Great spot, low price, but bare-bones
Nice classic A-frame in a good location- walk to the lifts and short trip to town. Relatively inexpensive when we stayed so that was also a plus. The place, however, is quite bare-bones. The interior smells of old wood lacquer giving it a sweet almost curry-like smell- not unpleasant just noticeable. The applicances are not necessarily old but they are the absolute cheapest models so are pretty crappy. Cabinets and drawers were a bit dirty. Rooms were fine however the heating in the upper right bedroom makes gurgling noises so was a bit jarring at night. I think there may also have been vermin in the wall but it couldve just been pipes. We switched to the other upstairs room the next night and it was quieter but the fan on the heater in there was also a little noisy. It was great to have a hot tub and it was always warm and fine for two people, would be crammed for more. It is also very old, none of the jets really work and the control panel labels are missing so it was a fun game to figure out how it worked. All said still a good deal for the price. The cleaning fee is absurd for how small the place is so be warned. I just wish the owners would invest a little more in this property. They're making hundreds if not thousands a week on it, they can afford a new hot tub and some better appliances.

Cozy cabin - incredible location
Great property in easy walking distance to Summit. Perfect for a family weekend. No washer/dryer but not necessary for a short stay. Oddly there were only four forks?? But we had a great time. Will definitely stay here again.

Not too bad...
I stayed here for my bf birthday and we had so much fun. The cabin was cozy and cute but it seemed like everything was a bit too old. I understand that's the style of the cabins but the bedsheets and the couch covers seemed super old! I honestly didn't feel comfortable covering myself under the blankets... Also, the rules and regulations sucked because after hiking and fishing we couln't use the jacuzzi after 9PM... My bf and I were very dissapointed of it. Overall, it was a nice cabin. We enjoyed our stay.

Not worth it.
I guess you get what you pay for..I'm not one to write a bad review but I have to worn you... I will not be staying in this place ever again. If you want to stay here in the summer time I advise you not to. There no type of ac they only have box fans, upstairs is super hot. Right when I pulled up you can see washed up graffiti on the side of the house. I have no clue why we pay for maid service if you have to clean everything before you leave. The place is super dusty, the tub was dirty, the tv and fridge had layers of dirt on them, there no dishwasher, no washer or dryer, you have to take the trash out, they have small old school TV. They have a smart TV downstairs buts it's like Maybe a 30 inch. They have a tiny grill outside and some white chairs. Not even a nice outdoors set up. You can't do anything with out them charging an extra fee. They have so many rule. They don't have that many towels, the hot tub sucks, we called someone to come fix it and that didn't work.The buttons are worn out you can't see what your doing. I emailed the company about all my complaints and I haven't heard anything back. I called them and they told me to email them. This place is cheap and dirty its maybe good for a night but not 4. They only have one dresser so you have to live out your bag the whole time.

The location was good and it was quiet. The home itself is old and outdated. We appreciated that there were plug in fans since the upstairs gets hot. Wished there was a dishwasher and instructions for the hot tub.
