Always a Perfect Getaway

This cabin is always a perfect getaway for us. We both have December birthdays so we both enjoy the opportunity for few calm days in this nice, quiet, cozy cabin. Oh yeah, the host’s jams and jellies make excellent gifts for friends. All in all, two thumbs up.

Girls Trip

So much to say about the cabin !!!! It was hands down great for a girls trip! The hostess was so friendly and welcoming! If there was a problem with anything they had little notes that could help you out of the situation . Anything and everything was right there. Hopefully we get to come back next year.

Utterly relaxing, excellently maintained.

The cabin was utterly delightful. It was well stocked with everything we might need. It had many books, games, jigsaw puzzles. The screen porch and the swing were wonderful with a gorgeous view. I totally recommend this cabin for four people and very much look forward to going back again myself.

Perfect Getaway

We came here to celebrate a 50th wedding anniversary and this little cabin was ideal. Conveniently located close to town but still secluded and private, the setting was perfect for us. We could sit on the back porch overlooking the mountains and watch cows grazing in the valley below. The gas logs provided a cozy atmosphere in the early morning chill. I almost wish we had brought a couple of grandchildren with us to take advantage of the wonderful game room in the basement and the story book upstairs to this wonderful cabin!

Rabbit Creek Stay

It was a very nice place. Lots of room and different games available to play, a nice screened in porch. The hot water and heater in the bathroom were great. Just the heater part of the HVAC unit in the bedroom needs better instructions, could not get it to work. Also the door alarm is tricky to set.

Amazing and cozy find in the mountains

This little cabin was absolutely wonderful for my wife and I to stay at in the mountains. The view is beautiful and it is very cutely decorated inside. There were so many thoughtful touches that made it a step above other places we've stayed. Basement has a variety of games to help keep kids active (and off screens) like foosball, ping pong and others. The fireplace is delightful and actually throws a lot of heat. The only thing to watch out for is the driveway is easy to miss (little gravel road) and Google maps hasn't figured this out yet. Look for the reflector post on the road and once you know what to look for it's easy. Parking for more than one car might be a little tricky but doable. We definitely want to stay again for a quiet retreat in the mountains.

Best kept secret hideaway!

Jeannie made this place absolutely perfect! We loved everything about our stay. The house was clean, bed was comfy, the view was lovely, everything you need is there and each morning on the screened in porch was soul nourishing! We can’t wait to stay again! Also, don’t miss out on Jeannie’s homemade salves and all kinds of other goodies!
