So much to say, this place was amazing. The bar was so cute, can bars be cute? Our host went above and beyond, my friends got married and this was a celebration for them and our host got a cake for this special occasion. I had asked him and he didn’t hesitate. We plan on coming back again. It’s definitely a hunters paradise

My husband and and my bestie and I vrbo a lot and THIS was a good one! Great vibes, great host, great communication and the place was adorable!! Even the fire wood delivery guy was a sweetheart! One tip: if coming from Confluence, do NOT follow Google Maps to old creeks road- it was treacherous but my Subaru Outback made the climb!!

The cabin had a strong odor, very musty, not sure if it was mold or not. It was so strong my wife and I couldn't stay, not even 1 night. Also, the cabin was hotter than the outdoors and only had a window A/C in the front room. Certainly not big enough to cool the back bedrooms. Windowsills were filthy. I emailed the host but no response.On a side note, we found a room at the Summit Resort, which was great.

Check in at 4pm out at 11:am only stayed one night. Very clean, quiet, easy to find and great location. Unless you stay more than one night you dont really get a chance to enjoy the place. It was chilly, it went from 75 degrees the day before to 35 degrees the next day, we really enjoyed the fire place, it was gas. I love having outdoor fires, but that wasn't possible it thunderstormed and rained. The gas fireplace was an awesome secondary plan, and very comfortable. I would visit again..

Great place to stay and take a break and rest after a busy day in the mountains.

This place was perfect to stay at to rest and relax after a busy day in the mountains. It has all the essentials and the beds were very comfortable. Walter was very quick to respond to any questions we had before and during our stay. Thank you!
