A quiet setting and gracious host
We needed an extended stay for our unique situation and Joe and Joshua were the best hosts! The house is comfy and well proportioned even for a family of five with pets. All the amenities were there for a longer stay, and the location is perfect for a short commute to CdA. The backyard is lovely and serene and there was plenty of parking for multiple vehicles and even our storage trailer and boat! We are so grateful to have found this place and the wonderful accommodating hosts!

Excellent Get Away
So fun! Not having internet was a bit of a set back. We had work we needed to do but weren’t able to as the internet did not work the entire time we were there. That was the only negative bit—otherwise the stay was amazing! Great yard! Amazing location near the amusement park!

Perfect little getaway
Comfortable and inviting home with an awesome back patio/yard to hang out and relax in. Great place to disconnect from technology and unwind. WiFi is not awesome, but if you have Starlink you can bring with you (as we did), you can set up and use high-speed internet for whatever you might need. Love this place - would definitely request to stay here again.

Highlt recommend for a large family/ group!
Needed a place to accommodate 11 of us to go to Silverwood theme park. We hit the jackpot staying here that was only 3 miles away. Due to our different ages, it gave us the flexibility to come and go as as needed instead of being "stuck" at the park. The place was large enough to give individuals the space needed but yet it provided all the necessities of home away from home. It wasn't fancy but it was very comfortable with all of the necessities that we needed. The owner, Joseph, was friendly and communitive. Highly recommed and we'd stay again!

Great cabin near Silverwood
We wish this was closer to home! It was a lovely spot, very simple, the kids all enjoyed their “sleep over” on air mattresses in the main room while the adults had the comfortable beds in the bedrooms. The kitchen had all that we needed. Very easy place for a large family to be. Only problem was the limited internet goes in and out, for which there was no fix.

Silverwood Gey Away!
Entering the house from back door I noticed the beautiful green lawn, which we played corn hole while grilling. The House was well supplied, and the Host Joe was very easy to communicate with. Me and my wife had a couple of grand kids and made this location a gem for Silverwood goers. This was a great stay.

We weren't able to make it on our allotted time as I woke up the morning of with a pinched nerve and extreme pain. They were so kind and offered for us to stay at a later date. Never heard of such kindness, way kinder than any other booking we had even for this trip. Thank you!

Super nice place
The pictures on the web site do not do this place justice. Backyard and interior were beautiful. Couldn't get WiFi to work, which really made it hard for communication with wedding party. But host tried his best. We would definitely recommend staying here, loved listening to the crickets and frogs at night.

Perfect Silverwood Vacation Rental
We had a great time on our trip to Silverwood, and it was in large part thanks to this great rental! It has all the amenities we could have wanted. It’s in a secluded, peaceful location, yet still very close to Silverwood. Overall, fantastic.

Pet Friendly - Not so much!
This place was advertised as a pet friendly place however please note that the yard is not fenced in. We had our dog tied up on a long leash in the back yard to see how he would do while we were inside eating and he, of course, barked (not used to being tied up plus a new a place, new sounds, etc.). A nosey neighbor lady called animal control on us BEFORE coming to knock on the door to check to see if we were there. Due to this, we had to take turns staying at the home with the dog for the entire stay while the rest of us enjoyed Silverwood. If the yard would have been fenced, our dog would not have barked as it's not used to being tied up.

It is much bigger house than we were expecting from pictures. Many spaces to sleep. Grate communications with a manager.

We enjoyed the peaceful setting of the facility, we had coffee on the patio in the morning. We enjoyed having family members in one facility, there was everything we could possibly need. The location was ideal, because we were ten minutes from Silverwood. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.
