"This place was perfect for our trip. Itโ€™s located close to everything the area has to offer. We didnโ€™t have more than a 45 minute drive to get to anything. The place is simple, in a good way. It has everything you need and nothing you donโ€™t. The best part is the back deck over the mountain creek. It was very relaxing to sit out there and listen to the water. We spent most of our time at the cabin enjoying that. The hot tub on the deck was a nice bonus as well. The area is absolutely beautiful...

We didn't think to ask in advance and didn't take one with us. But that's not a negative regarding our stay or the property. Great location as well."

"The room and the views were wonderful. The breakfast was good with a variety of dishes being served over our four day stay. The breakfast staff were very friendly. The walkways around the grounds need some attention as there are some broken light fixtures along the paths. Also, the bathroom in our room was very modern and everything worked fine, but we could have used a towel bar or two to hang our damp towels."
