  • "Winter Escape!" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Our winter stay at Black Fern cabin was absolutely magical! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by winter wonderland. The cabin was perfect—warm, cozy, and beautifully decorated with a rustic vibe that made it feel like a home away from home. We loved curling up by the fireplace after a day of skiing. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook meals, and the hot tub was a welcome treat after a day on the mountains. The views of the waking up to fresh snow each morning felt like something out of a storybook. The hosts were fantastic, providing a detailed guide for local activities and making sure we had everything we needed. We couldn't have asked for a better winter vacation and can’t wait to return next year! Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful, scenic, and adventurous mountain getaway!

  • Cozy Escape ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    My daughter and I stayed with a couple friends and their children on an incredibly snowy January weekend, it snowed over 18 inches during our stay. We had a great time, we did not even leave the cabin during our stay. The cabin is very spacious and has plenty of room for everyone to spread out and relax. The kitchen had everything needed to make our meals. We all went outside for a while to play in the snow and enjoyed the outdoor hot tub as well. The beds are very comfortable and have wonderfully soft sheets and blankets, they were very cozy. Kudos to whomever handles the snowplowing, the roads and driveway to the cabin were in better shape than the interstate! We look forward to visiting again
