Getting lost cabin getaway

The Cabin was perfect. Clean and stocked with some essentials. Firewood available for the fire place and fire pit. Be prepared to get groceries before you arrive as this cabin is very remote. We had no cell service for 8 miles surrounding the cabin. Getting inside was a little difficult as the key pad didn’t work and no cell service. We had to drive back out many miles to call and get the key code. Owners were wonderful. If you want to get off the grid and get away, this is your place.

Hidden gem

My soon to be and I stayed four days at this beautiful and quite hidden mountaintop cabin with the intent of searching nearby areas to get married and hopefully eventually move to. That being said,we did not get to enjoy the cabin as much as we would have Liked. The limited time we were there was absolutely beautiful

A break from chemo to a wonderful mountain cabin

My mother has fought cancer for the last few years. This year it came back in her lungs. She took a couple of weeks off from treatment to give her body a break and relax. This cabin provided the most perfect place for her to rest and enjoy the mountain air. Not to mention my father and I are lovers of the mountains as well. Dan and Shayla were the perfect hosts, great commutation and very kind. The cabin was beautifully decorated and clean. We had a fabulous stay.
