Basic, comfortable way to stay in the area

Everyone in my group was a big fan of the cabin. There is a terrific porch with a beautiful mountain view, a cozy sitting area with a wood stove, a functional kitchen, and perfectly comfy bedrooms. Jess was a very welcoming host who told us all we needed to know about the property. There is another cabin just a few yards away from this one, but we didn't find that it killed the secluded mountaintop vibe in any way. Don't be afraid of the long, windy, gravel road up. It's well maintained and, at least in fair weather, any car should make it up easily.

Mountaintop Ranch Review

Overall great! The cabin was rustic, charming and clean. Only complaint was a minor ladybug infestation, but we were grateful it was only ladybugs and not roaches. Property owner was very kind and communicative. However, the host could not be reached so we opted to call the owner to tell her we were on the way. Property is absolutely beautiful, but very difficult to find. We lost cell service and had to navigate narrow backroads at night to find it. The road up the mountain is also bumpy, rocky and treacherous. Directions provided in Vrbo were very helpful. Overall amazing stay. Beautiful scenery, authentic lodging and perfect mountain vibes.

Better than anticipated

Based on some reviews I was picturing very rustic/not very comfortable but I was pleasantly surprised! The Cabin, while rustic, was very comfortable. Beds/pillow were very comfy. Heating system was sufficient plus there was a wood burning stove (it was rather warm the weekend we were there). Internet service wasn't great but it was good enough to do check-ins with family, recipe lookups, mapping, etc.. Jess made the check in easy and took care of us when we needed wine glasses (even delivered some chocolate). The road up to the cabin was steep but my Ford Edge did perfectly fine, even after a rainy day. We hiked around the property and got some company from a very friendly ranch dog. Since this was a last minute trip I didn't look up what activities were available at the ranch. I'd love to go back to go horse back riding and my husband and to do some skeet shooting. Overall, I would highly recommend this cabin!
