Summary: My wife and I had a great time in the mountains. The home was warm and hosts were very accommodation. Only issue to me was that there is no cell connections or wifi. Not a deal breaker for sure. I highly recommend this lovely home for your next get away!

Summary: This property is so good I want to keep it a secret, but the owners are such good hosts that I just have to do them the favor of reviewing it for them. We were looking for a way to get away from the city and have some peace and quiet for a change, and that's what we got. We also got beautiful views and help when we needed it. The chalet is beautiful, and waking up to those views was amazing. It was very peaceful and restful. We will be going back. Didn't get to spend much time on the property during the day because we were out and about so much, but I took a short walk on the logging roads and found some really interesting plants and mushrooms to photograph. We have a Tesla Model Y LR and I was able to plug in to the 120v outlet on the porch and get a day's worth of charge overnight each night, even though it's only L1. Martin tells me they're considering putting in a L2 charger, but I am not sure that's necessary. Martin, if you do, make sure it uses a NACS (North American Charging Standard) plug, please. It's a wonderful property, but it may not be for everyone. There was no Internet access and no phone service for us, but then, that's part of why we chose it. It forced me to stop working (business owner/workaholic here) and rest for a change. That may also change in the future, I don't know, but it was definitely a feature for us and not an issue. We had a wonderful time. I give this VRBO and the hosts 5 stars. Thank you again!

Summary: The pictures do not do it justice. This is a beautiful home with a million-dollar view. The home has everything you need. The host was welcoming and friendly. And so was his Great Pyrenees Honey Bear she loves belly rubs. There is NO internet, NO TV and NO cell service and it is a challenge to get there. But it is definitely worth it. Bring a book or some games and enjoy the peace and quiet. We will definitely go back.

Summary: This chalet is everything it says….secluded, serene! Martin and Melody are warm and friendly, the perfect hosts. Watching the critters was amusing especially the calves playing. Then nights watching the fireflies!! Loved it. The view in summer was beautiful I can but imagine it in the fall. I hope to be back maybe doing a mom/ daughter stay with my 2 daughters. Thank you so much Martin and Melody for sharing your piece of paradise! This is truly Gods Country!!
