Overall great! The cabin was rustic, charming and clean. Only complaint was a minor ladybug infestation, but we were grateful it was only ladybugs and not roaches. Property owner was very kind and communicative. However, the host could not be reached so we opted to call the owner to tell her we were on the way. Property is absolutely beautiful, but very difficult to find. We lost cell service and had to navigate narrow backroads at night to find it. The road up the mountain is also bumpy, rocky and treacherous. Directions provided in Vrbo were very helpful. Overall amazing stay. Beautiful scenery, authentic lodging and perfect mountain vibes.
Everyone in my group was a big fan of the cabin. There is a terrific porch with a beautiful mountain view, a cozy sitting area with a wood stove, a functional kitchen, and perfectly comfy bedrooms. Jess was a very welcoming host who told us all we needed to know about the property. There is another cabin just a few yards away from this one, but we didn't find that it killed the secluded mountaintop vibe in any way. Don't be afraid of the long, windy, gravel road up. It's well maintained and, at least in fair weather, any car should make it up easily.
Based on some reviews I was picturing very rustic/not very comfortable but I was pleasantly surprised! The Cabin, while rustic, was very comfortable. Beds/pillow were very comfy. Heating system was sufficient plus there was a wood burning stove (it was rather warm the weekend we were there). Internet service wasn't great but it was good enough to do check-ins with family, recipe lookups, mapping, etc.. Jess made the check in easy and took care of us when we needed wine glasses (even delivered some chocolate). The road up to the cabin was steep but my Ford Edge did perfectly fine, even after a rainy day. We hiked around the property and got some company from a very friendly ranch dog. Since this was a last minute trip I didn't look up what activities were available at the ranch. I'd love to go back to go horse back riding and my husband and to do some skeet shooting. Overall, I would highly recommend this cabin!
Great place to get away from it all, with plenty to do. Quaint, cozy, and clean. Staff is fantastic. Matt went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. We will definitely be back.
As advertised and great time.
We enjoyed everithing is a peace full placed
We had a great time on the ranch. Lots of outdoor adventures to get into and a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The hosts were extremely friendly and helpful. The equine center was beautiful too. We would definitely go back
All staff were very accommodating and the mountain top made a very secluded getaway. The horseback riding and trail leader were awesome!
The property is listed as rustic, and it is indeed rustic. It is an old cabin/shack that had nothing fancy, but we were aware of that going in. It is secluded and there is certainly no outside traffic, but the other cabin is VERY close by, so you don’t really have any privacy. That is not visible from the pics, but we did later see that called out in another review. Fortunately the other guests who were there when we were there were very friendly, but you don’t really get any sense of privacy. The hosts were very nice and very amenable/helpful; no complaints at all there. The secluded location is just what we were looking for as a home base to do some hiking on the weekend while we were there. It was great for that. We had also planned to work from the cabin, but unfortunately the WiFi in the cabin is just not strong enough to support two people working. So we ended up cutting our stay short by a couple of days so that we could get back to work. Would only recommend this cabin if you are planning to go totally off the grid while you are there.
The mountain top ranch is an excellent place to stay if you are seeking beautiful views and peace and quiet. The cabin is rustic enough to give you a country living feel, yet has enough modern amenities (Wi-Fi, TV) for the folks that need them. The staff are very friendly and helpful, and the location is superb. One word of advice for those looking to stay, do not drive a vehicle with low ground clearance and summer tires. The owner will provide you with ample warning about the driveway leading up to the cabins. We made it work with a vw passat on winter tires, however; I would suggest driving a truck/suv/crossover.
