We love staying at Lydia Mountain!
This was our 4th rental on the mountain and it was a great stay as always! Only tips for this property would be that the bedroom door in the bunk room cannot close (big is too big) so don't expect privacy in this room.
And as is true for all cabins, PLEASE turn the hot tub on before the guests arrive! It's such a bummer not to be able to use the hot tub the first night. Our kids insisted on using it anyway and they came out with blue lips!

Great time
Great little cabin. Well equipped. We had a lovely time. Basement bedroom could use a space heater because that floor was chilly.

Wonderful house
We had a wonderful stay and then house is beautiful. Came with many toys to keep you busy. Corn hole, dart board, pickle ball, videos games, just to name a few. The hot tub and fire pit were great as well. My only piece of feedback would be to supply grilling utensils. Other than that small thing, the stay was fabulous!
