Great stay at a cozy cabin minutes from the slopes!

This cabin was perfect for our family of five. It is in a beautiful, quiet setting just a short drive to Scuss Mountain. The cabin was very clean and modern, and was extremely well appointed. The owners/managers had the cabin stocked with everything we needed- kitchen, bath, beds, etc. We really appreciated the quality and environmental friendliness of the products. It was a top-notch stay, and we highly recommend!
