Location is Great! House can use some improvement.
We really enjoyed the remote location. It was very remote, secluded and peaceful. However the house needs a bit of a personal touch. It needs to be made more cozy and inviting. It was not properly cleaned and has an old house smell that took us a while to get used too (actually I never got used to it, it was bothersome). The mattress for the two larger beds need to get replaced. We did NOT get good sleep. The mattress's definitely need replacement.

Family birthday
It was a very nice place! The views were great and surrounded by a Christmas Tree farm! The kitchen had all the amenities. The beds were comfortable and it was very clean. A lot of history and a nice mix of modern all in one. The owners were very accommodating. The TV would never connect to the internet, and cell phone set was spotty. But it was nice to disconnect and we played games and enjoyed our grandbaby!

Peaceful, beautiful, and relaxing mountain vacation!
We really enjoyed our stay here on Willie Walker Road! It was clean as a whistle, very comfortable, and inviting. We loved the house, property, views, and surrounding area. We ventured on many expeditions throughout the week, but always lingered at the house mornings and arrived back home most late afternoons to relish some down time. The house is nicely appointed and had everything we needed. Our 2 dogs also approved and loved all the romping space outside. We thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the front porch and hanging out with the beautiful and precious summer resident Ruby throated hummingbirds, who came to the feeder on the porch every few minutes. There is an adult male and an adult female, which means there are or will be baby hummingbirds zooming around soon as well. We have lots of hummingbirds at our house, so it was really nice to hang out with this charm of hummingbirds. A charm is what you call a group of hummingbirds. :) We even named them Willie and Winnie Walker! Anyhow, we highly recommend this property and we'll definitely return!

This place is excellent. Lori and Allan are excellent hosts and make sure you are comfortable and have everything you need. Everything, from the beds to the couches, we’re made to make you feel at home. We enjoyed our quiet, cozy stay and will absolutely be back. Can’t recommend highly enough to anyone seeking some quiet beauty to find rest in.

We had an excellent stay at your private and peaceful cottage. The property is beautiful and the view from the family cabin is something. We woke up to cows grazing almost under our bedroom window a few mornings :) The home was well appointed and very comfortable. We rarely left the property as there were plenty of places to walk and explore. Even walking the dirt road that runs in front of the property was quiet and nice.

Can't believe how nice it is!!
If I could give six stars, I would. Wonderful views, great hiking. I can't figure out why this place isn't rented all of the time. This is the first home I could see living in. Great place overall.

Another Wonderful Stay!
This was our third time to stay at this property. It gets better each time we come! The fall leaves were beautiful this year. We enjoyed our hikes and drives to town. Allan and Lori have been so nice to work with and are genuinely concerned about our comfort. Can’t wait until we have time to come again!

Paradise
We prayed for snow and boy did we get it! The views are so incredible, sipping your coffee in the morning while watching the horses graze is so peaceful. Every room has a beautiful view. The master bedroom had such a breathtaking view, we would wake up early or in the middle of the night and just look out. Between practice shooting, sledding down our own hill and star gazing this was a dream vacation getaway. The owner Alan was tremendously helpful and we all want to come back soon!

Lovely Getaway
This cabin is far removed from everything. We loved hiking around the property and enjoining some time away to play games and recharge. The owner could not have been more engaged and communicative. The whole experience was nothing short of lovely!
