Nice mountain views. Home needs attention to cleanliness and maintenance.
The home has nice views but, the cleaning company needs to do better. When we arrived, there were crumbs left on the kitchen counter and dining table. The wood flooring on the main level had dirt debris, the upstairs bathroom sink had toothpaste residue, a lot of hair was found in the tub, and half of the shower curtain liner was not hung up. The upstairs bedroom carpet had debris and the decorative pillow on the bed was dirty. The hot tub was unacceptable for use due to dirt and debris present. Some maintenance issues should be looked into as well. The hot water handle on the kitchen sink was not attached to the sink, the coffee pot power button does not work. It is automatically on once plugged in. The upstairs tub faucet leaks intermittently when turned off and the plumbing in the main level bathroom makes a loud noise intermittently after flushing the toilet. This is a very nice home, however, it needs attention to cleanliness and maintenance to prevent further issues. Not feeling comfortable in using the hot tub due to uncleanliness, was a huge disappointment as it was a requirement in choosing our booking.

In town for a wedding
We came in town for a wedding and wanted to stay in a large cabin so everyone in my immediate family could stay under one roof! We had an amazing time and the cabin fit all of us!

Perfect Stay
Beautiful home! One of the better VRBOs I have stayed in the area. Home was clean with everything needed for a work trip. The views were outstanding and the open deck was perfect for watching the sunset. The homes on the mountain are close so everyone was out on their decks enjoying the views. The road up the mountain is in need of repair (potholes and unevenness) but worth it at the top!

Amazing experience
We had the most beautiful time in this cabin, it was very quite and lovely, there was plenty of room for a large family to relax and for the kids to play. The cabin was well stocked with everything we needed. The view was amazing and breathtaking. Communication with the host was great and they responded to our questions in a very timely manner, we highly recommend this cabin and we will definitely go back .
