On the pricier side of most cabins in the area, but worth every penny. Owner was VERY responsive when we had one small issue, and got it corrected very expeditiously. Can't say enough good things. We had a few families all staying there together and some friends over to eat with us while we were there, and the house accommodated a gathering of about 25 people VERY comfortably while we cooked and ate. Wonderful experience, will stay here again. ##### Eric W.

This is a beautiful home with lots of space (especially in the kitchen, which is a priority for us). The house is well maintained, it is clean and everything works as it should. The host was very available and responded to my questions or needs very quickly. Every VRBO stay should be like this. I recommend this property and host and we plan to stay here again. ##### Jeremy M.
