Hi Martin! Thank you for booking Elk Ridge Cabin! Glad you enjoyed your stay! I was wondering if you meant to leave a 1-star review or if that was done by accident? Please let me know if you had any trouble with your stay so I can make sure to fix it. :) Hope to see you guys again! Thank you kindly, Nikki

Upon arrival had to contact host for access to home. Earlier confirmation e-mail said key was on site, it was a key code lock. Fireplace did not work, which would have been a nice extra heat source.

Cute and cozy!

Very cute and quiet, perfect little neighborhood. Loved sitting outside and hearing the near by stream and the surrounding views. Only downside we would notice the neighbor sitting and watching every move we made, was starting to wonder if he was the property owner.

Amazing Cabin!

We had the best stay in this lovely cabin! It was comfortable, clean, and provided the perfect place to relax and connect as a family. We enjoyed cooking s’mores at the outside fire pit and watching the rabbits and an elk that were just outside the cabin. This is simply the best rental I have ever stayed at!

Weekend Getaway

This little cabin was beautiful! My children fell in love, both with location and decorations within. It was very well stocked with everything from pots, pans and dishes to plenty of towels and toiletries. Great location as well, the Soco Falls, Tube world and everything else we wanted to do was all very close. I took my kids for a birthday surprise getaway and we will definitely be back again, they had so much fun tbey were sad to meave.

Great little cabin

We really enjoyed our stay at this cabin. It’s so quaint and cozy. Everything was clean and had nice decorations (we were there right after Christmas/New Years). The beds were comfy and we had everything we needed. It’s very close to tubing and to the road that takes you to the ski resort, which is very convenient. . The owner was responsive and flexible.
