The ski resort was just purchased by new owners this past summer and huge improvements are planned for their snow making systems as well as lodge.

Fall getaway
This property had everything we needed and is very comfortable. It is located in a very peaceful setting with views of trees, the golf course and some incredible sunrises on the back deck. We loved it. It was hard to leave. The owner responded very quickly to my questions. Thank you John!

AMAZING
This was a beautiful house and our family had an incredible vacation. John (owner) was super helpful and replied very quickly to all questions. The place is perfect for a relaxing and family-oriented stay in the woods. We loved the ping pong table and had family tournaments. The porch was perfect for morning coffee and reading! Loved playing outdoors and it is super safe for our kids! Thank you so much John for lending your place to us!

Great house!
We really enjoyed our stay! Beds were comfortable and there was plenty of room for our family. We stayed for 2 weeks while our kids were at a wrestling camp nearby and it was so nice to have a full kitchen, room for our dog, and a nice place to relax at the end of the day! We even fit in some golf on the Blue Knob course. John was a great communicator too! We would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful experience
We had the best time at this cabin. The place was beautiful and the atmosphere was peaceful and serene. It had more than enough room for all of us and was super easy to get to. The owner, John was quick to answer any questions I had and was available if we needed him but everything was perfect and that was not necessary. We would love to return here.

Nice home
Some window blinds in the main family room were missing and one set of curtains in the master bedroom as well. Enough heaters to keep the home warm and well equipped for a large family.
