Beautiful home in the mountains. Comfortable and well decorated. Kitchen is equipped with everything you need. House was spotless and better than the description and photos. Will stay here again.

It was such a beautiful home...we had 3 couples and it was so nice to have multiple areas to hang out and a nice big table to eat together. Would have been nice to have a few more starter items like some coffee, salt and pepper and larger trash bags...
Getting the trash out was a bit complicated...
Beautiful views!
