About
Garber Kiowa Retreat is a classic chalet with wraparound forest views on a level corner lot. With vaulted wood ceilings, open floor plan and a deck off the living room, you will not want to leave!

The living room has a 40" smart TV with Comcast cable, good and fast WIFI, VCR, CD & DVD players, free HULU account as well as a small DVD and VHS library. There are also board games, puzzles, and books for guests to enjoy. There is room for three at the kitchen counter - enjoy breakfast or a quick snack right there. The dining table seats eight comfortably.
On the main floor, there are two bedrooms - each with a queen bed and the bathroom has a shower/tub combo. On the main floor, there is also is a stacked washer/dryer for guest use. Upstairs is a small loft with a foosball table, sofa, beanbag chair and small VCR unit no TV or cable (there is a very small TV and cable for the kids so this is not needed). The bedroom upstairs has a queen and two twin beds. The upstairs bathroom has a tub/shower combo.
Enjoy summer barbecues around the picnic table or just enjoy the views with your morning cup of coffee. There is a charcoal barbecue on the deck for guest use (guests should bring their own charcoal.) Volleyball net for guest use also. Big Trees State Park walking access is 0.5 miles from the cabin, at the dead-end of Cheyenne way, and there are miles of off street old fire roads for hiking or skiing one block from the cabin.

This was a great house and was very comfortable for our family of 4, with an extra set of grand parents joining us for a couple of days.
The kitchen was well stocked and I especially appreciated the beautiful handmade mugs (maybe the owner is a potter?)
I’d definitely choose to stay here again in the future!

The house is great! The wifi isn’t, and you should bring all the food you’ll need including oil, salt, pepper etc, because there isn’t any there to share.

A nice place to stay, good location. Beds quite firm, we prefer softer ones. Nice addition of sheets and towels, but no kitchen towels. Kitchen fairly well stocked, but be aware no foil, napkins or baggies so bring your own. I was glad I brought my own sponge since there was nothing to clean with. Master bedroom a bit odd with 3 beds in it. Loved the deck!

The house itself is quite beautiful, although very outdated furniture and amenities. I did not mind that so much but if you’re looking for updated that may be an issue for you. Honestly, the biggest issue for us was the fact that there was no air-conditioning. When I went back and read the amenities I noticed air conditioning was not listed but of course that was not some thing I was looking for when I booked the house. It gets so hot in the summer up in the mountains I just assumed there would be air. The house pretty much stayed at 82° the entire time we were there. It went down only a couple degrees at night. This would have been bearable if there were fans in every room but there was not. There was one small broken fan in a closet downstairs and one portable fan that was working in the living room. There’s also a ceiling fan in the living room which helps only if you’re directly under it because the ceiling is so high. Leaving doors and windows open did nothing because there was no breeze whatsoever. No drapes. When the portable fan was on us,it was bearable but again there was only one. I don’t see why there wouldn’t be fans like that in every room if you knew you didn’t have air conditioning. Fans are pretty inexpensive and having fans all over the house would’ve made the trip completely different. Otherwise it’s a very beautiful and quiet area. Lots of squirrels running around and we saw a coyote and a bat. The deck is great to sit out on. I wish they had reclining chairs that you could lay back on, that would be nice and perhaps more comfortable chairs around the table. There was a nice wood table on the deck but it had cheap plastic chairs around it and one bench, neither of which were super comfortable but of course doable. It was still a very nice time. The heat made it impossible to be in the upstairs area and loft which was a bummer since my daughter was looking forward to making that area her ow
Great Cozy Cabin

We really love the area & enjoyed staying in this home. There are perhaps some issues with animals invading the home (inside walls & ceilings) as they can be heard quite frequently.
The property owner requires that you bring your own bed linens & towels, which can be inconvenient, but we understand under the COVID conditions.
Manager's Response
Glad you enjoyed your stay. A very comfortable home and enjoyed by many returning guests. First time hearing about any critters possibly occupying the cabin walls? The squirrels are busy preparing for winter and are more than likely walking the roof top. Hope to see these guests again.

Pleasant, comfortable house. A few minor issues. The Nest thermostat wasn’t working when we arrived. Had to call the management company who stated that this had been a problem for awhile. The rep guided us to the “emergency” thermostat, and how to hook it up. Deck floodlight is not fully functional. 10am checkout time is too early. The cabin’s informational binder states it is 11am. Apparently the binder needs to be reviewed and updated.
