Luxury Vacation Retreat Cabin (1901)

Secluded with plenty of options for heating and cooling in each room for all weather. It was below freezing while we were there and the place heated up quickly after checkin. We had the option to heat the indoor pool as well which was a huge plus. We had kids of all ages and a pet and everyone enjoyed the trip. Thanks Sam.

The log cabin was great for the number of people in our group. The biggest complaint was the lack of functioning air condiitioning in the bedrooms. The pool was heated and was throughly enjoyed. The game room was great for the teenagers. The log cabinn is a bit data and could have been cleaner. The outdoor pavillion was used for all of our meals

16 family members stayed and enjoyed everything the house had to offer. We didn’t use the pool as the temperature dropped to 36 degrees and didn’t pay extra to get pool heated but we had a great time. Entertainment for everyone at all times. From game room to outdoor swing, bonfire pit, huge tv to watch the game or a movie, sleeping quarters, extra tables, chairs and heat lamps, the house had everything we needed to make our family stay a success. Highly recommend this property.

Me and my siblings and our families got together for a weekend up here. We grew up here and appreciated the location and size of the cabin and the rooms. He allowed us to check in early and communicated with me throughout the weekend as issues came up. The game room is great, but most of the games seemed to be missing one or more essential pieces (not enough pool balls for a complete game of pool). One of the ac units in one of the rooms didn’t work and it was a hot weekend. The pool was great and the outside areas were enjoyed by everyone. Even the large tv was greatly enjoyed to watch Copa America on.unfortunately not all of the showers had hot water and the basketball court is not how it is shown in the pictures. All in all we had a great weekend. This place just needs a little maintenance.

Great location, awesome views, privacy you have your own mountain. Lots to do around property, game room was a hit. Pool was awesome, hot tub with a view, good hiking, biking trails good communication with host. Sam was awesome fast responses. Would stay again in the future.

We had an excellent time at the Cabin. We enjoyed the large heated pool, jacuzzi, and playroom. It’s a great place for large groups! Sam was very easy to reach. Overall great time !

My first impression was great. However, as our stay continued things got worse. It started with minor uncleanliness with dead bug in a fridge, no hot water in one of the showers, a green jacuzzi from day one, only one working smoke detector in the whole house, none upstairs, and apparent gas leak(s) to name a few. Then more serious issues came up with the electrical. The electricity in one of the upstairs rooms was completely not working all except the AC. My family members had to use camping lanterns and their phone flash lights to see at night. An electrical panel with exposed 240-volt wires near the children playground was the most concerning, poorly secured with a brick. GFIs In upstairs bathroom would not reset and was shorting out, Outlet in pool house was hanging out of box and exposed 120 volt wires to children. The BBQ didn’t work properly making it impossible to cook a proper meal for our family. The pool was seemingly dirty when we arrived, and we paid extra to heat the pool which didn’t get very warm for the 3 days we paid for. Compounding our frustrations, the owner was out of the country which made communication difficult for the more pressing safety issues. My family tried to make the best of stay, but it really ruined our experience having to deal with so many safety issues/ concerns not being addressed.

This house was awesome!! We had a team retreat and it was perfect! The host, Sam, is super kind, flexible and easy-going. The pool and hot tub were functioning and clean. The games in the garage were all functioning. There were enough beds for everyone, and they were all so comfy. 10/10 stay.

Overall the entire experience was excellent.The property is EXCELLENT, especially if you have a large family group that would include children (we did not, but we act like kids). The multiple "houses" where people can stay, the indoor pool, and the game room really make this place stand out. Check in instructions and directions were super clear and easy to follow. Sam is very responsive. Overall could not ask for better.

This house is very large, with a lot of places to sleep- most are shared. There is a nice pool, the hot tub and sauna work great. The location is wonderful- quiet, away from the highway, and very dark at night. It's a great combination of close to LA and still very remote. The lack of neighbors is really nice as well. There are a couple working arcade games, ping pong, foosball, pool, and air hockey. The fire pit is great. The only drawbacks are a very small (but well stocked) kitchen, and the carpets and bathrooms are on the older side. There is a large grill which made up for the small kitchen. Aside from all that, this is a great property, and it was the perfect place for us to hold our event. Sam and the cleaning staff were friendly and did whatever it took to make sure we had what we needed.

Amazing , everything was fantastic, pool was awesome all to our selves , home had all the essential things needed to make stay comfortable, AC work beautiful, only thing missing was tv in rooms to relax little more but love the views and loved the home.

We were excited by the listing for our weekend friends getaway but our experience at this house was very disappointing. The place was not clean: the showers were dirty full of scum and rust, and the jaccuzi had dirt and scum so we didn't feel comfortable going in it. The indoor pool was not heated- it turns out there was a fine print on the listing that we had to request it be heated well in advance for an additional fee, which would have been fine if it was better communicated to us. We discovered that a mouse found its way into the indoor pool- gross and was floating in the pool so that was a non use. The wifi also was not working when we arrived we could not connect our devices. I reached out to the manager and he was not helpful saying that it shows it was active on his end- which doesn't help if we can't connect. Finally the next day he sent an IT person to fix it but dealing with an IT person is not how I wanted to spend any portion of my trip. It took him an hour to do a temporary fix and he even commented that it was a poor connection. Would not recommend, especially for the price point.

We are giving a five-star review because, despite its flaws, it was perfect for us. We consider this a property with an identity crisis: Is it a luxury getaway, or a summer camp? Right now, it feels like it is trying to be both and not really doing either. With a $40k investment into the property, the owner could charge double or triple the current nightly rate and it would still be a bargain. Let's start with the bad, because there isn't much. The appliances other than the big ones - fridge, oven, laundry - are dated. Some of them feel like they came from a local antique shop. And the kitchen itself is small and gets crowded. I get the impression it isn't booked every weekend because, even though we could tell it had been cleaned before we arrived (vacuum marks still visible), everything was dusty. Not dirty, just had the appearance of not used. A balcony door didn't lock. Not a really a problem for how remote it is, but if you are keen on security, it can be a turn off. The electrical in the bathroom of the main house won't activate because the GFI circuit trips as soon as you reset it. Finally, a door punches a hole in the wall as soon as you open it because there isn't a stopper on it. That's a $2 fix, so I'm not sure why that isn't addressed. If you are expecting a luxury destination, the above list may disappoint. If you are looking for a fun time for a large, extended family, this place is perfect. The main house has a small kitchen and dining area, and spacious bar/seating area, and an enormous living room with plenty of seating, a fireplace, and a TV (the TV did not work when we were there). There is also a bathroom downstairs. The upstairs has three huge bedrooms, two with balconies, and two bathrooms. The biggest bedroom could easily be configured with sleeping for twenty, but has a single, king size bed in it. A second building houses an indoor pool and sauna, with an attached bathroom, a bedroom with a king bed, and a loft with multiple beds. Perfect for a family with small kids. The final building has a bathroom and a large bedroom with four large bunk beds that can sleep three people each. Attached to that is a garage filled with all kinds of fun activities like billiards, air hockey, foosball and arcade games. The property is even better. Huge picnic area with a propane grill. Small playground. Basketball court. Lots of space. I highly recommend staying before they commit to lux. High value now.

Property was very clean and well kept.

The property was great the views where amazing. Everything was clean and the host was attentive when messaging. The only minor issue was the room upstairs in the pool house was too hot to sleep in so no one stayed in there. Also the room with a king bed that was not the master bedroom in the main house had no AC making it very uncomfortable.

Stayed here a couple weeks ago, and it was a fantastic place to stay with such a large group! We had 14 people with plenty of beds leftover to accommodate even more if needed. Lots of space, and a great place to relax. Will definitely be staying here again!

Perfect for our 20 person retreat. Host was excellent and check in and out was seem-less and easy. Pictures did not do this property justice. Rooms were bigger than expected and it had a little bit of something for everyone. Very pleased with the facilities and the service. I have no hesitation for booking the property again next year.

This is our second stay here and it’s been great. Sam has gone above and beyond to ensure that our trip was a success and we are so thankful. The property is wonderful and spacious. The photos do well showing the different areas that the property offers from the game room, the pool, and all the sleeping areas. Great for a getaway and couldn’t recommend it more. Look no further for your next trip!

Overall, this was a 5-star PERFECT experience for our 50th year family reunion, comprising of all 40 people across 3 generation of ages spanning from 4 years old to 85 years old. The property offered amenities and facilities for every age group. There were sufficient rooms and beds to accomodate all members, the meeting areas inside and outsid were very useable. Having the exclusive mountain behind property for hiking as amazing as well. Last but not least, Mr. Sam, the property owner/manager was incredibly supportive before the check-in date to answer questions, arrange for a site visit, and provided additional information. He even was kind enough to accept delivery packages for us before we arrived and had it sitting in the garage waiting for us when we arrived. He made the entire preparation process smooth and seamless. Overall, everyone LOVED the property and we would very much love to host another event there in the future!!!

We rented Sam's home to host our family and close friends for my daughter's wedding reception. Everyone had plenty of space and slept comfortably. We used the patio for the wedding reception, and it was magical. Sam was flexible and very communicative, which is so important when hosting a wedding.

We had an excellent time at the Cabin. We enjoyed the large heated pool, jacuzzi, and playroom. It’s a great place for large groups! Sam was very easy to reach. Overall great time !

We had a wonderful stay. There were no neighbors to worry about, the scenery was beautiful and we had so much fun. Thank you.

The area is so beautiful and felt like a real getaway for my family amd friends. Host was always so nice and quick to repond if we ever needed something. House honestly had just about everything we needed. If given the opportunity everyone that went would love to stay here again. They've already ask me for the booking link for future gatherings. Really loved the space.

Great location, awesome views, privacy you have your own mountain. Lots to do around property, game room was a hit. Pool was awesome, hot tub with a view, good hiking, biking trails good communication with host. Sam was awesome fast responses. Would stay again in the future.

Beautiful property and plenty to do for a fun weekend. Host was very communicative and pleasant to work with. Highly recommend.

Lots of space and parking for guests

Overall this was an absolute perfect house for our family reunion. There was 35 people that stayed ant the house and we all slept comfortably. There was plenty of things to do around the property for the kids and beautiful sceneryall around us. Definitely coming back to the cabin!
