We have an amazing time at The Retreat. It was a beautiful view, great location and the kids had an amazing time. The house can fit a larger group and next time we’ll be sure to bring more family. There were plenty of things to do including horseback riding and hiking. The house was clean and had awesome decor. We’ll be back!

Great view but a little disappointed in property anenities
The house was amazing and had everything you needed…. Shampoo, coffee, creamer, towels, spices and other cooking basics like oil/butter. Bummed that they only do horseback riding and we’re booked both weekends we were there, the creek was too shallow to tube and the big fishing pond was dried up. The views were amazing and all the hams were appreciated on the rainy days.

Thank you for your feedback! We are glad you enjoyed your stay, and we look forward to having you again! Sorry you couldn't get a reservation for horse back riding, in the future we recommend calling the week before. Unfortunately we lost our big pond in a terrible flood late last year, but our small pond is stocked!

Reviewer Comments:
This was the best family vacation we have ever had! The place was amazing! Beds were comfortable, it was very clean, tons of amenities, hot tube was so clean. The downstairs was so useful for the kiddos! We ate in most of the time other than the wedding. The restaurant could be a little more robust but the customer service was beyond amazing. Everyone was so nice and accommodating. The only down side was the roads getting there. I had no idea that the road would be that long or dangerous getting to the cabin. The driveway is also very steep. After we were there a few days we got used to it, but visiting the other family cabins was a long drive. But even with that being said we will for sure come back!! Hopefully every year!!

Reviewer Comments:
Experience was great and gave me the opportunity to rest, unwind, and recuperate from my sometimes stressful routine. Everything was beautiful and well furnished. There is one thing I would like to see improved. The TV service in the Living Room was outstanding and different than in the Master Bedroom. The Living Room television could be a little bit larger for us over 65 year old. I also serviced 20 years active duty in the United States Marine Corps. The choice of channels in the Master Bedroom is very limited. I believe having the same TV lineups in your Master Bedroom as in the Living Room would definitely would provide a good return on your investment. I mostly slept in the Living Room because I was watching the Downtown Abbey series which I could not get in the Master Bedroom. Lastly the incoming telephone number for The Retreat needs to be posted more VISIBLY. Wish I could have stayed longer!!!FIB 06/07/2022

I can't even express how great this cabin was! We had needed a family vacation for a long time and are always skeptical about places we have never been before. We chose The Retreat because of the photos and views and honestly, they didn't hold a candle to the real thing! This cabin exceeded our expectations in so many ways! It was extremely clean, well stocked with everything except food. We will definitely be back!

The Retreat is beautiful on the inside with an amazing view from the deck. My BFF and I enjoyed a weekend away to rest and recharge. It was perfect!
We loved the house and property. The house was well appointed and very comfortable. It rained the entire time but we had everything we needed at the house to have a wonderful family weekend.
The only negative thing I can say about the house is it’s infested with stink bugs.

Thank you for your feedback! Our beautiful mountains are home to many of nature's wonders…loved and not so loved! As the seasons change and the temps drop some of the homes are more prone to flying ladybugs, stink bugs, and flies which we remove prior to check-in. Some days they are worse than others and re-emerge in the warm, sunny windows. These guys are harmless, but a nuisance nevertheless. Very sorry it was an issue for you. In the future give a call to our office and we will send up someone to vacuum them up (again)…Thanks for your feedback!! Hope to see you again soon!
Really a fabulous, breathtaking view. Sunsets and star gazing were phenomenal! The unit has two k cup coffee makers. Bring k cups! Kitchen was otherwise extremely well stocked otherwise. Everything you need! Hot tub was great as was fire pit and grill! Game room is a really nice bonus! Kept the kids entertained all weekend! Drive up to the property is steep and winding, be prepared in inclement weather. I would suggest bringing a pillow from home for adults, honestly my only complaint. Pillows in the master bedroom were nice but in other beds not so comfortable. Really fantastic location and views! Pretty clean although any mountain property is going to have stink bugs and we did, they didn't bother us much though and it wasn't a big deal.
Thanks for your hospitality!
Really enjoyed our stay!
