  This was a nice, quiet, mountain getaway.

  Spotlessly clean and updated. Peaceful surroundings. Pet friendly. Responsive host. Not too far from hiking.

  Excessive decor felt cluttered and left limited space for our personal items.

  This was supposed to be the perfect weekend away, but we were left shaken due to actions by the host.

  This place is so cute and in such a great location.

  I had every intention of rating this place highly, but there were a lot of problems. To start, we had booked the stay with dogs but a few days before we got there, the host messaged me saying she didn’t know we had pets and that there was a pet fee. I assumed it was just a communication error and paid the pet fee over Venmo. I later discovered that the host, per booking.com policy, is not allowed to request payments off site. During this time, she also requested I send her a copy of my ID, again off of booking.com. When we got to the place, we had a weird feeling of being watched the entire time, even indoors. One of the nights, we were awoken in the middle of the night by the sound of multiple gunshots and we ended up having to call the police. Luckily, the police were very helpful and there was no one in danger, but it was still jarring. When we left, there was conflicting information about checkout, but we tried to follow all instructions as best we could and we thought that was the end of it. But as soon as we got home, we were bombarded by the host accusing us of causing property damage. She claimed we had cracked the toilet seat and started harassing us privately about having to pay for damages. She harassed us over text, over Venmo, and eventually over booking.com. We were in constant contact with booking.com and were repeatedly told that because she was messaging us privately, and not following guidelines by going through booking.com, that they’d were going to investigate her claims. This entire experience was supposed to be the perfect weekend away in the mountains, but instead it left us shaken and uncomfortable.

  The cabin was very comfortable, we felt right at home. Easy access to get around town and see the things we wanted to see. We will rebook this for another giveaway.

  We totally enjoyed ourselves everything was what we hoped and expected it would be

  65th birthday weekend

  Cute cabin and peaceful surroundings.

  Only issue was coming onto main road. Cannot see around the bend when pulling out so be careful. People drive fast on that road.
