Upscale Cozy
Great space for family and friends. Spacious, modern cabin with the comforts of home. Aubrey really thought of every detail. You will not be disappointed! We had a blast playing pool and enjoyed our time relaxing on the wrap around deck watching the woodpeckers collecting acorns. The neighborhood is quiet and it’s located close to the lake and Julian. We arrived in a 26 ft Sprinter and had a little trouble with the turn around but the cabin was outstanding!!

Perfect get away!
The views, the birds and wildlife, the cute kitchen with cabin mugs and coffee machine and playing pool at night while soaking in the hot tub under the sky. This cabin location is amazing! Very clean, designed with a touch of modern but country and grand scale living with everything needed to make the perfect get away. We can’t wait to come back!

Stunning mountain cabin
My wife and I stayed at this cabin 4 nights and had a wonderful time. The cabin is even bigger than we expected and the furnishings are very elegant and cozy. When I had any questions, Aubrey responded right away. I also wanted to say how appreciative I was when Brad came to the cabin to help us get our car out of the snow. Thank you so much, we couldn't have done it without your help.
