A very nice stay and a great location. The place was clean and had most everything we needed. Pay close attention to the listed amenities. We apparently didn’t and was a little surprised that there was no AC. But we survived. We would definitely stay here again but only in the cooler months.

We enjoyed our stay. The property was just as advertised. It was quiet and peaceful with a great view. We had contact with the owners who inquired if there was anything we needed. We had plenty of towels and kitchen essentials to accommodate our needs. We would recommend this cabin to all.

Wonderful Location
Great location, and the accommodations were relaxing. However, on sunny days when it reaches over 90 degrees, time spent in the cabin in the afternoon gets uncomfortable until the sun goes down. We did schedule our time outside of the cabin from around 4 until 7, usually out for dinner on those hot sunny days. When evening rolled around, the temp dropped, and with all of the fans moving, the cool evening air around in the cabin made for comfortable sleeping. Other than that, it was a great location, and would come back again.

Elk Haven - quiet escape
The property was clean and in good location off the beaten path. Several cooking items were left behind from past guests which was nice so we didn't have to go out and purchase them for our short stay. There were bathroom toiletries also, which we didn't use but it was nice to know they were there just in case. Also, the diary of previous guests was fun to read and learn about the area.

Great 4th of July stay, but HOT.
Our family (2 adults, 3 kids, 2 dogs) stayed at the cabin for 5 days during the 4th of July weekend. I knew from the listing that there wasn't air conditioning but I wasn't prepared for just how hot it would get from 3 pm to about 11 pm. We are from New Mexico where temps over 100 degrees are normal and I grew up in Michigan so I know what humidity feels like too and it was just too hot for us. We were in cabin #3 and this cabin is south-facing with a very large window near the peak of the A-frame roof. This window doesn't have any curtain or shades and is not reachable without a large ladder. This window was the entire reason the cabin gets so hot during the evening. The sun shines through it for a few hours and just bakes the inside. If there was the ability to cover the window through these hours (automatic shades etc.) the comfort level would increase significantly and the heat would decrease significantly. During our trip, I had to stay inside for a few hours each evening to work on my nursing school work, and even just sitting at the table, I would be sweating and was just overheated. Everything else was expected during our stay. The cabin could use a bit of updating and extra cleaning as there were pans with food and grease still stuck on it and the fans were caked with dust. However, the location is beautiful and the owners are very nice. If they could fix the issue of how hot it gets, we would come back!

Awesome
This was the perfect cabin for our week long stay and had everything we needed besides groceries. The hosts are super friendly and we enjoyed visiting with them. The area is quite and boasts a great view from the deck. We loved having a few fires in the rock fire pits they had for each cabin and enjoyed being able to grill out on the deck. My husband and kids enjoyed the challenge of climbing the hill behind the cabins as well. We will definitely be booking again in the future.
