Guest Feedback
4.93 Average Across 13,000+ Direct Stays
Booked direct after two Airbnb stays — same house, noticeably cheaper, and ROAM answered a text in four minutes when the grill ran out of propane.
We came for the trails and the location was perfect. Gear storage, dry room, maps on the counter — they get it.
Spotless, well stocked, and the hot tub was actually hot. We've already rebooked for fall.
