Communication with Dawn before, during, and after our arrival was excellent. We checked in easily with the information provided. The cabin was perfect, the kitchen had all the utensils we needed for cooking our meals. We all slept comfortably and enjoyed a peaceful stay, which was just what we needed.

Outstanding Cabin

This was the best VRBO property we have visited. The cabin is clean, neat, well-appointed, and comfortable. The hosts communicated with us very well. We hope to visit the area again in the future, and would seek out this cabin as first choice for lodging.

Outstanding cabin with cozy amenities

I spent a wonderful week at this cozy cabin nestled in the mountains of South Fork and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. The cabin itself had a warm, rustic feel with modern amenities making it an inviting atmosphere for all the guests. The deck outside was a highlight of the cabin, with views of the surrounding peaks and wildlife that on occasion will graze around the yard at safe distances. I looked forward to each brisk morning when I was able to enjoy my coffee outside on the deck and take in the mountain air. The cabin was equipped with everything we needed for the week, including a fully stocked kitchen, comfortable bedrooms, and a spacious living area perfect for relaxing after a full day of exploring. The location couldn’t have been better, with opportunities for a variety of activities within a several minutes’ drive. The hosts were very welcoming and ensured our stay was comfortable. We left feeling rejuvenated and excited to return.
