Stay tuned for updates to this property as Camp Run Amuck will be added in 2022! The newly remodeled Camp Run Amuck cottage sits next to our Blue Mountain Retreat.

Review
The house was super easy to find and check-in process was easy! The home was warm and cozy and the shower had excellent water pressure. The house wasn’t as clean as one would hope. Dirty towels and empty beer cans were left in one bedroom. And crumbs were in the sofa cushions. Something else to consider is that the walls are very thin in the house, so once the kids wake up - everyone is up ;) Location to seven springs was very convenient, we had a great ski trip!
Owner's Response: Thank you for staying with us and providing your feedback. This home is definitely super convenient for ski weekends being that it is so close to both Hidden Valley and Seven Springs. It's also great to know that the cottage was super easy to find and check in was just as easy. Though not great to hear on the cleanliness, we do appreciate your feedback there as well. We've presented these details to our housekeeping and they have committed to catching these cleaning details. They work hard and are dependable; but, they clearly missed these details for your stay. We look forward to the opportunity to improve what we do. On the thin walls, we have not heard this before; so not sure if this is a fact associated with your kids noise or your sensitivity to sound. Again, thank you!We had everything we needed for our short 3 day family winter trip to seven springs (20-25 min) and hidden valley (10 min). Very roomy place. Recently renovated. Clean and cozy. If the weather was worse we would have needed to use 4WD for in and out of parking area. Our cars have it, but just something for others to note. Upstairs bedrooms get a little hot, even with thermostat on 68, but it was manageable. Also the floors aren’t quiet if you’ve got little ones running around. All those things are probably no big deal unless you have small heavy footed children like us. If you like pot coffee, make sure to pack one. There was a keurig so we brought our own. That’s probably me being overly critical and pretty standard for a holiday rental. We would come back. There were tons of games and even toys for our kids. They loved being here. They’re already asking to return to the ‘blue cabin.’ Also close to a couple local restaurants. You don’t need to come here expecting to rough it. We didn’t use them but there were bikes to take for a spin, a hot tub, and a really cool fire pit area. Maybe we will check those out next time!
Owner's Response: Thank you for staying at our Blue Mountain Retreat. So, glad to have you as our guest. We do agree 4WD or AWD is really a requirement to stay here during the winter months--so, appreciate the shout to future guests. So, glad you enjoyed the games and felt comfortable and cozy. We've not heard the comment on upstairs being warm before. I supposed better than it being cold :) but still appreciate knowing your perspective. Hope to have you back to the "blue" house when you can try the bike, fire pit and hot tub!Great place for a weekend getaway. The place was great and very clean. Would definitely recommend staying here.
Owner's Response: Thanks for staying with us and being a great guest! Most of all so glad to hear you found everything very clean--always appreciate hearing that! Come on back again real soon!The house is very nicely decorated. Extremely clean! Beds were comfortable. Had everything you needed there. Outside fire pit was awesome. Easy to find and close to restaurants and shopping. Excellent place to stay!
Owner's Response: So, glad you enjoyed your time with us and that you had everything you needed to enjoy your stay. The Blue Mountain Retreat is close to everything nearby. Come on back again real soon.My boyfriend and I stayed at the beautiful cabin for a weekend getaway. The cabin is beautiful! Just like in the pictures. There are plenty oh hiking trails a few minutes drive away. The hot tub is a wonderful way to relax after a fun day of exploring!
Owner's Response: Wonderful to hear that you enjoyed a romantic getaway at our Blue Mountain Retreat for a weekend getaway. There are definitely lots of hiking trails in the area and close to the ski resorts as well. We love that the hot tub is there too after a long day of hiking! Hope to have you back again real soon!Very clean, well stocked, nicely furnished house. Owners were very responsive. Would recommend 4 wheel or higher clearance car as road is a little rough. Enjoyed our week there.
Owner's Response: Thank you for staying with us and providing a guest review. We certainly appreciate it. Great to be a responsive as possible! We also think it is a good idea to have a 4WD or higher clearance vehicle as the road can be a little rough. Thanks for sharing your thoughts for future guests.We had a very relaxing time and enjoyed eating at Oakhurst and rustic mountain pizza. The only thing that concerned me when we got there was the ac was in window units in the bedrooms only. I am always hot. But it was not an issue at all. There were plenty of fans and the fresh air was nice.
Owner's Response: Thank for staying with us and taking the time to provide a guest review. So, glad that you enjoyed your stay with us. Yes, the a/c units are in the upstairs bedrooms--so, sleeping, even in the heat of the summer is comfortable. The 1st floor is surprisingly cool (it is a house in the mountain). So, glad it was comfortable for your stay!Rented this cabin for the weekend for 6 adults and 2 kids. Plenty of room for everyone, lots of activities provided by the owner's, and close to area attractions. Very satisfied with our stay.
Owner's Response: Thank you for taking the time to provide a guest review! So, glad that you enjoyed the "roominess" of our cottage. It is definitely super close to area attractions! Come on back again real soon!Over all it was a good place to get away. All of the updates for the house were charming. The beds were comfortable and same with the couch. The down stairs bathroom was lovely but upstairs, we were nervous if you leaned on the sink that it was going to fall off the fall. I'm guessing that the upstairs bathroom will be updated like the rest of the house and same with the stairs being finished. We were a little surprised by the yard or lack of it, so it is not an activity friendly yard.
Owner's Response: Thank you for taking the time to provide a guest review. So, glad that you enjoyed the updates to this charming home. The owners have worked hard to completely remodel this home--and they are not done. It's true. The back yard is a work in progress and the owners have amazing plans for it that are likely to be accomplished this summer! Appreciate your feedback. Hope to have you back so you can enjoy it!I am very happy with the responsiveness and the flexibility when working with you guys! I would highly recommend this stay. They are always available when you need them and willing to work with you and your needs. Highly recommend!
Owner's Response: Thank you. So, glad to hear that you were pleased with our responsiveness and flexibility. We certainly try to accommodate guests anyway we can.We enjoyed our visit in this cozy and inviting space. It's obvious you have worked hard and done a wonderful job! Loved the children's room with the double bunks. The first floor bathroom with the unexpected luxurious soaking tub was a real hit with us! We look forward to a return visit.
Owner's Response: So, glad you enjoyed your stay with us! The soaking tub really is an unexpected gem in this family friendly vacation rental. We look forward to having you back!
