The house was exactly as described. The one very small situation that we had was resolved very, very quickly. It was truly a dog-friendly rental.

This was a great place for family. We really enjoyed the outdoor space playing cornhole and having campfires great location. The upstairs bedroom is a little tight for four adults, but overall a great location to get out and see the area

Cozy winter stay in the woods

We enjoyed our time and the place was cozy and functional for our group of 8. Great use of space, clean and close to each ski hill. Had a great fire outside in the snow thanks to the wood provided. We hope to come back!

Good

Overall the cabin was nice and spacious for 6 of us. Very clean. Host was wonderful The grill was not working when we originally got there and we let them know and within 24 hours they came with a new one. Location can be hard to find with google/apple maps, due to no fault of the host, just something to know is to drop a pin when getting there. Otherwise, location is fantastic, 5 minutes from the golf courses, 20 minutes from downtown Bellaire. We really enjoyed our time!
