Topton House | Cozy A-Frame Retreat w/Fireplace & Fire Pit — Quiet Mountain Escape

2 Bedroom House in Topton

Relax and unwind in this mountain oasis. Close to lakes, rivers, hiking and more but private enough to feel like you have the whole mountain to yourself.
This charming A-frame has a cozy, romantic feel inside. While it is best suited for a couple or small family, the cabin can sleep up to 6 people. The main bedroom has a queen sized bed. There is a spiral staircase off the open concept living area that leads to a sleeping loft with matching, built-in single beds and a private 1/2 bath. If you need additional sleeping space, the sofa folds down into a bed. There are seasonal views of the lake and surrounding mountains.

Summary: Host Jenny had great communication before, during, and after our stay. Cabin is well appointed and comfortable. It was just 2 of us, but it would be a good option for a small family with the additional loft sleeping area. It's fairly remote, but right above the lake if you're into water activities. Make sure you download/write down all important info (directions, phone numbers, door code) before you arrive, as there is no cell service. Wifi worked well on property once we got inside and connected to it.
