This was the perfect mountain getaway!! The house was beautiful! The host was extremely responsive, kind, and helpful leading up to and during our stay. The house was great for a few couples heading to a wedding at sugar hollow retreat. Everything about the house was perfect and having a hot tub was an extra special touch. Highly recommend!!!

The house needs to be better equipped. It didn’t even have a cutting board! No amenities like soap, shampoo or conditioner. Usually when we have stayed at other VRBOs there are spices left over and dried goods from other guest. There was nothing in this house. It was more like a hunting cabin! No tvs in the rooms, the pantry door was just laying up against the wall, the fireplace was dirty, there was a knob missing on they stove so you couldn’t even use one of the burners and one on the cabinet doors kept coming off! We come every year to this area for our family ski trip and this house by far was the most disappointing one yet.

A Wonderful Experience
We were looking for a quiet, peaceful retreat in the woods—and it delivered beautifully. The cabin was clean, well-appointed, and surrounded by nature, just as described. Communication with the host was smooth and responsive throughout the booking and stay. I would absolutely recommend this property to others looking for a cozy, serene getaway.

Secluded Cabin in the woods
Overall we had a great time! Communication with the host prior to our trip was great. I had difficulty viewing messages and never received a return call regarding suggestions on parking multiple cars since the driveway is very steep. I was thankful a light was left on downstairs since I arrived late by myself and the solar lights outside had already turned off. There was one toilet that hadn’t been cleaned and the dishwasher was empty but had food residue and was a little smelly. It was a quick fix to clean those up before other guests arrived. The house was otherwise clean minus some cobwebs which happens overnight in a place that deep in the woods. It had all of the dishes and amenities we needed and was a cozy atmosphere! If you are looking to get away from everything this is your place!!

Carrie Murphy the owner was wonderful to work with. The place its self on the inside was perfect. Everything we would need or want. Very nice and clean. The outside itself needed some work done. The grounds outside definitely needs some love and attention. Poison IVY everywhere amd the yard area hadnt been trimmed in weeks. But overall a really good experience.

Great size,very clean exaclty as described!
There were 6 adults. We all literally had our own spaces! For example Downstairs had living area, sink and counter for coffee bathroom and 2 bedrooms! Same other floors except upstairs loft no living area but huge bedroom with shower/bathroom in loft! Big washer/dryer. Super clean all over! Host was amazing, always responded promptly and was very personable . Hottub was amazing ! Location was away from things,quite,remote. We loved it!

Bear Cabin Adventure
This cabin is set on top of a small hill with a beautiful overlook. There was plenty of space and things to do on property. The owners have done a great job with their bear decor and friendly correspondence. I would definitely recommend this home to others.
