“Stayed here for one night because we are dropping off our son to summer camp nearby. Very close to beautiful lake. Nice and unique place. ”

“Seven of us stayed here for a couple of days before a backpacking trip. The house (more than a cabin) was roomy and very comfortable for all of us. The location right on the river was amazing, and we even pulled a couple of trout out of the pool right below the house. The house was clean and Jim was very helpful with questions, so the entire stay went without a hitch. Excellent!”

“We loved it but the restaurant was closed. The rest was perfect!!!! ”

“We had a great stay! The kitchen had everything we needed for easy meals, and the pool table was a fun touch that made our evenings even better. Definitely a spot we’d come back to!”

“Our family really enjoyed our stay. The check in and check out was a breeze. This is a lovely home close to all the outdoor things we love to do in the area. Kitchen is very well stocked and there was plenty of space for everyone. We have spent many years (both summers and winters) vacationing here and we would rent this house again in a heartbeat. ”

“The property truly does not have any Wi-Fi or cell service. That was not a dealbreaker for me, but for entertainment, you are limited to the DVD collection that the owner has which is very large. The loft was huge and it served as a nice place for my son to play his video games. There is a beautiful view of the lake. It was very close to the snow and very cozy. Everything was clean. What I liked the most about the owner is that the place is stocked with firewood, and there was even firestarter...

“We rent a property at various locations in California almost each year via VRBO for our family get away. The Great Escape property was beautiful, roomy which made it perfect for our family, so we really enjoyed our stay. I was a little nervous about the driveway, it was pretty steep, but we all made it to the property. The customer service with the property manager was great also. Thank you!”
