What a serene and peaceful place! The highlight of our stay was definitely the dual fireplace, which kept us cozy and entertained during the rainy days. It created such a warm, intimate atmosphere and made the whole experience feel extra special. We would absolutely recommend this place for families looking for a peaceful getaway or for a romantic escape. A truly cozy retreat!

Host response: Olena, that dual fireplace really shines on a rainy mountain day 🔥 So glad Find the Joy made for such a cozy escape. Hope to have you back soon!

This is a beautiful home with lots of amenities. The lake and creeks in the neighborhood were outstanding, as well as the many trails. Our host stayed in contact and was very responsive when we had questions. The only suggestion I have for guests is that you either write down the gate and house entry codes before arriving, or take screen shots. We did not have a cell signal once we arrived at the gate, so we were unable to open our account or email to get the codes. Luckily a resident pulled up behind us and let us in. I had taken a screen shot of the house code, so we were able to easily get in. Once inside we were able to connect to WiFi and access to everything we needed.

Host response: Caren, so glad you enjoyed the lake, creeks, and trails around Find the Joy 🏔️ Really appreciate the tip about saving the entry codes ahead of time too — that's helpful advice for anyone headed up the mountain. Hope to see you back soon!
