Cabin on a Hill
Lovely house which worked well for six adults and a dog. House is on a hillside so be prepared for many steps to reach the house from the road - fine for us though. Nice welcoming touches.

nice place to spend your vacation, better with a little more attention
The location is awesome. rooms are big enough for up to 7 ppl. The kitchen has everything you may need during your stay. These must be noted by the owner: when you rent the property for 6 ppl, the service needs to be provided for 6 ppl or extra. we have found only 5 sets of towels, also there were not enough soap or shampoo for 6ppl 4 days! we used course. also, there were no extra blankets to use. it is good to provide some extra ones, especially in winter. The property has light and electricity issues. Most of the bulbs were burned and not working. we couldn't take a shower during the night. one of the rooms didn't have any light! and the last thing, a vacation house needs to have a BBQ and fire pit.

Overall a great place and experience for the kids. Lots of stairs through, so be ready for a workout.

No Backyard, Dirty and too many stairs
There were cobwebs all over the inside and outside of the property. Big black ants in the kitchen and near the rear door. We found a dirty sock on a couch behind a pillow. The outside furniture is dirty and dusty- we had to clean it to use it. The cooking pans are lacking too. The backyard is steep and not fenced for dogs. Also, there are a lot of stairs to get to the house so carrying items into the cabin is very difficult- thank goodness we have teenagers. The bedroom at the top does not have blinds so the sun shines right through. We made the best of it and had a good time but we would not rent this cabin again.

Way up high in the mountains!
It’s a long, windy road uphill getting there, but the views are spectacular. Big deck is great - we spent a lot of time there. Wood stove in the main room heats things up in the chilly evenings and mornings. Homey and comfortable.

Perfect Escape
Lovely property. The location is isolated, especially relative to the other properties around it. The top deck is nestled among the pines and you can watch birds and squirrels during the day, or watch the bats collect bugs at night. The spacious property allowed for plenty of room to enjoy. Very clean, and the kitchen was well equipped. AC/heating worked well. We had a lovely stay and hope to be back.

Great cabin and location for a getaway!
The cabin was beautiful and well-kept. Some of the TVs and game consoles were inoperable but there were plenty of board games to keep the kids busy. We enjoyed our quiet getaway in this spacious cabin!

Wonderful cabin but maintained poorly
we loved the feeling that the cabin was up in the trees. There is 43 stairs from the top of the driveway to the fridge & kitchen on the second floor. Great kitchen except the Fluorescent lights didn't work, they flickered plus the wiring to them was exposed, not to code. Driveway is waaay steeper than the picture shows. Burned rubber getting up it. The window & door screens were either torn or ready to fall off. This made it difficult to cool the cabin down as the afternoon sun heats the 2nd & 3rd floors. Cant ventilate cooler air through torn screen or mosquitos get in. 1st floor tub drained so slow stood in 4 inches of water during shower. Tried to call number in household info folder. Left message but no one called back. Great place, I actually loved it, even with the above problems. Make sure those problems are repaired before you rent it. Oh, and i found a short trail up the road past the dead end. Fun to explore.
