Easiest rental process and best communication in all the rentals i have done.

We enjoyed our time at the Lazy Bear Cabin so much! Everything was clean, the kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed and the house was lovely. A little snow made the hot tub extra nice to enjoy with the surrounding trees covered in snow. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to spend the weekend reminiscing and reconnecting. Christa was very flexible in giving us options when it looked like a snow storm might change our plans. We appreciated that so much! I will definitely look for opportunities to stay at Lazy Bear Cabin again.

The house was amazing! We woke up to watch the sun rise over the mountains each morning and spent the evenings watching Christmas movies by the fire. Even had some deer walk through the backyard! Only qualm was that you have to go a little off-road to get to the cabin, and when you go to leave don't trust the GPS and turn right out of the driveway like I did. Always leave the way you came in! The road is narrow and impassible after a while and there is hardly enough room to turn around. (Honestly, there should be a "road closed" sign or some other marker put up to make sure nobody ends up driving over a cliff.)
