  • Review summary

    Generated from real Hipcamper reviews

    This campsite offers a cozy and peaceful retreat amidst a beautiful natural setting. Guests consistently praise the friendly and helpful hosts, as well as the abundant opportunities for outdoor activities like hiking and fishing. The cabin itself is noted for its comfort and the scenic views it provides. While most reviews are positive, one visitor pointed out that the cabin isn't as private as expected due to its location on a farm with frequent traffic.

    Great getaway! Everyone on site was friendly and helpful. Place was cozy and peaceful. Lots of hiking and fishing on site and near by. Definitely a little gem hiding in the mountains.

    We loved the whole cabin experience. View from the cabin was incredible, the wood stove made me feel like I was in a movie, and the walks through the snow lined paths and roads surrounded by beautiful forest was amazing. Enjoyed cross country skiing, the snowmobile adventure provided by Welder Outfitting, and can't wait to come back in the summer.

    Cabin isn't private as advertised. It's on a farm with lots of traffic (car and foot) out front. Be sure to get answers to important questions as theyll dodge questions until you drive all the way out there and suprise you with extra fees.

    Drew was not a good guest. Extra fee was expecting fee horse rides. Our cabin is the only cabin on 120 acres and there is almost no traffic at all on this private road. Drew also asked to get a refund and asked if he could work off cabin rental and not have to pay. We have a 97% approval so please see other reviews. Drew will not be coming back and I would not rent anything to him.
