Family ski trip
We had a great stay at this property. The home was large with plenty of room and space for our family of 5. We really enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit. Great location near town, restaurants and a park for our kids. 30 min from skiing and tubing. Overall a wonderful home. The hosts were very communicative and provided great recommendations.

Great Family Time at Lone Tree
This house accommodates my large family and young grandkids (ages 4-2), perfectly. The bonus room and large TV accommodates all of us for some fun and games! The location is an easy walk to town and to the lake, and the kitchen and the really large table are great! We love this home.

Yearly Twain Harte Family Vacation
Lone Star was a very nice cabin, we did have a full house. I think the outdoor area was out favorite place to hang out! Kids enjoyed the swings, and we made s’mores in the fire pit. Lots of seating for the whole family to enjoy our meals outside!😊. Another plus is the lake privileges!

Beautiful cabin for large groups!
We had such a good time at Lone Star Lodge! The cabin was very comfortable for our big group of 4 families. The upstairs media room was a perfect for all the kiddos to have a sleepover. The kitchen was well-stocked, table easily accommodated all of us, and location was very close to downtown! There was some snow the first day we got there and the side of the house had a little sled run for the kids, they had so much fun! Jackie was also very easy to communicate with throughout our stay. Highly recommend this place for all your gatherings.
