About the host
Hosted by Steve Kimball
Easy going and fun loving couple! We’ve thoroughly enjoyed our adventures as guests on VRBO, and were excited for the opportunity to be Hosts as well!
Why they chose this property
We wanted to find a property that we would love to retire to one day.
We loved it at hello, after seeing hundreds and driving forever; this was charming, leveled (we don't feel like we will fall off the cliff). It is very private and it gave us an amazing sense of peace.
Sitting on porch rockers enjoying the birds, and the trees as well as the crisp mountain air was perfect, but as we sat in the evening and saw the majestic night sky without the city lights, we were sure we wanted others to enjoy it as well.

What makes this property unique
Upon entering our gated mountain community, you'll enjoy easy access to the cabin with level parking - and NO NEED for a 4x4!. Only 10 minutes from town, but feels like wilderness. The closest neighbor is downhill and barely visible through the trees. It looks like a mountain cabin, it feels like home.
