The house was amazingly clean and spacious. The more rural setting was exactly what we were looking for. Each morning we drank coffee on the front porch and watched the fog rise out of the valleys around us. Short drives to local restaurants and trailheads. There were LOTS of informative pamphlets and menus to local restaurants at the house. If you are looking for a true getaway, this is it. We will book again. ##### Jocelyn J.

The cabin was immaculate! By far the cleanest VRBO we've ever stayed at!! There was lots of room within the home, beds were very comfortable, nice big couch for everyone, Wifi works well, fully stocked kitchen, big yard with only one neighbor in site, quiet & peaceful surroundings, arrival/departure instructions were very simple, and we enjoyed the large porch around the house. It was a great place to get out of the hustle n bustle of everyday life for a few days! ##### Julie H.
