"This was the perfect place to regroup after a busy day exploring Arrowhead! The cottage is cute and clean. Easy access to the cabin and a super quick drive into town. The only drawback was that our pickup truck was too large for the car-sized cutout parking spot, so our truck was always precariously dangling into the street. But the street is quiet, so there were no issues. Would definitely stay there again!"

The property owner was helpful and accommodating and provided us with weather and traffic links used by locals, which proved to be extremely helpful. We were able to safely make it up the mountain and did not have to cut our trip short. The cabin felt like a home and was very cozy. We had everything we needed to enjoy a relaxing getaway.
