What an incredible place! Absolutely beautiful and private. There are a couple of other properties on the same road but they are spaced out very well and you can't see another place at all from this one, at night you can't even see lights from another place. We loved it for several reasons, but one was because we were able to bring our dogs with us and they were able to run around on the porch out back and still be secure. This cabin is very well done, it's decorated impeccably and has literally everything that you might could need. There's a grocery store and restaurants in town which is a fairly quick drive, but once you get back up on the ridge it's like youre in another world. I just can't recommend this place enough. We will absolutely be coming back.
