This was the perfect cozy mountain getaway for our family. Everything about this cabin was great. The host did a great job of communicating and making sure everything was set up for us, and the cabin was very well stocked with extra linens and everything we could need. Could not have been a better time away with the family. Hope to come back in the future!

Wonderful place! Rooms were comfy and the decor was so fun - all log cabin. Full kitchen with a wonderful dining table. The outdoor deck was to die for. We enjoyed the hot tub too a couple of times. Place was close to a small town called Cedar Crest and not far from the Balloon Fiesta area. I would recommend this place to anyone and also stay here again.

This authentic log cabin was so comfortable! The host was so accommodating and responsive to my emails. You will not long for anything here... spices, pots and pans, laundry, kitchen appliances, the best comforters on the beds, comfy pillows, TV and strong wifi. Beautiful views and a cute farmers market that serves an amazing breakfast near by. One of the best vrbo's I've stayed at! I highly recommend it!

Can't beat sitting on the beautiful deck with a glass of wine enjoying the mountainside view. (Although the hot tub gave it a run for the money.)

Semi-annual Retreat

Wonderful property. Quiet, serene, well maintained. Three guys get together for a retreat twice a year since we started with Promise Keepers in the 1990's. This property is perfect for our retreats. We have already reserved it for our Fall get together.

This gem of a log cabin is not only spa-like, it is plush, cozy, and a welcoming spot for family meetups and getaways. The blankets are cozy, the towels are plush, the sheets are thick cotton, the pillow selection is great, and all amenities are there. Top-tier cooking equipment and plenty of supplies helped us feel at home. The bathrooms were beautiful and well-appointed, but the star of the show was the hot tub. We lounged there under the pines for cocktail hour and coffee/tea time! We had some great discussions on the porch, some of us using the throw blankets that were supplied and just had a beautiful time. Our host was excellent: prompt, and extremely thoughtful. Our day trip to Santa Fe on the Turquoise Trail was a breeze, but we were just as happy to come back to Cedar Crest. Grocery shopping at the Triangle Market was close and convenient.
