We had an amazing stay at this cabin! It was exactly as pictured, but somehow even better in person. The cabin was clean, well-maintained, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.The views were absolutely breathtaking and easily one of the highlights of our trip. We spent hours enjoying the scenery from the deck and never got tired of it. The location was peaceful and relaxing while still being convenient to nearby attractions.A quick note for future guests: the road leading to the cabin might make your palms sweat a little if you’re not used to mountain driving. We live at sea level and have very little experience with steep mountain roads, so the drive definitely got our attention! That said, after the first trip up and down, we felt much more comfortable, and the stunning views at the top made it completely worth it. By the end of the weekend, we felt like honorary mountain drivers.Overall, this property exceeded our expectations in every way, and we would not hesitate to stay here again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a beautiful mountain getaway!

Wonderful stay at Nightingale Nest!Property is very secluded and quiet. Home is exceptionally well appointed- fully stocked kitchen, lots of games, and hot tub with great views.There are actually 4 bedrooms, not 3.It should be noted that the average sedan cannot make it to the house due to the steep gravel roads. An SUV, truck, or 4WD is required. The road could potentially be impassable in the winter or periods of heavy rain.

Kitchen was adequately equipped; plenty of dinnerware/silverware; pots/pans. Would have liked the refrigerator water/ice makers to be on. Grill worked great! Hot tub was great; worked perfectly. Bathrooms could use more soap/shampoo/conditioner (than the travel sizes provided). Beds were good if you like firm (half our party loved them; half thought too firm...perhaps add some mattress toppers). View was spectacular! Living space was great! All in all a great property!
