What a wonderful cabin! It is nestled in a private property with other cabins all with a bear theme. The property was everything we had hoped! We loved it and hope to go back some time. The fact that it allows dogs was crucial for us, so thank you for allowing us to bring along our furry family members.
Wonderful property with everything you could ever need in a rental. Multiple properties on site so would be a great multi family vacation. Bring your creek shoes and take the gravel road beside the creek for a great spot to play in the creek. We would definitely stay here again.
Beautiful cabin with a wonderful open format, well stocked kitchen, comfortable king bed. Great heat and gas fireplace. The outside fireplace is awesome!! Strong wifi. Loved our romantic weekend away!
Such a beautiful area! It’s a drive, however totally worth it. Internet worked great. It was so much fun bringing our dogs down to the creek. Would definitely recommend and come back!
All of the small touches at this amazing property did not go unnoticed! We had a great stay
