So great!!

The property is beautiful, we spent most of our week on the back deck watching the deer. Bed is SOOO comfortable, everything put together with thought and intention. Hosts Tom and Amy were on top of everything, communication response, less than 30 min. We can’t wait to come back in the fall to see the foliage. Thanks so much!

Weekend getaway

Tom did it right with this rental. The quiet blew us away, exactly what we wanted. Excellent deck to hang out and enjoy nature and a hot tub to soak if you need to relax after hiking or a long day. Comfortable bed to rest and plenty of amenities to get you through your stay. If you enjoy wildlife and need some extra peace and quiet in your life, stay here. Great price and great host, thank you.

Hiking trip

Spent a long weekend away with daughters on a hiking trip to Garden of the Gods and Ferne Clyffe Park. The cabin was perfect for what we needed. A little bit muddy because of construction/rain. But the deck over looking the backyard was very relaxing!

A Lovely Get-a-Way in the Woods

Tom was a most gracious host! He provided great information on the area and activities and went out of his way to ensure all our needs were met. His property is a perfect weekend retreat, with little touches, that made it extra special. The people in the area were very welcoming, too! Check out the donation-based full buffet breakfast on Sat mornings from 8:30-10 AM at Eagle Point Lodge, just around the corner. Friendly folks, and a great way to start your day exploring all the state parks! Again, Tom was one of the best hosts we've encountered at VRBO!

Host very responsive

Nice place smaller than expected. Good for our short 2 night stay and located close to hiking and nature. Bathroom is small and kitchen doesn’t have much counter space. Would be important to me if we stayed longer. Hot tub is located on lower level right outside the other rental so if it’s occupied you won’t have privacy. We took our pet who managed the stairs but it would not be good for a senior pet or person with limited mobility.

Overall good

The cabin was nicely decorated with quality sheets and towels. Liked the use of antique doors and door knobs. The kitchen had a few extras like some basic spices in the cupboard and condiments in the fridge. Nice deck and pretty woods at the rear of the cabin. Spare dog bowls if you bring a furry friend but forget your bowls. Only drawback really was that the twin(?) size air mattress was not really big enough for a tallish adult (5'11"). We had booked over a year in advance to come for the total eclipse and the sleeping accommodations had changed in that time. The bed itself was great. So currently sleeps 3 maybe 4 if two of the four are kids.

Disliked: Listing accuracy

Cute but description is not accurate

The listing says there are two bedrooms, but there is only 1 and it is separated from the living room by a movable divider so it's essentially one big room. It also lists a double sofa bed in the bedroom and a double sofa bed in the living room, neither of which were there. There was a couch in the living room but it did not fold out to be a bed, which was disappointing since I was stuck with the blow up mattress. This was listed as full size but was the size of a single bed. I am 6'1'' and my feet hung off the end by about 6 inches. It also said that it had a headboard which it does not. The bathroom and kitchen are nice and as listed and the deck was very nice with a solo stove and soft sided hot tub big enough for 2 people. It was very restful spending time on the deck. This would be a great place for a couple who slept in the same bed and with up to two small kids. One of the pictures shows a sofa that has been replaced by a recliner. We enjoyed our stay except for the sleeping accommodations.
