    Other Things to Note:

    • Complimentary Wi-Fi is available throughout the home. Verizon service can be limited in the area, but Wi-Fi calling works well. T-Mobile and AT&T generally have reliable coverage.

The house was lovely and had everything we could want. Especially nice was the fire pit area in the backyard. We spent our evenings there with our family. Not often do we get the chance to have our young adult children watching a fire and talking instead of watching the screens on their phones! The location was excellent for 4 days of mountain activities in areas 1-2 hours away, It was a perfect base. The owner was exceptional in communications. She responded to my questions immediately and was very gracious and accommodating, I highly recommend this property.

Perfect wilderness house

My family and I stayed here for a week in August. Mandy was a wonderful host. She was very quick to answer any questions and even let us know the house was ready early. The house was just as described in the listing. Very clean and had everything you need. The back yard is very nice to sit and relax, play cards or yard games. We had 2 moose walk right through the yard one day. Would highly recommend.

We had a wonderful stay at Mandy and her families property. We had everything we needed to make homemade meals during our stay, they had every accommodation we could have asked for plus some, my toddler was so excited that there were fun toys to play with, we only wish there wasn’t a fire ban so we could have enjoyed the backyard fire ring but hopefully next time! Thanks for sharing your lovely home with us, Mandy. We appreciate you!
