The 6 nights we spent in this cabin will never be forgotten, so much in fact that we plan on staying here again, which we have never done on a vacation.(we always try new spots). The setting is so wonderful with plenty of room in the cabin, a giant front yard and a creek/small warerfall walkable on the property. My daughters(3 and 6) played in the creek twice catching fish and crabbies. The girls wre obsessed with the super friendly dogs that were around all week and the 3 cows beside the cabin. The calf was 4 days old when we arrived so we got to see it grow up a lot in 6 days, running, bucking and trying to latch onto momma from all sorts of angles, hah. Fireflies and night were in the 100's, and didn't rain once so we got a light show every night. We didn't even use the loft, to stay all together in the huge spare living space added onto the cabin. The loft would be clutch for extra guests or parents tho. All the needed amenities were inside, the owners super polite and helpful from the moment we booked it. Boone is just minutes away, 3 awesome water Falls nearby(we hit Elk River and Laurel Creek(Aka Trashcan) Falls west and north of the cabin. Both you can swim in to cool off, and beautiful quick drive (20-40 min). Tubing at Wahoo was a great way to spent a day with a beer in hand floating down a little river near Todd(20 min northeast). Highly recommend Sky Valley Skip Tours for kids zip line course. Totally worth the $40, my almost 6 year old was obsessed! The firepit and wood around the property was nice at night too, did that twice.

The price on his cabin and itself can't be beat! No A/C is needed downstairs or when sleeping(60 every night). It may have had cable(saw a satellite) but we never turned the tv on... cell phone reception was perfect for calls, videos and Pandora all wknd(phone and IPad). No prob at all, so internet connection wasn't needed! This is the perfect mountain getaway for 2-8 people+). We also brought air mattresses, cause they are so dang comfy, but wife enjoyed the pullout couch every night so did the kids. That extra room has space!!!! Also.... they take care of the garbage for you, picking up each bag, that you just have to text to let them know....

Thee ONLY small gliche is the small hot water tank. When showering don't turn it on full bore or can run out quickly....

Thank you so much Ed/family and Oreo/Oscar(dogs were a delight and I am not a dog person, my girls and wife are tho)
