So much better than a boring hotel! I took my mother and 2 children the week before Christmas. They thought this was the coolest place! I thought it was pretty perfect too. The kitchen has some items already, left behind and not wasted/thrown away by others (coffee filters, seasonings, butter, ketchup) that came in very handy. The road up was a little scary at first but my vehicle has no problem with the incline. Simms was super nice and even provided firewood for the wood stove. I have already recommended staying here to our friends and family in the future. The beds were comfortable. Internet connection was fine. Five stars!
