizon Which Worked Great, but we have straight talk, it did Not work there!, which with the two fatalities posed a problem. But we were able to tether to their phones. All in all perfect for our needs

Perfect for riding trails

This place is perfect for riding trails!! The trails are accessible from the house and there is no need to trailer. The only thing I would suggest is upgrading the beds and adding another full or queen bed in one of the rooms. The kitchen is large and allowed for al of us to be cooking or meal prepping. Large dinner table accommodated all 6 of us easily, plenty of towels and linens. The neighborhood is quiet. Loved it here- would definitely stay again!!

Communication was horrible

The property was simply okay. Odd sleeping arrangements. Host stated, in access message, that “grandmother” lived next to this property and could assist in any way. Learned that “grandmother” had passed several months ago and a nephew lived next door. Nephew was not helpful at all and actually wouldn’t even answer the door when we knocked. All of the beds were covered in what appeared to be dog hair, while attempting to wash this bedding upon arrival, learned that the washing machine did not work. Contacted host who phoned a neighbor who came over and verified the dog hair and that the washing machine didn’t work. Neighbor broke into a storage room where a few clean sheets were found. With these and our own sheets we were able to make the beds. Another neighbor stopped by later and again verified the washer was not working. When contacting the host, at the two phone numbers they provided, about the washer, no calls were answered, no messages resulted in a return phone call nor a response through the app. Were riding the trails daily so the washing machine was a necessity. Checked out 4 days later and have yet heard back from the host/owner who lives hours away from the property. Poorly managed. Do not recommend. Will not be staying here again.
