Guests' relaxation, satisfaction and enjoyment of their time here at "Heaven On Earth" at Chimney Hill Resort are paramount to us. We love to travel and we know how important clean accommodations are - and to that end, we strive. We purchased the house with the intent to provide guests with a spectacular location and clean house, but at lower cost. The famous saying “You get what you paid for” does not apply here as we are striving to surpass expectations.
We bought this property because it is located in a four-season spectacular area. We wanted to provide to our family and extended family a place to go at any time of the year and be able to relax and recharge among beautiful nature. Our dream is to establish a retreat here for those looking for physical, mental, and spiritual rejuvenation. This place (the cabin and the Mountain Snow area) is a perfect setting to do this at any time of the year. The property is very special to us and we love to share it with others who find it special as well!
