The BEST getaway location!!!
I can not say enough good about the entire process - from booking, to communication from the host, to the environment - all top rate!!!! The home is gorgeous and spacious - exactly as described and shown on the VRBO site. The host texted a few days ahead to communicate specific directions, and even met us to lead us to exact location. Overall, a perfect weekend!!

Quiet retreat
Perfect home if you want to get away from the bustle of a busy vacation season. It was so quiet and so peaceful. It is a bit of a drive if you're planning a lot of activities in town but it was worth it to us.

Hate to really detail how wonderful the stay was or we will not have availability in the future. Pure relaxation in a spacious setting and scenic area. Loved sitting on the porch having coffe in the morning.

Wonderful!
What a wonderful getaway. I decided to rent this property for a long weekend based on others' positive reviews, and it was exactly what we were looking for. The location, although off the beaten path, was a welcome change of pace from busier areas along I-70. It was also easy proximity to several state parks in the area. And Shelia was extremely welcoming and helpful! The place was beautiful and well stocked in terms of kitchen cooking utensils, towels, sheets, etc. (everything you would need). We felt really fortunate to get to stay in such a nice home and my two nieces loved exploring the property.

Such an amazing stay!
We loved this place so much! It is off the beaten path quite a ways - as it says, you are deep within a cattle ranch property - but that was just what we were looking for. Lots of peace and quiet with beautiful views - even saw a herd of elk with babies down by one of the ponds onsite. Sheila the hostess was a treat to work with and came to the end of the driveway late at night to help us navigate the property to where we were staying to make sure we got settled in well. We also got to see her and her team herd some cows, which my teens enjoyed. The home was even prettier in person and quite spacious, more so than I thought it appeared online. There was a grill onsite and several pans so we were able to cook a few meals there too. We will definitely stay again next time we’re in the area!

Best cabin on Earth
This is a beautiful cabin, located on a working ranch. The views are amazing, as are the hosts. We will definitely stay here again. The pictures do not do justice. This cabin is secluded and awesome. Loved seeing the Elk every morning from back porch as I enjoyed my coffee. Also, amazing sunsets.

Amazing views!
This was such a lovely place and great communication from the owner. The views are amazing. It’s a long and slow drive to the house, so be prepared with all you need. The owner met us at the main road to lead us to the house a few miles up. There’s no AC, which we didn’t realize since it wasn’t called out on the listing, but with the windows open overnight it was not bad. The main bedroom bed frame rocks and squeaks quite a bit so we used an extra mattress on the floor. It was doable but not ideal since it’s a lovely room. It was a great experience in a beautiful mountain home. They have filtered water, the wifi and cell service worked well, the kitchen has everything you need, and it’s very spacious. It sure could use some rocking chairs and a table/outdoor sofa on the back porch for that spectacular view of the sunset!! We had a lovely (huge) bull visitor in the driveway and saw a huge large group of elk. If you want a quiet getaway, this is a great option!

Quiet, peaceful and stars!
This cabin is bigger on the inside than it looks in the pictures. The property was very clean and had everything we needed. It was easy to communicate with Sheila. The property has unobstructed western views, so we saw a great sunset. We had a couple clear nights and the stars and Milky Way were incredible! It is quite a ways down a dirt road to get to the cabin, but once you’re there you will not want to leave.
