The Den was the perfect little get away for a short weekend of exploring the gorge, soaking in the hot tub, and being warm for the 1st time in months. Thank you for sharing with us.

First off have to say hands off to the owners. This property was just perfect. I couldn’t say enough about the overall home feeling. From the back it looks like an ordinary shipping container. You come around to the front to a very calming patio setup with the hot tub, fire pit that was ready to go with everything needed including a log splitter to assist with cutting down your wood. Hot tub was ready to go, even had a grill with fuel to prepare first nights meal. Then you step inside.. the WOW factor for the inside is just not enough. Everything down to the smallest details were just perfect. With such a small space, they managed to make everything possible while still presenting comfort. The all nature wood and feel to the cabin made this stay perfect. We spent our days seeing the trail heads and at night soaking in the hot tub under the stars, firing up the grill for some steaks. Having our meal on the patio looking off to the ridge and cliff of RRG was beyond perfect!!! THANK YOU again for this little piece of heaven can’t wait to come back for another visit!!!

We loved our stay! The place was immaculate and everything worked properly. It’s close enough to town but feels secluded, as well. The hot tub was clean and easy to use. Hikes in the area were beautiful. We’ll be back!

The container

We had an amazing weekend at the container. The hot tub was fantastic and the view was beautiful. The only problem that we had was it said it was easily accessible and it wasn't for a motorcycle which is what we were on.

Anniversary Getaway

My wife and I stayed here to celebrate our 20 year anniversary. We wanted something that wasn’t a tourist trap but close enough to some stuff and this fit the bill. We loved everything about our stay here and would 100% stay here again. Very clean and comfortable. This was a peaceful oasis that we needed! Host was very friendly and attentive.
