Clean and beautifully decorated home! We really appreciated the comfortable beds and air conditioning! Enjoyed our morning coffee on the deck.Loved the location - very close to Pinecrest lake.We would stay here again!
We enjoyed everything about this property.Having done many VRBO’s I took some of my own “necessities”, i.e spices, foil, baggies, but this location was really well stocked and was very clean.It was well remodeled and felt very warm and inviting. We have so many wonderful memories we would definitely return.

This house is amazing!!! From the moment we walked in the fun began because it was welcoming, spacious, well stocked and created for comfort! We appreciated the A/C and LOVED the hot tub. There were baby gates (which we needed) and games and beautiful beds/rooms. We would definitely stay here again.
Second stay for two families at this comfortable cabin. Great to have a hot tub and grill. The deck provides an extra eating, outdoor seating/ bird and nature watching area.

Such an awesome cabin!
Great spot! Great house! It was 4 miles from the lake and is a beautiful spot to get away from life. The beds are so comfortable. Great host. Great house. 100% recommended.
We really enjoyed our stay at the Cold Springs Escape. It was easy to get in and out, even with fresh snow, and plenty of room. The kids looooooved sleeping in the loft and there was lots of room in the other three bedrooms. The kitchen was well-appointed, but not huge (in case you want to cook a multi-course meal). We would definitely come back again!
This property worked out well for our family group of 11. It’s in a great location and easy to park at. The 3 K bedrooms were comfortable for the adults. The loft for the kids is tight (basically open attic space) with tweens but we made it work. Everything was clean and as advertised. Our local contact was helpful and accommodating. Great budget property we would stay at again.
We had a great time staying at this cabin! We were impressed by how well-stocked it was, including all of the kitchen items and spices you'd need, tons of games, televisions, wifi, etc. It was exactly as pictured and described and a very comfortable place to stay, especially with the portable AC unit to help cool the cabin on hot days. It's in a great location that's easy to find off the highway. We would stay at this cabin again!
Blizzard conditions outside and we were warm and cozy inside. Great place. Responsive host. Many extras. Wish we had booked a longer stay!

Great house
Great house. Very clean with all the necessary amenities. Loft ceiling is very low so def for small kids only. Location perfect, walk to store n quick drive to lake, in great little neighbor for after dinner walks or kids bike rides.
Excellent property. Close to Pinecrest Lake and Twain Harte. Nice restaurant 2mi. down the road and convenience/gas across the street. Very quiet at night. Well equipped and comfortable. Only problems, small gas stove didn't work, game controller upstairs didn't work, and hot tub too sudsy. HVAC worked well. Very enjoyable. Management very responsive. Would love to stay again.
This place was incredible. The decoration was phenomenal and there was careful attention to every detail (even down to the small touches like ear plugs in the bathroom). I stay at a lot of rentals and one thing that really stood out here was that they make it feel like home. Unlike some rentals that buy the cheapest utensils, appliances, and bedding they can save a few bucks, this place goes all out and makes you feel like it is home. All their appliances are quality, the beds and sheets are really nice, and the hot tub and firepit put it over the top! You can tell they really want you to enjoy your stay and go the extra mile to make it happen. Darren was super responsive and kind to our texts as well.
I highly recommend this place. Our family LOVED it and we will be back!
The house is in a great location right off hwy 108 but you don’t hear the road at all. Flat driveway which was great cause it was snowing hard for us. The street was plowed quickly as well. About a 15 min drive to Dodge Ridge Ski Resort and 20 min to Leland Snow Play. We were 5 adults and 5 kids. The kids loved the loft area. Kitchen and fridge are a bit small and there’s only dining seating for 5. Showers are also a bit small. The hot tub was great. The local host was responsive to texts and we were able to get a later checkout at 11am. Overall a great place to stay with young kids and very close to skiing.
Everything was ready for us and in good conditions. This cabin kept us safe during the snowstorm. Power cut out in the morning of our departure and the generator kicked in a minute later.

Best Cozy Cabin!
We loved staying here. We are a family of 5 adults and 3 young kids. There are no steep areas for your car to drive up. The house was right off the main road.l and well plowed. The kids loved the attic space with the TV and Nintendo. There were wireless charging stations throughout the house which was a nice touch. The beds were so comfortable! We didn't have any problems with hearing the house or rooms. We used the hot tub every single night after skiing and it overlooked the backyard which was beautiful. The kitchen was stocked with everything you need. We would stay here again.
