The cabin had the best views of the lake and mountain range. The deck was truly the best part of our stay.

It would have been nice to have a table with an umbrella on the deck to enjoy dinner outdoors.

We loved staying at this cabin at Vallecito! Excellent deck and views of the reservoir. Has an updated kitchen and bathroom and very comfortable. According to recent reviews, they were having issues with the AC, but they clearly fixed it and the AC was working so well that I even had to turn it down one night. VRC was super responsive and helpful. Had a few questions and things to sort out and they were on top of it within a few minutes! The only heads up I have for future guests is that although there are two separate bedrooms with enclosed walls, the ceiling is open between them so you can see lights and hear sounds from the other rooms but it was just the two of us in one room so non issue and it is cabin life… Thanks for a great stay! We would definitely stay again.

This is a lovely cabin in a great location, walking distance to lake with a beautiful view! Bedrooms and beds were comfortable and I had all the basics to cook with in the kitchen. All VRC staff that I interacted with reserving and asking questions to were phenomenal! I would highly recommend this cabin to others as long as you are ok with two things: 1. The wifi router is located in the cabin next door and as such, the signal was in and out/stronger and weaker at times. 2. The bedroom walls are open at the top to the living area and to each other. If you are with anyone who is going to sleep on a different schedule than you, noise will carry. That said, neither was a deal breaker for me and thank you for a lovely stay!
