Mountain Retreat, Spacious Cabin on 2.5 acres, firepit and trails

Escape to this stunning cabin nestled in the mountains of Garden Valley, surrounded by natural beauty and outdoor adventure. Perfect for families seeking a peaceful retreat, our spacious 2600 square foot property offers 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.

Take in the breathtaking views of the surrounding woods through the large windows and explore the private 2.5 acres of naturally wooded backyard, complete with a firepit, multiple trails, and sledding hills. In the winter, enjoy sledding down the hills with the provided sleds and tubes . Or in summer simply relax and take in the serenity of the surroundings. Enjoy a beautiful campfire on a starry night. 4 wheel drive is needed in the winter.

Lots of activities for kids! Foosball table, games, and a custom made full-size arcade! (with dozens of preloaded classic NES, SNES, and Sega games). We love board games and puzzles, and it comes equipped with lots of both.

The cabin comes with high-speed internet - great for movies and shows on the large flat screen TV. The primary bedroom has an office nook with 2 screens, keyboard and mouse in case you need to get some work in over your stay.

Our summer favorites:
* A campfire after sunset
* Reading a good book on the deck in the morning
* Ping pong and foosball tournaments
* Summer barbeque on the deck
* Looking for wild strawberries in the backyard forest
* Relaxing in the sunroom with the backyard view
* Stargazing in the backyard after sundown
* Floating the Middlefork river (you can find inner tubes in the garage)
* ATV or dirt bikes the nearby trails (you can rent ATVs in Crouch)

Our winter favorites:
* Sledding in the backyard forest (we have custom designed sledding hills!)
* Building snow caves
* Watching the snowfall from the sunroom
* Cozying up near the pellet stove and reading a good book
* Sledding at Terrace Lakes hill

The cabin is equipped with A/C and forced air for heat, as well as a pellet stove and fireplace for added comfort and warmth. Located close to Garden Valley's many attractions, including hiking, rafting, floating the river, golfing, hotspring pools, snowmobiling, ATVs, cross-country skiing and more, you'll never run out of things to do. Don't miss this opportunity for a truly unforgettable vacation experience.

Now a few house rules. There is absolutely no smoking and no pets allowed at the cabin. Outdoor quiet hours are between 10 PM and 7 AM - please keep our mountain quiet and peaceful during the night! This is not a party house.

We hope you love our cabin as much as we do!

Loved this cabin!
We rented this cabin for our week-long family quilt retreat (9 quilters and 3 spouses). We originally had another cabin reserved that fell through last minute, and we were so glad it did after staying here! This was the perfect place for us, and we enjoyed it inside and out! Everyone had plenty of room to spread out, quilt, and sleep comfortably. There were plenty of games and puzzles for entertainment, and it was lovely to just sit on the deck and enjoy the view. The hosts were quick to respond, helpful, and super easy to work with. They've put a lot of thought into making their cabin a welcoming place - they even had a space heater for the lower level bedroom which would have been quite chilly otherwise despite it being June. Overall, we loved our stay and hope to rent it again for next year's retreat!

We had a wonderful time and great accommodations! The host provided excellent communication regarding our stay including weather & snow updates. The sledding hill behind the house entertained the boys for hours.

Gorgeous View!
My family and I really loved staying at this cabin! Our kids are 12, 16 and 18 and they enjoyed all the fun things to do at the cabin, in Crouch and at the Terrace Lakes Resort. My husband and I especially enjoyed sitting around the pellet stove in the evenings. The view from the sunroom is spectacular. The cabin is very spacious so we all have plenty of room to spread out. The hosts were extremely responsive and very helpful even before we left for our trip.

It is definitely a mountain retreat
The house was great and there was plenty to do for the kids. The hosts were prompt getting back to us with our questions. It is a very private location. We enjoyed playing games by the pellet stove and enjoyed s’mores at the outside fire pit. We will definitely return.

Beautiful Cabin
This was a great place for our family/extended family get-away. We had people ages 14-84 and everyone had a great time! It rained alot of our stay but we had an amazing view and lots of activities inside. We weren't able to get the arcade games to work which was a little bit of a bummer for our teens, but there was ping pong, foosball, lots of board games, puzzles and excellent wi-fi. The rain let up one day so we got to explore the trail on the property as well as have a fire in the pit which both were a nice plus. Overall we had a wonderful stay, hosts were excellent, would definitely recommend.
