Description

Traditional Cabin with Views, Roomy, Lots of Deck space, Great In town Location

Within city limits for easy access to all Helen has to offer, walking distance for shopping, dining, bars, tubing, water park, go-carts, horse rides, hiking, biking, kayaking, mountain roads, views etc. Walk to town and catch a cab back to drive up the hill with minimal fee if you like. At the same time, this cabin offers private and secluded at the end of the road location with plenty of parking space, bring your favorite toy on a trailer to enjoy mountain roads or clear lakes in the area if you like.

Second level has great traditional cabin feel with exposed beams in the ceiling, tongue and groove walls in dining area and wooden and stone tile floors along with big stone fireplace. These combined with rustic dining set, comfortable sofas, 42" HDTV and lots of windows letting the light in make this level great for get togethers. The deck outside has very nice and private Leisure Bay hot tub, big 7'-9" square which seats 8, has lots of jets and changing colors for those dark nights. Deck wraps the house and is 12' wide, has nice dining set and big Char-Grill Duo grill with one side propane gas and one side charcoal along with sideburner. There is also good set of utensils to cook great steak from local grocery store.

Terrace level has spacious game room with carpeted floors and special steel ceilings along two private bedrooms which have closets and queen size beds. The game room has pool table, nice sofas, one recliner and the other turns into queen size bed, and of course TV and DVD player.

The terrace level doors open outside and there is a simple firepit for roasting those marshmellows under stars.

The upper level is dedicated to master bedroom, bath and private balcony. The bedroom floor is covered with carpet and huge bathroom has tiles while walls are tongue in groove type wood panels. There is massive king size log bed, TV, closet with hangers for clothes and a nightstand. On balcony there are two log style rocking chairs to enjoy the view.

The Bavarian Pit Stop Cabin is suitable for families with kids, groups of friends, motorcycle and trailer friendly. The cabin has three stories with stairs, although the staircases are straight and extra wide, it still has limited handicap accessibility to the levels with bedrooms. Being on top of the mountain close to the city it has very good cell phone service.

This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of TripAdvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on all reviews.

Response from the owner Thank you for renting my cabin and taking the time to write a review for it. The location of the cabin is on top of the hill, very close to Helen, and sometimes the water pressure is lower upstairs, showers and all appliances have still been usable. I had the pressure checked by the city and a private plumber, but at the time of checking, it was within their range. We have curtains in downstairs bedrooms and upstairs master bedroom has some as seen in the photos. There are none in the middle floor living area. I am sorry if you didn;t find the ATV offerings in the area usable. There are several locations which offer that service. Unfortunately my cabin does not offer a direct ATV trail, and I haven't advertised so. There might have been a misunderstanding since my description says "Bring your toys to enjoy mountain roads". There are countless mountain roads in the area to have scenic drives with road legal cars or motorcycles. One can spend weeks driving curvy and enjoyable routes looping back to Helen nightly and still have routes to explore. Heikki
