"A small piece of heaven. This place was advertised perfectly! Tina was a phenomenal host! Went there for my mom's celebration of life and it was a nice peice of tranquility. Quiet, beautiful views. Clear skies, if you are a stargazer! We brought our 2 1/2 year old pup and she loved it! There is no kindling or firewood for the bonfire pit so plan accordingly. Great place for 5 of us!!"

"Cozy Pines provided an excellent get-away experience for our family of 7 and our doodle Cooper. Amazing attention to detail to make our stay most comfortable—all sorts of amenities, and clean comfortable spaces. The long long table in the kitchen is great for family gathering and discussions. Gathering on the front balcony, and later around the fire pit, pleasant lighting around the hot tub—all very inviting. Yes! 5 STARS."
