    Considering the house is at 4400 feet elevation it’s fairly easy to get to. Very access to BRP. The downstairs bedroom and bath room are heated by electric portable heaters if your staying in the winter it may be cool downstairs

    The property was clean, well maintained, and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We really liked sitting out by the fire, and hanging out on the porch as the weather was beautiful. The view of the valley was amazing and you could see for hundreds of miles. Sunrise and sunset were breathtaking. Would definitely recommend this property for a weekend getaway, and close proximity to the Casino in Cherokee as well.

    Nice place to stay with some great views. Kitchen was solid, plenty of space within the house itself. Firepit was a nice to have. Dirt roads to get into the community were very manageable (we were there in the spring), but would recommend a vehicle with higher clearance.

    The cabin was a perfect for our family Christmas vacation. The mountan views were spectacular. The beds were comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked. We were there during the recent artic freeze, our truck registered -13, and the space heaters downstairs were able to keep it warm even with five solid days of below freezing temperatures. The road leading up to cabin is well maintained. And the directions Alissa provides are accurate. We did find that Wayze and Apple maps were correct as well. I would love to come back in spring or summer, I bet it's even more beautiful then.

    The views were spectacular! Beautiful new sliding glass windows made it easy to enjoy the views from the couch. You can also enjoy the views from the covered deck area. The home is centrally located but away from all the noise making it a peaceful place to rent. Easy check-in process. Well stocked kitchen for enjoying homecooked meals.
