Magical Family Christmas Holiday
We stayed here for a week between Christmas and New Year’s and had a blast in the house and the local community. The house is well-appointed with drinks and snacks, soaps and shampoos, fully made comfortable beds, plenty of linens, and has a full laundry, handy for longer stays or stops on longer trips. We didn’t use the workshop but it is well-appointed and seems like it would be a very productive work/share space with a full bath and kitchen. Beautiful property with Mule deer passing through and saying hello daily. We enjoyed a heavy snowfall half-way through the week that saw us snowed in for awhile in a magical winter landscape. The driveway got plowed early the next morning, far earlier than we were ready to drive on the snowy roads. A wonderful, magical holiday vacation for us.

Amazing property!!
Beautiful place so absolutely perfect for a large group of people. I felt like I was in the movie Grown ups with all our children able to sleep in one room, they had a blast! We had everything we needed and more! This host went above and beyond! I would 100% stay here again! We saw deer, fed chipmunks on the porch, the kids played outside the whole time, such a large space to play!

Gingerbread Cottage a Delight
My husband, son and I had a delightful stay at this property. Our adult son was thrilled to have the entire upstairs all to himself. So glad a gas grill was provided. We loved watching the wildlife in the early morning. Very comfortable. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Great house for a family trip
We stayed at the Gingerbread House with our adult children and our young grandchildren when we were in the area for a wedding. The house was family friendly with a nice play set outside and plenty of beds for all. Alison, the owner, was very responsive to all our needs. The kitchen was well stocked and the area was private. The house worked well for our group.

Fishing weekend
Terrific spot for a weekend of fishing with 5280 Anglers; 10 minutes from Bailey, 15 minutes from Boxwood Gulch. Clean, plenty of beds and room, nicely stocked with everything you need. Especially enjoyed the rocking chairs on the porch. Thank you!
