Fishing Trip

Entry is easy with a combo lock - no key to lose. cabin not only looked clean - it smelled clean! Owner arranged for fishing permits with the HOA so that we could fish on property. They even had little hotel style soaps/shampoos/conditioners. One of the nicest VRBO stays we’ve had.

Great stay

Stayed for a weekend to take my kids snow tubing for Christmas. Very close to the attraction and close enough drive to town for food, movies, other attractions. Loved the upstairs room for my 4 young children. Great bed arrangement. Heat in the house works too well haha. Very cozy, inviting, home thats just as described in listening. Awesome communication with host whenever we had any questions and even prior to the trip during the booking process. Would definitely stay again and make it a family tradition. Definitely true about 4 wheel drive in the winter. There was a light snow when we came up and the road was icy after. The main roads were salted and immediately cleared but the roads in the neighborhood are tight and have a few small hills and places where the sun doesnt melt the snow/ice so it can get slippery.

Loved the location. Convenient to everything! Very cozy. The upstairs needed a light bulb but with only the 3 of us we just used the two main floor bedrooms. The river was pretty and in walking distance, we took some beautiful pictures there.

This is our second stay at Granny's Cabin and again it was a peaceful get-away for our 20th anniversary. The location is quiet and peaceful and easy to access (outside of the fog and mist!). Everything was as advertised and listed and we had no trouble at all. Great place and we'll be back again.
