This place was awesome and very cozy for our family. Loved how this property has a fully enclosed fence for our dogs which is hard to find in this area. Owner is very helpful and kind to suggest local restaurants and activities for the kids. Everything was clean , lots of extra blankets and fireplace was great to put the cherry on top!

We had a good time in Twain Harte at Paradise Location. It was quiet and restful esp for my still working husband. A few "issues" no heat or fireplace, had not lite pilot and ran out of Propane for BBQ, but we made it work for us. Thanks for the short loan of the cabin. J&S

The cabin was perfect for our needs--a recently remodeled kitchen and open floorplan with a gas stove made for great communal spaces to cook and dine in. The bedrooms were definitely small, but it is a cabin after all! Everything in the house was in great condition and clean when we arrived, and communication with Brian could not have been easier. We will definitely be back to stay again--thank you for your hospitality Brian!

This cabin was perfect for me, my husband, my almost 2yr old, and our dog. We wanted to be close to the snow and surrounded by nature for the holidays; this place did not disappoint.
The town was super cute, and my daughter loved playing on the nearby playground. Our dog loved her walks and the freedom of running around in the backyard. The kitchen has been updated, and we had everything we needed to prepare a lovely Christmas dinner. The owner was kind enough to put out a Christmas tree and decorations, which added to our holiday trip experience. They have a bunch of toys my daughter loved playing with, and the house was very safe for her to roam around in.
We didn't end up going to the snow, but there seemed to be a lot of stuff to do nearby. The owner was super friendly and very informative. He sent us detailed instructions on how to get there and what to do during check-in and check-out. He even gave us a list of nearby attractions and restaurants to visit.
Overall, we had a lovely time and looking forward to staying at this property again in the future.

We had lots of plans in and around the area which has to be cancelled because of the storms - thankfully the cabin is fabulously kitted out for cozy indoors fun so our trip was still great. Location is super.
Brian could not have been more helpful.

We had a great time at Brian's cabin. He gave us excellent tips on the fastest route, where to eat and his instructions on how to make the most of our trip were great. The location is amazing. The cabin has everything you need for a stay. We were there 5 nights. Having a fenced in yard for our two tiny dogs was a game changer though we did keep an eye out for hawks. The check in and out process was simple. We enjoyed our stay.

We enjoy a relaxing stay at the cabin the two days there. Unfortunately the weather didn’t cooperate and we missed out swimming at the lake. We instead went out for long walks around the golf course and town.

Our family of five spent four nights here in Feb and had a great experience. Cabin is cosy and comfortable and the kitchen was stocked with everything we could possibly need. The bunk room has three singles, which worked well for our three young kids. Having a fenced backyard was great for our kids and pup. Owner was easy to communicate with and gave helpful instructions. The location is wonderful - walkable to a couple of restaurants and coffee shops and some nice hikes, and about 40 minutes to Dodge Ridge for skiing. For the price and location, this cabin is a great no-frills comfortable option.

This Cabin is in a great location. It is so cute and clean. We had a great time. Kitchen had all of the items we needed to cook meals and enjoy the space. I almost didn't want to write such a great review to assure this spot is available when we want to stay again ;). It really is a wonderful cabin and managed by a caring communicative owner.

We arrived to a warm and inviting cabin with upgraded features and all that you need to relax and enjoy your time in the mountains. Close enough to walk to town, yet quietly situated among other cabins. The kitchen had all you need to prep our meals and relax comfortably in front of the fire while playing a game or two. After sitting under the stars on the nice deck, with plenty of seating, it was nice to snooze the night away in the 'just right' beds. Our host was more than hospitable while providing all the tips needed to enjoy our stay, while relaxing in the cabin, or out and about. Thanks again, Bryan, for sharing your home with us!

Nice cabin with a good layout in beautiful Twain Heart. Short walk to town and all it's amenities. Nice place to relax and enjoy the mountain air.
5.0
This cabin was a great spot for us. The yard truly is completely fenced in (unusual for Twain Harte and important when traveling with pets). Very convenient location for very quick walks to down for mini-golf or coffee. No A/C but fans in every room and effective windows and curtains for keeping the house from getting oppressively hot during the day.

Cabin was very hot inside.
4.0
The property is nicely maintained inside and has great, well furnished outdoor areas (which unfortunately we were not able to make any use of). There are three issues that impacted us during our stay: 1. The parking area is rough and difficult to access, as there is no proper driveway, just gravel and dirt. It was hard for my electric car, low slung, to access. We got stuck a few times and it was rough on my car. 2. The bed pillows were hard and uncomfortable, as was the mattress of the master bed. 3. it was about 105 degrees Fht when were there, and the house was hot even at night with the windows open.

Brian was a great host with seamless communication via app/phone and the place was amazing. It is very close to Twaine Harte downtown which was very convenient. We stayed here with our dog and the fenced backyard was a great addition. We did a lot of day trips to hiking sites in Pinecrest, Kennedy Meadows, Beardsley Lake as well as other areas.
The cabin is well equipped and we were able to make food etc. Definitely a place we will rebook!

The cabin was perfect for my families needs, comfortable, cozy and it had everything we needed. The location was great, walking distance to the little town, and a quick drive to snow and historic Jamestown. The cherry in the top for our family was that dogs are allowed, so our dog could come too!
