Overall our stay at Mountain Bliss was good. This review is going to include some bad things we encountered, but the management team was on top of everything and did an excellent job handling a few setbacks.
First, the positives. They have new appliances so cooking our meals there was easy. The oven/stovetop was great and the newer refrigerator meant we had plenty of room for all of our food.
Also, the furniture in the den was super comfortable. Sometimes when you rent older cabins and their furniture is just as old and uncomfortable but these couches were deep and comfy.
I can only imagine what this place would be like in the winter with a fire going.
Also, if you are worried about not having A/C, my family and I stayed here when it was averaging about 97 degrees outside and the cabin is very well insulated.
At night, we opened all the windows and used the fans to circulate the air upstairs and everything cooled way down.
So much so, that the kiddos woke up the first night because they were cold.
In the morning we closed all of that cold air in the cabin and went hiking all day. When we came back in the late afternoon, around 3pm the cabin was still cool (76 degrees) so we were not bothered by the lack of A/C.
I would just make sure nightly temperatures are cool enough to drop the temperature inside.
The biggest complaint I would have about the cabin is that the main living area is dark. There is very little light so you have to have the lights on all of the time.
This wouldn't have been bad except for the fact the majority of the light bulbs in this place had the blue daylight balanced light bulbs, instead of the orange gentler indoor balanced bulbs so by the end of the day your eyes do start to hurt from the rough lighting.
I would recommend to the owner to switch out those blue bulbs for the orange lights and the place would be a lot more comfortable on the eyes.
Now for the setbacks that the management team handling like total professionals.
When we arrived the bathrooms were dirty. Like stains in the toilet dirty. We texted management and they apologized and sent out a cleaning crew to get everything cleaned.
The next morning we found out the toaster was busted, but they had a new one out to us by lunchtime.
One of the fans upstairs was broken, but they directed us to a back-up fan in a closet so that was taken care of right away as well.
Overall our stay was comfortable and the management team was stellar.
