Loved the Mountain View and the outside sitting areas. Also like being just a short drive from town yet felt like we were in the woods with privacy. The kitchen had everything we needed. Did not see a hot tub? Was in the listing but we did not see one - but it wasnât important to us.

Reviewer Comments:
This property is close to town which is nice but I didn't see the value. For what I paid, I feel ripped off. Everything was old and run down. All of the furniture was incredibly uncomfortable. The beds especially were terrible. I left a day early just to get a good nights sleep. Sad inventory of kitchen equipment, although they had decent pots/pans and coffee/espresso maker. My stay was during Christmas so I did appreciate the christmas tree. Other visitors should note the path up to the house is all cobble, extremely uneven and not very safe. One of us ended up with a sprained ankle which seemed of no concern to the rental agency.
This was my second time staying here with my family and it was perfect. The cabin was well equipped and we didn't need to bring anything besides our clothes! I was able to cook all meals in the kitchen. The location was perfect and close to town but far enough away from noise to make a peaceful experience. Will go there again!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're so glad to hear that your second stay was just as perfect as the first. It's great to know that the cabin had everything you needed and that you enjoyed the peaceful location. We can't wait to welcome you and your family back again!
Nice and comfortable place surrounded by huge pine trees. The decor was a throw back to the 70s, but I kind of liked that. Nicely equipped kitchen. Comfortable beds.
I really liked the quiet, secluded location. The house was very clean and comfortable. The deck is great for enjoying the afternoon sun. Iâll definitely come again.

Beautiful property and very clean and comfortable home. We loved the spacious second-floor great room with large windows looking out into the trees and mountains. Both bedrooms open onto the large front deck where we enjoyed morning coffee. The jacuzzi tub was wonderful after some long days and we were very pleased with the good quality cooking ware and well-stocked kitchen. Definitely hope to come back again.
This cabin had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. Kids had a lot of fun with the ps3 and Wii that were available. Also, the cabin was very private surrounded by trees and nature.
Wonderful experience. The outdoor deck is amongst the pine tress and we could hear the wind in the pines. Very romantic and peaceful.

My husband and I really enjoyed staying at this quiet cabin with views of trees out all the windows. The kitchen is extremely well equipped which was great as we cooked all our meals in. The fireplace was warm and cozy. The cabin was very clean and all the appliances and toilet are new. Couch and bed were comfortable. We would stay here again. đ
It's good only for 3 person not 6, there's one quinn and one full uncomfortable bed , sofa and furniture are way to old .

little get-away
Cabin is quiet and cozy-secluded area surrounded by trees- cabin a bit run down-remote control issues, no batteries or low batteries- damp towels hanging in bathroom-damp sheets and towels in dryer- kitchen and bath very clean
Check-in would have been better at 3:00 and honestly too far to walk to town where you would have to walk on the main road without a sidewalk, unsafe.
Lovely area, Mountain Viewâs and tall trees⌠cozy comfortable cottage- homey! Great restaurant- Ferros with wonderful jazz! Tuesday nights! Many restaurants closed early March- trips to desert an hour or so away- beautiful drive down the mountain! Peaceful, serene and friendly people! All in all we enjoyed it and will return- Wi-Fi good as I worked a few days. Kathy and Gary

Nice cabin but very difficult to get to with the heavy snowfall. The cabin was adequately stocked. The lot was beautiful but right next to another cabin.

Hello and Thank you for your review. We are glad you enjoyed the cabin and that it was adequately stocked. During the winter we do recommend AWD/4WD to get to the property. There is significant distance from any other cabin for adequate privacy to enjoy the scenery on your front deck. We hope to host you again, the summer time is an excellent time to visit the mountains!
Warm Regards,

Thank you so much for your kind review! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful fall colors, the cozy setting, and the convenience of being close to Alpaca Coffee & Tea. Itâs wonderful to know that our team, especially Gabby and the maintenance staff, were able to assist you during your stay.
We also appreciate your suggestion about adding reading lamps in the living room and will definitely look into that for future improvements. Thank you for recommending our property, and weâd love to welcome you back for another stay in the future!
Cabin was spacious and fireplace was great. Heater worked great, especially with the cold weather outside. You do go through a patch of dirt road and it was hard to get the cars up the hilly ramp to park. Definitely recommend bringing chains roe that section or 4wd. We bought salt to spread on the ice and a shovel to clear some if the ice out. Other than that, ot was a great stay, everything worked great, grilled some meat outside.
