4/5 In town for the Mammoth March. Staying at this property was a good experience. Very clean. Check out “to-do” list is reasonable. Kitchen had most of what we needed to cook our meals - very small cutting board, only one dish towel. Quiet area, neighboring properties were occupied. We enjoyed our time here. Would recommend.

4/5 We enjoyed our stay for the most part! Definitely wouldn’t rebook just the cabin in its own - it sits behind the main house and so your view from the front porch is directly into the main house, and there were no blinds on our front door. We also struggled with some of the bathroom features - the shower is not intuitive to get started (but once it’s on, it’s GLORIOUS with those 2 rain shower heads!!), the shower door can only be opened if the main door is closed and there’s very little room to operate; the switch to operate the exhaust fan isn’t near the other switches so we had to shower with the main door open the first night to avoid steam build up; just little things like that which were mostly trivial and a non-issue once we figured it out. Otherwise, the hosts are wonderful and quick to respond! The beds are comfy, and it’s a good place to stay if you’re just in need of a place to come home and rest between days spent out and about.

5/5 Adorable place to stay. Very clean and nicely furnished.
lovely stay
5/5 We had a wonderful stay at the Ruebling cabin. It was exactly as the pictures showed. I have a lot of allergies, so staying in rentals can be tricky, but I had no troubles. It was clean and comfortable. They have done a really nice job of making upgrades (lots of hot water and easy air conditioning control) while maintaining a cabin feel. If we are back in the area, we will definitely try to stay here.
Manager's Response:
