Awesome time
We checked in on Friday and checked out on Monday everything was clean and ready for us we swam in the pond, did a bunch of fishing (bass were biting before dark every night) we hiked to the little water fall on the property, and celebrated my daughters 13th birthday with family, had a big sea food boil enough to feed an army and made enough memories to last a life time! We were here in February and had to come back in the summer time there’s no other words to say other then we love it! I’m sure we will be back in the future. Thanks for everything Tracey - the Murray family

Family Ski Weekend -
This was our 3rd consecutive year staying at Skyfall. The property is amazing and accommodates a wide range of ages. My husband and I hold down the fort, babysitting the younger grandchildren while our kids and older grandkids ski. The proximity to Elk Mountain is great and allows us to serve as ski valets. The apres ski activities at Skyfall are the best and allow people to spread out - hot tub-video games in loft and game room in basement. LOve Skyfall

Better then the first time
After are one week family vacation last year everyone decided we had to return the following year. This vacation spot is a hidden gem! It is so peaceful and relaxing which is what vacation should be. We definitely will be returning in the near future. The game room is great for the less desirable weather but perfect to end your night if you’re not already outside enjoying the camp fire roasting marshmallows. So much to do and enjoy which everything is provided for you to do. Just to name a few there is Fishing, boating, playing cornhole and don’t forget soaking in the hot tub and so much more! You will not regret renting this property unless you pass the opportunity to stay there.

Everything was great! The lake was perfect for swimming and boating, all the activities in and outside the house were so fun, the hosts were communicative. Perfect getaway if you want to be in a pretty remote area and have lots to do right on your property. Very thorough instructions from the host are appreciated!

Family Fun at Skyfall
Skyfall was a wonderful location to reconnect with family. The lake and watercraft were enjoyed by all! The fantastic game room was especially enjoyed during down times. We enjoyed hiking the property but never did find the waterfall. Maybe next time! Wonderful memories were made at Skyfall!

Fantastic ski weekend at Skyfall
Our ski weekend at SkyFall was fantastic! The main house was beautifully decorated in log cabin style with open beams and an awesome center fireplace...well-stocked kitchen and large comfortable family room for gathering. We enjoyed the game room, lots of games to choose from! It was nice to have the separate carriage house, which was also very nicely decorated and very comfortable! The property is amazing!!! we enjoyed sitting out on the back deck, looking out over the pond and star-gazing...very peaceful! Tracy and Dusty provided detailed information about the house and the area which was very helpful, and they were very responsive with any questions we had. Will definitely come back for a future ski weekend, maybe even a summer vacation to enjoy the property and the pond!

Skyfall 2
We stayed at Skyfall exactly one year ago for our family ski weekend at Elk. This year when we finally got it together, everyone insisted on returning to this wonder property. Thankfully, our dates were still open. It did not disappoint. The coziness of the main house is tough to beat. Fireplace is amazing. Loft space for kids and tweens with the video games is a go to. The basement game room has something for everyone and ,along with the hot tub, satisfies all ages. The privacy of the 70 acres surrounded by nature is calming and revitalizing

Amazing family vacation
We are usually beach going people. I wanted a change this year and Skyfall sounded perfect. It did not disappoint. Everyone enjoyed the property and all the amenities. So much to do all at your fingertips. Fishing, swimming, boating, hiking to the waterfall, roasting marshmallows and playing games. Best vacation we had in years. The cat sky is the sweetest! We looked forward to her daily visit. Recommend sky fall to anyone especially big families of all ages. We range from 18 to 72 years old and everyone had a ball. Thank you and we hope to be back.

Absolutely perfect!!
Skyfall has been what we have been looking for; enough rooms, private, comfortable, and just all around perfect! Not only is there a hot tub and pond - all the amenities are provided right there. No need to travel with kitchen needs/appliances, fishing poles, KanJam, Cornhole, kayaks, paddle boards, a game room in the basement (and so much more!) - there was something available to do for all ages at all times! The grounds were kept, convenient, and comforting. The hike to the waterfall was so much fun! Before our last day everyone was asking when we were coming back - can't wait until next time! Such a great value for the convenience, comfort, and surrounding. We even got to see a Bald Eagle soar above the water of the pond! One more check off of the bucket list for many!
