60th birthday retreat.
Nice little cabin in far upper canyon, went for the mid week and we were the only ones. Nice and quiet, except for the deer, elk, wild horses were on our porch. Early mornings and after sun down was loaded with turkeys gobblin, it was great!

It was okay
Not a bad place to stay but wouldn't go back to it. I feel for the amount of money they were charging the place could've been better, cleaner etc. The place gave me a unfinished look.. none of the doors completely closed. Had to use a chair to completely close the main bedroom. Front door wouldn't shut unless you locked the top latch. Check in process was odd, received all that info via email the day of only bc I was asking for it when we arrived. It would have been nice if it listed things they provided in kitchen. Had to buy my own cutting board and knife. Cleanliness wasn't the greatest, dirty silverware and glasses, dirty floors. Very odd feel all the way around. But it served its purpose.
