Thank you so much for the wonderful 5-star review! We’re so happy you and your family had such a peaceful and relaxing getaway. There’s something special about slowing down at the cabin, sitting out on the deck, taking in the views, and hopefully catching some of the local wildlife wandering by. 😊 It means a lot to us that you felt comfortable, safe, and at home during your stay.

Cute cottage with one of the best lake views at Alpine Lake. High speed internet, which was a must for our stay. If you want to relax and get away from it all, this is the place!

Perfect Lakefront Getaway

It makes us so happy to know you felt at home and loved spending time on the deck soaking in the scenery. We’d be delighted to welcome you back anytime!
Great stay. The cabin was exactly as described and the community amenities were incredibly. There's some very nice largemouth bass in the lake so being your fishing poles.

Thank you so much for your kind words and wonderful review! We’re so happy to hear that you enjoyed your time at the cabin and found it peaceful with beautiful views—it’s truly a special place to unwind and reconnect with nature. We’re grateful you chose to stay with us and hope it felt like a cozy home away from home.As lovely as the lake is in summer, we’d love to welcome you back in the fall or winter when the landscape transforms in magical ways. In autumn, the hiking trails come alive with vibrant reds and golds, and in winter, the area becomes a peaceful wonderland with snow-dusted trees and chances for snow tubing nearby. The quiet beauty of the lake in the colder months is truly something to experience.We look forward to hopefully hosting you again soon—each season brings its own charm here at the lake!.

From the owner: Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear the cabin did not fully meet your expectations. During your stay, we reached out to check in, but unfortunately, we did not receive any concerns at the time. The issues mentioned were first raised after checkout, so we did not have the opportunity to address them during the stay. We’ll still review the items mentioned with our cleaning team, as guest comfort is very important to us. We also want future guests to know that concerns regarding odors or basement noise have not been typical feedback from past guests, including those who stayed immediately afterward. We appreciate the feedback and will continue working to provide a great experience for our guests.
A perfect stay for a wedding weekend! As the family of the bride, this was our home base for holding ceremony & reception decorations beforehand. We also had plenty of room for prep work on the wedding flowers!Property really exceeded our expectations. It was perfect for our stay!
We wanted snow for Christmas and we got it. We loved the view and the cozy living room with fireplace. The deck is huge and roomy and must be wonderful in the summer!

Amazing fall getaway
We stayed at this cabin in October and absolutely loved it! The views from the deck were incredible — vibrant fall colors everywhere and the crisp mountain air made it feel magical. We could’ve spent all day just sitting outside watching the leaves change and listening to the acorns fall.The cabin was spotless, cozy, and perfectly set up with everything we needed. After hiking the nearby trails and enjoying the fresh air, it was amazing to come back, light the fireplace, and relax. You can tell the owners really care about keeping it clean and comfortable.If you’re looking for a peaceful fall getaway with beautiful scenery, cozy vibes, and great hikes close by, this place is perfect. We can’t wait to come back!
Here’s a sharper, more concise version you could post on Vrbo:---The view was beautiful and the deck was perfect, but overall the house felt understocked and too small to comfortably accommodate our group. The kitchen was missing basic items (more pots, mixing bowls, whisk, adequate potholders) and supplies like dish liquid and trash bags were limited. There weren’t enough towels, the dining table was too small for our party, and the living room didn’t have enough seating or lighting for everyone to gather. While it technically sleeps 8, the space is tight. The pizza oven was falling apart, and the swing was set too low. Compared to other Alpine Lake rentals we’ve stayed in, this home needs restocking and updates.

From the owner: “Thank you so much for staying with us and for sharing your feedback! We’re so glad you enjoyed your time at the cabin and made wonderful memories. We provide starter supplies to help guests settle in, and will be increasing those based on your suggestion. The home is a three-bedroom cabin with a pull-out couch added for extra comfort, and while it can sleep up to 8, we understand that for groups of 8 adults, the setup may feel a little tight. We’d love to welcome you back anytime—fall brings gorgeous hikes and colors, and winter is perfect for cozy nights by the fire. Hope to host you again soon!”
Thank you so much, Richard, for the 5-star review! We really appreciate the great ratings and are so glad you had a positive experience at Cabin by the Lake. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we hope to welcome you back again for another relaxing stay!
