Hot tub, kayaks, Slip access & Mountain View! 10/10 Excellent "What an incredible getaway! Whispering Pines was so much more than we expected. The home itself was built so thoughtfully and with so much imagination. Attention to detail in every nook and cranny made for the most magical place for our children. It really felt like something out of a storybook, especially the bunk room where the kids stayed. A mountain trip had been on our son's bucket list for some time and this exceded all of his expectations. The second we left he asked when we could return. The home is well maintained and cozy. It had just about anything we could think of to make ourselves feel at home and to host family meals. While there we enjoyed hiking, exploring the lake, sitting around the fire, and the kids loved playing outside. At night we enjoyed the fireplaces, lovely fountain, and rustic interior. There was plenty of room to gather together or separately. The host was incredibly welcoming, responsive, and truly excited to share this wonderful home with us. He was available to answer any questions we had to make our stay as comfortable as possible. We are already planning our next visit!
