However, one thing to note is that the road leading to the cabin is not paved and is filled with potholes. While it didn't detract significantly from our overall experience, it's something to be aware of, especially for those with low-riding vehicles.
Overall, we highly recommend this cozy cabin for a peaceful getaway, and we appreciate the hospitality of the hosts!

Beautiful location, well decorated and super clean space! Very aesthetically pleasing! Clear instructions!
The only thing I notice was a low shower head in the bathroom- as someone 5'4" i had to duck to wash my hair so a higher shower head would have been nice (especially for my 6' partner)- but perfect otherwise!
Would stay again and recommend to a friend!

Place was clean, though you can tell previous guests don’t know how to clean dishes. Kitchen was fully stocked with everything you’d need plus random things leftover from previous guests like spices, flour, etc. We ended cooking a full dinner after stopping at the grocery in Buena Vista on the way.
My only meaningful negative is although the views from bed are amazing, if you want to enjoy them, you should be prepared for people to drive by 10 ft in front of your window. This was the case as my gf and I cuddled in bed the next morning staring at the mountains.
Overall amazing stay and I hope to be back.

Wow! The View!
The unit itself is a studio that works well for a couple. You aren't bothered by the people in the other units. There is a mega-house being built next door that might impact this tranquil setting. The outer shell is done so we weren't impacted by the construction which was limited to the interior while we were there.
The air simpllcity folks were terrific communicators.

We arrived 1.5 hours before the check-in time and the place was obviously cleaned and ready for us, because we could see in through the sliding glass door. Most reasonable hosts wouldn't mind, but when we reached out to the host to ask about an early check-in, they charged a $50 fee, even though the place was ready, and there was nobody at the site being inconvenienced. This really gave us the feeling we were dealing with a big business instead of a local host that we are accustomed to. Luckily there was a beautiful lake nearby that we hung out at while we waited.
There were little things that made us feel like the hosts were out of touch with the property. The WiFi listed on the profile was incorrect and we had to contact them to get the correct one. The check out procedures asked us to load last-minute dishes in the dishwasher, and there is no dishwasher. The place in constructed in a clunky manner: some drawers in the kitchen don't open all the way because they run into each other's handles, the closets have trendy sliding doors that are unable to open all the way. Small things like that.
Also, some dishes waiting for us in the cabinets were not fully cleaned.
Overall, we had a good time. The place itself is just fine. But it's not fair to give a 5-star review for this stay when other 5-star hosts go above and beyond.

The cabin itself is comfortable and has mostly everything you'll need, though a few more kitchen amenities would be helpful for cooking.
The host was super easy to work with, and communication was great.
We loved being able to have our little dogs with us, so that was a huge perk.
My only real complain is the internet - it'd be fine for most people there on vacation, but I'd you need to work remotely like we did, it is less than ideal. We had to use hotspots on our phones most of the time, and even then, there was a lag in all of our calls. But you are up in the mountains, so this is really to be expected. As long as having really good internet isn't a must for you, this is an awesome place to stay, and we would stay here again!

Notes
BRINGING ALONG YOUR FURRY FRIEND?
Let us know a little about your dog(s) and we should be able to accommodate with an adjustment to our cleaning fee. $75 cleaning fee per dog, maximum two dogs only. Sorry, no cats permitted.
Events are subject to approval. Please note event fees will apply.
THE WILDLIFE:
There are animals around the premises including many deer, foxes, multiple species of raptors and other birds, armadillos, many rabbits, black bears, mountain goats, bighorn sheep, mountain lions, coyotes and more! You won’t see all of these at the cabin, but if you get out on the trails, you might get lucky...
MOUNTAIN LIVING
1. We are located just shy of 10,000 feet so please drink plenty of water to avoid altitude sickness.
2. Sometimes the wind kicks up to remind us of all the things we cannot control, but it usually settles down again within a few hours. You would be best not to leave belongings outside.
3. Wildlife is somewhat rare but has been known to wander through so please do not leave food outside at night.
4. Be prepared with lots of clothing layers so you can adapt to changing conditions. Mountain storms come and go quickly.
RESPECT
The Wolf Cabin is located in a remote, tiny mountain town. Twin Lakes is pretty amazing; in fact, our family is a little apprehensive to share it with others. As visitors to the area, please think about your impact on our town and the small surrounding communities. Please respect full-time residents' privacy and solitude. Follow Leave No Trace guidelines when visiting and recreating in the beautiful outdoors, and consider supporting local dining and shopping during your stay.
SMOKING
We like to keep our cabins as fresh as the outside alpine air. If you need to smoke, you'll need to step outside to do so. There will be a $600 fine for any smoking inside the cabins.
FIRE
There is currently a fire ban in place. Violations of this prohibition is punishable as a Class B misdemeanor by a fine of not more than $5,000. Please be careful and check with Lake County for more recent updates.
