The property and the house were fantastic! Our group of dads and kids had a great weekend, hiking, tubing in the creek and swimming in the clean, frosty pond! Thanks to Michael and Josh for being such great hosts!

Absolutely beautiful

We gathered as a family for a winter birthday weekend and couldn’t have asked for a more magical spot - the home was cozy and had everything (and more) that we needed, the hosts were gracious and extremely accessible. Plenty of dry firewood for some great fires. We hiked the many snowy trails and burned off our s’more calories. It was quiet and lovely and the kids had a great time sledding.

Perfect secluded getaway!

Our stay at Michael and Josh's place was everything we wanted it to be and more. The check-in process was very easy, the property had everything we needed, and Josh and Michael were very responsive throughout our entire stay. Everyone in our group had a great time walking around the woods, relaxing next to the fire, and playing outside. We are definitely looking forward to staying here again and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a private, spacious, cozy, nature-filled getaway.

Great retreat

Our Christian men’s group really enjoyed our stay here. The grounds are beautiful, quiet, and very peaceful. It was a chance for us to play some relaxing activities, enjoy a nice cracking fire under the moon, and explore the property and the wildlife.

one of a kind property

I've stayed at this home several times with old friends as a sort of reunion for our group. The property is picturesque, peaceful, and private. You feel like you have a whole valley to yourself in a beautiful mountain setting. Hope to stay again soon.

Amazing!

This was exactly what we were looking for. The property was big and beautiful. Cant wait to come back in the summer and try out that spring fed pool. We had 15 adults and there was more than enough space for everyone to spread out and enjoy. I highly recommend this cabin for anyone looking for a secluded place to unwind. Cheers!

Great place for a big group

We stayed here for a family wedding in Berlin with 6 families from all over the country and kids from 10 and up. What a find! Such an interesting and beautiful property- perfect for us. So well stocked and open floor plan was great for a large group. Very clean and great communication with property owners/managers. Thank you for sharing this treasure with us!

This was the best location yet and we’ve been renting properties through VRBO for years. The cabin was spotless! There was nothing that you needed. It was all there for you. This was by far our best trip and I can not wait to go back! We LOVED IF!

Birthday Bash a success!

The location was fantastic—secluded and perfect for a peaceful weekend escape. I would rate it 4 stars overall. The hosts were responsive and helpful, and the house was clean and well-stocked with all the necessary kitchen supplies for easy cooking and cleaning. However, I couldn’t give it 5 stars because the photos were a bit misleading. The rooms were smaller than expected, and two of the bathrooms were located inside bedrooms, making them less accessible for all guests. Additionally, while the seclusion is great for privacy, guests should be aware that outdoor activities like hiking trails are still quite far from the property. If visiting in the winter, keep in mind that the roads within five minutes of the house are not plowed or salted, making driving conditions dangerous. It would be helpful to clarify these details in future descriptions. Otherwise, the house is beautiful and I will book there again in the summertime if another opportunity arises.

Mountain family reunion

My six siblings, their spouses, and I loved the property. The house had lots of room and lots of vantage points to enjoy the beautiful scenery, nearby pond, lake and rolling hills. Hiking was excellent: a short walk and we circled the lake or the more adventurous hikers took off for the woods trails. The kitchen was beautifully equipped with room for many chefs. All these features made for a great reunion!

Hope to return!

Our stay at 600 Acres was beyond enjoyable. We stayed for a weekend for a work retreat and were all very impressed with the space. The home was comfortable, clean, and was fully stocked with everything you needed for your stay (supplies for cooking for a large group, plentiful firewood, extra blankets, etc.). The land was beautiful, and our group thoroughly enjoyed exploring. Michael and Josh were amazing hosts and were extremely responsive before and during our stay to ensure we were fully accommodated. We hope to return!

Great group getaway

The house and property exceeded our expectations. The house was very unique with a lot of space and was very comfortable for everyone in our group. The kitchen was very well stocked with cooking and serving supplies. The property is so peaceful and had more than enough space for all of us to explore including floating in the pool, walking around the lake and having an awesome bonfire under all the stars. Definitely recommend to others!

Perfect place to get away.

We love staying here because of the privacy and nature. Many birds, bat's, deer, bullfrogs, fish. Lots of places to walk around. A nice big field to play on. Canoes. The layout inside is great for groups, large and open. The cool mountain air always keeps you cool at night no matter how warm it was during the day. A perfect getaway.
