Beautiful secluded cabin

Our small friend group rented the cabin for new years eve. It was such a nice, relaxing experience. The location is beautiful and it's so quiet. There was plenty of wildlife to admire. The birds love the feeder and a group of deer passed through one morning. The stars at night were amazing as well. I would love to return during the summer. The cabin was very nice, and we were very comfortable. It's clean, warm and inviting. Very homey. I highly recommend staying here.

Amazon cabin in an amazing location

Starview cabin was amazing!! It was equipped with all the luxuries of home. Comfortable beds and many extras, like board games and dvds. While there was no WiFi it was nice to disconnect a bit while still having enough service for messages and calls. I would 100% recommend staying here. Thank you Jina

Nothing short of amazing!

You’re reading this review because you’re trying to decide if you should book this cabin. I have three words for you. Book it now! Lol! I don’t even know where to start, everything was amazing. The cabin, the host, the lake, the 40 acres. There is a two person jet Jacuzzi tub from heaven in this adorable and modern cabin. I think I wandered the whole 40 acres, because it’s just so beautiful and there’s paths so you’re just walking, you’re not climbing or trying to get through the bushes. The walk to the lake wasn’t even noticeable because I enjoyed it so much, it’s right there by the cabin. You have the property and really the lake too, all to yourself. It truly is paradise and I really look forward to going back as soon as possible!

Amazing get away

This cabin is a gem!! Jina was great checking in on us to make sure all is well The cabin is so nice, fully stocked kitchen with mainly anything you need and the property is huge. Lots of animals to watch like birds, squirrels, chipmunks, bunnies and lizards. It was a great get away from the city. The only downfall for us were the beds, they are all very firm and hard. Overall an awesome stay and we will be back next year!!

We'll be back!

We had such a fun time on this remote, little piece of desert paradise. Jina was pleasant to work with, and always accessible. The property was very clean, and the trail for ATVs was perfect for beginning riders. We spent an afternoon on the reservoir, and appreciated the use of the kayaks. We hiked, hunted lizards, and did some star gazing. My granddaughter did not want to leave! Thank you for a much needed break from the world. 🧡

Splendid isolation

If you’re looking for peace and quiet with a clean and comfortable abode this is the place for you. A short drive or walk to the lake to paddle board, kayak or fish in the morning. A return to the house for lunch and naps for the littles, then a family style meal and campfire to finish the day. This place is a hidden gem.

Clean getaway

I was in Duchesne for work and stayed at this cabin for a week. I have had to travel a lot over the past years and try to use VRBO when available. This property is in the top three, if not #1 overall in cleanliness, communication, amenities, location and overall layout. The owners did a great job!

This property was better than we imagined! The pictures don't do it justice! The cabin and views were spectacular! Jina was an excellent host and made sure everything went well and we had what we needed. The cabin was exceptionally clean and well maintained. It was very comfortable and homey.

Geataway!!

We had such an awesome stay. The kids loved the freedom of exploring the property. Never a dull moment even though we felt far away from civilization on the property. The nearby reservoir was such a great swimming spot, even though the droughts this year had much lower water levels. The house was perfectly comfortable for our big group and there were such fun activities like roasting marshmallows, kayaking and the hummingbirds were a huge treat!! The owners were so responsive and helpful in suggesting things to do and finding anything we needed during the stay. All around fabulous time!!
