Amazing Hills Cabin

The cabin was very clean and the location was perfect to get to deadwood! Check in and check out were simple and easy. The views from the living room were gorgeous. It was the perfect cabin for a weekend getaway with friends and family for hiking, hot tubing, gambling, and fishing. We also brought our 2 dogs so they could come hike and enjoy the weekend without being boarded so it was absolutely perfect! Thank you for an amazing accommodation.

A great cabin for a family gathering

We really enjoyed our time at Gunstock Lodge. It was warm and inviting with great spaces for our family. The cabin was pet friendly, so my family could bring our dogs. We were cognizant of keeping the dogs on the first floor and off the furniture. The cabin was also well stocked with kitchen items, games, and some movie options. We enjoyed our time at this cabin and would stay here again!

Our Stay at Gunstock

Everything was exactly as pictured and described. Loved the property. It is well designed and decorated. The set up was great and we loved the outdoor space (deck, hot tub, neighborhood, etc). We also enjoyed the pool and clubhouse. The kids loved the games upstairs and the heated pool. We plan to be back!

End of summer UTV family fun

Great location, property just as described, perfect for our 15 year old son, .my husband and me. The only recommendation is that the bottom of the driveway be filled in. Also guests need to understand the parking limitations for multiple trailers and vehicles. Looking forward to returning next year!!!

Wonderful

The house was perfect. Only one issue was the driveway. It was all rock and holes big enough to fall into. It was not safe to drive motorcycles or trailers up and park. We had to park on the road which is also a huge incline.

Beautiful Property

This home is beautiful and nicely decorated. Everything was very clean and communications with the property owner were prompt. It's great to also have a private hot tub as sometimes we were too tired to go over to the clubhouse. We had snow almost every day and there is a little hill to get up the drive so I would recommend good snow tires or a vehicle that can make it up a slight incline during the winter. We had snow tires so it wasn't a problem. Highly recommend!

Nice home

Location was great. Nice home. Our major complaints are the beds. Full beds seem strange for grown adults that are normally in queen size or king. and none were that comfortable. I would also put drapes on the windows. Sun shines in morning very early and woke us up with the birds. Towel bar in main bathroom was broken and sink didn't drain. Just minor maintenance issues.

Family TIme

We thoroughly enjoyed out time at Gunstock! Beautiful setting - easy checkin - good response to our concerns. Beds were a bit small and poor mattresses. Lots of rain and some wash out in driveway - kept saying it would be filled but not until the morning we left. The lights and ceiling fans in main floor bedroom and loft were messed up. Very modern kitchen, great hot tub, beautiful scenery, and wrap around deck! Lots of memories - would stay again if some things were updated, such as beds!

Nice place if you don’t need to sleep

I should have trusted past reviews. TERRIBLE beds. Mattress sunk in the middle. My husband spent the first night on the couch. We did discover that it was better if we laid diagonal with our legs hanging over the edge of the bed. More disappointing that I completed there emailed survey with zero response almost 48 hours later. Have stayed at many VRBO properties and loved every experience. This was such a disappointment.

super clean, super comfortable

We had a group of 5 adults (2 couples and Grandma) and 5 kids between us. The only surprise was that it had three private bedrooms and 1 loft bedroom. But, I would stay here again, hands down! There was plenty of space; enough sleeping options.The beds were very comfortable. The home was super clean (and I am very picky). The kids enjoyed the pool in October. The adults and kids enjoyed the hot tub. This home had a "user guide" with all sorts of local and cabin related information that was helpful. This development would be neat for a family reunion or group of families vacationing together. Each family could stay in their own home, with the use of the community center/pool and walkability to each 'cabin' home. Our family suggests ordering pizza from the Pizza Lab, which delivers! Lewie's has fantastic burgers and great service.

Perfect holiday weekend

Loved the ability to rent a cabin and have all of our family together for Thanksgiving. The cabin offered plenty of space for all four families to relax and unwind. We enjoyed a lot of time in the hot tub and made many memories preparing meals together in the kitchen. One suggestion for the owner would be to assess and restock some of the kitchen supplies. We couldn’t find any measuring spoons and had moments when we wished there had been more cooking utensils, large mixing bowls, a muffin/cupcake tin and/or cookie sheets, more sauce pans and cutting boards, etc. I only share this as a piece of advice, as we were able to make due and it didn’t affect our overall experience. Another question we had was regarding the baby gate - we couldn’t get it to extend wide enough to block the stairs leading to the basement. We also wondered why we couldn’t use the ice melt, as the main stairs became an icy death trap and we had a family member slip and fall, but several signs in the cabin said we would incur a $50 fee if we used the ice melt...this was very odd. With the long driveway, we also spent hours shoveling in order to leave on Sunday, and we wondered if we should have waited for a plowing service or if it was our responsibility to shovel. At checkout, I did appreciate being able to text the cleaner when we were leaving and got a 2-hour extension due to the extreme weather conditions. At the clubhouse, the fitness room was a little sad. The middle treadmill worked, but the treadmill to the right is very unsafe as the belt is off centered. It’s a very uncomfortable room for 3 cardio machines... would also have loved to see some free weights or cable machines for guests to use. Again, overall it was great, we just had a few notes of feedback. Thank you!

Very nice property

We had a very nice stay. I would say it is way more populated then it suggests. You have neighbors all around you. The pool was very small and very dated. The outside patio furniture was very dirty and worn. You need to maintain the hot tub during your stay which was a bit stressful. As I have never owned one. The instructions were clear but would rather not have to deal with it. Out overall stay was good.

Beautiful home

The home is beautiful and in a great location! Lots of room for 8 of us! The wrap around deck is awesome! However, the home is very limited on TP, PT and any kitchen supplies you may need from cooking utensils, to pots and pans to mixing bowls. Be sure to bring spices, foil, plastic wrap or storage containers, zip lock bags. Some of this is mentioned in the home amenities and description, however.
