And the pictures in the listing are pretty darn good! The view is breathtaking! We couldn’t have enjoyed ourselves more. Everything we needed to recharge our batteries. Perfect place to get away from it all. Everything was as described, only better!

Peaceful Mountaintop Cabin
We loved this cabin on a secluded mountaintop. The view was beautiful. We saw lots of wildlife including bear, fox, deer and turkeys. The campfires at night were great. Lots of hiking trails nearby. Be sure to bring necessary supplies as there are few restaurants, fast food places, convenience stores, big box stores, etc. nearby. And follow directions to find cabin.

Cabin in the woods
We loved our time at the cabin! The house was clean and tidy when we arrived. The kitchen was stocked with all the cookware we needed. The views from the house are incredible. It was so nice to sit out on the deck during the day and enjoy the fire at night. This was the perfect lil getaway for a long weekend.
