The cabin was not quite as private as we hoped, but it is very cute and well-kept, and the surrounding forest is beautiful. The mountain roads are small and GPS directions are wonky, but Raine & Emberlie provided detailed instructions that we were able to follow, even when we arrived in the dark of night. Parking and the path to the cabin were also well documented.
If you're the kind of person who feels exposed if their window shades are open at night, it's worth noting that the cabin windows have no coverings, and look out to a few yurts and a pathway leading to a deck area. Similarly, the reservable private sauna/spa area is not very private, as it's surrounded by fairly sparse vegetation (no fence) and is right next to the entry path for multiple cabins.
The grounds have a bit of a DIY hippie feel, and some areas (such as what seems to have been a wedding space) have fallen to disrepair, presumably since the venue stopped hosting events. However, the cabin itself was in great shape and everything functioned well. It's cool to look up at the trees and stars through the upper skylight, though we discovered it gets very loud in the rain!
Overall, it was really nice to have a cozy getaway in the woods and enjoy our first trip since the pandemic. <3
