Perfect place in a perfect location. Great home base for exploring and fishing the Sherman Pass area. Clean and exactly as described. Probably the best-equipped Airbnb kitchen I’ve ever used and we really appreciated the labeled cabinets. Birders will know how special it was to hear Mountain Quail and see Pinyon Jays from the deck. We had exactly the weekend we hoped for and can’t wait to come back. Thank you!!

I love this cabin! Situated in a mountain town, it offers stunning views of forests and mountains in every window. Outside enjoy horseshoe toss, darts, cornhole, a zip line, and a projector for movies when you're done- I wish I brought popcorn! The kitchen is fully stocked, so no worries about the little things like sauces, coffee, rice, pasta, and seasoning. Plenty of blankets and firewood kept us warm. The town has limited attractions, but hiking and nature are nearby and a general store in walking distance, making it a perfect retreat for outdoor lovers. Thanks, Anthony, for hosting us ❤️ we loved every second!

Wow, we had the most amazing stay here for the weekend! Kitchen was perfectly stocked with every pot, pan, coffee brewing device, and utensil you could ever need. Accurate to the photos, the place is quite spacious and great layout. The space was really clean and well stocked with fresh linens. Perfect space for making dinner with friends and a great view from the porch. Zip line was a surprising bonus!

What a gem! This cozy cabin had everything our family needed, and was a great base camp for a week of hiking and exploring. Very thoughtfully furnished and warm. 10 out of 10!

This cabin is BEAUTIFULLY OFF-GRID. If youre looking to be somewhere in the mountains where privacy and stunning views is your goal, then this is the place. Wish we couldve stayed the entire stay and got the full experience. Anthony was a great host, responsive and the cabin was very welcoming. Definitely will keep this in my notes for the next vacation.
