Perfect Get Away House for a Big Group

Such a beautiful cabin feel with so much room for everyone. LOVED having the big long table for our large group to all be able to sit around and play some games a couple of the nights! Would definitely stay here again 😊

Perfect for multiple families

We had 3 families staying at the property. Perfect for adults and kids. Location was great, close to town but felt secluded and had amazing views. House was clean and comfortable.

This was a fantastic spot for our family vacation. The house easily accommodated 9 adults and the kitchen was perfect for cooking all our meals. The only downside was that the water heater wasn’t working and would run out of hot water daily. The maintenance person was good about getting up to fix it, but it was a bit of an annoyance.

Great experience, beautiful home.

We were a large ski group (16 total). Very clean and nice home. Great floor plan; not overly large kitchen and TV room. Rec room downstairs for our teens with great sleeping spaces. Fantastic response from property management - came and lit fireplace and let us check in early due to inclement weather.

Clean, comfortable, large enough for our family of 11 and still more room.

We loved the cabin and size of the cabin. It was well stocked with towels, dishes, pots and pans, gas grill and black stone which was great- did all our cooking outdoors Not a lot of other cabins near by, so this made it more private which was great-quiet and relaxing. The only negative was there was no outside yard or play area for the grandkids. We would definitely recommend this cabin to others and would use it again. One more thing there were two cabins that had the same house number, different cabin names though, and we all pulled up to the wrong cabin initially.
