Leave the cabin/yard in same condition I present 2 U. I should only have to do a basic clean. No activities that would cause repairs or replacements.

Price and communication were fantastic. Electa even notified me early in the day that the house was already clean and we could check in early; that was MUCH appreciated. We got together to do a lot of baking, and the kitchen was well stocked; better than most rentals. There is also a huge counter with lots of space. The only potential downside is the major highway fairly close by. The deck would have been great to sit out on, but the traffic was kind of loud for that.

About the host

Hosted by Electa Taylor

Host profile image
Hi. My name is Electa Taylor. I like seeing people happy, enjoying life, and having family time, There is personal happiness in knowing I play a part in this. I've been in this business for almost 5 years now. I have kept super host status for most of this time period. I would love an opportunity to be a part of your vacation experience. As the host, property manager, and cleaner, I provide a clean, comfortable, and safe place for guests. I can be there in an estimated time frame of 45 minutes if there's any issues during a stay. I strive for you to have an experience that you would want to come back to and share with others.

Why they chose this property

Its home away from home feeling when I stay. My neighbors have been nice. I have a good view from my back porch. And the cabin sits to where I don't have to travel too far to get to things I enjoy or need. There's convenience in selecting this property verse seclusion from everything.

What makes this property unique

The cabin overlooks the mountains and highway. I find it is as interesting to vehicle watch as it is to people watch. Antique vehicles are the coolest to see but no telling what you might see. The cabin feels private. Everything including my neighbors are at a distance. I like how the cabin sits where I can access the highway easy. Especially on snow days. My favorite stores and adventures are not that far whether I go right or left on the highway. Lastly, the cabin sits between two fire departments and two hospitals. I feel comfortable and safe when staying here.
