The house is beautiful, the beds are comfortable and the kitchen is well appointed. The area is serene with stunning views. Avant, the management company did not clean the house prior to our arrival and there were maintenence issues. They were mostly no responsive unless I called. I had to call four times.

We loved the house itself. We were disappointed because when leaving the long, step driveway was not salted stranding us for an additional 3 plus hours.

Great location with a very dramatic view. The cabin is beautiful and ideal for family gatherings. The host was very responsive, and there were no issues - everything was as advertised.
