The views were gorgeous and it was so quiet and peaceful. We took full advantage of the fireplace using some of the wood provided. The listing only showed a keurig, but there is also a coffee pot. The house was well appointed and we had everything we needed. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/bfa0878a-750c-4b41-b7b4-f9c00258d0d3-1762870284657.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Becky W. Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daisha H. 1 Dec 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy My family and I stayed at the cabin over Thanksgiving. The cabin was absolutely perfect. The home was nice, clean, and beautifully decorated. There was plenty of space throughout the home for the family. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and a nice double oven. I had no problems checking in or out or during my stay over 4 days. I highly recommend if you are traveling during winter months to be aware of road conditions the drive up the mountain could be difficult because of the steep hills and sharp turns. Otherwise I highly recommend this cabin. There is plenty of things to do nearby and lots to see. ##### Daisha H. Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2025 ---
