    • Mr. Dunbar, All we can say is, "Wow!" We had a woderful time in your beautiful cabin. We found the cabin to be a perfect blend of "old world tradtion" with "new world technlogy." The oringinl cabin part is filled with integrity and beauty. The upstairs addition makes you feel as if you are sleeping in the trees. We just loved our time in the cabin. We also enjoyed spending time in your pontoon boat and fishing on Trailwood Lake. Our nine year old daughter, Maddie, caught an 8+ pound large mouth bass on her first cast! It was a fish of a lifetime. We continued to catch fish throughout the weekend--although none as big as her first--but, the fishing was fun and the surroundings were pristine. Thank you for sharing your wonderful hide-away with us. We will definately return! Sincerely, John, Stephanie and Madelyn Hill

    • June 30 - July 7 2007 We spent a week in this beautiful cabin and enjoyed it thoroughly. The cabin is very roomy, very cozy - just the perfect getaway. It has all you need even for a longer stay - everything is in very good condition and very well maintained. We loved the peace and quiet and the lake as well. Go out on the lake at dusk and you can observe wildlife like deer or different kinds of birds. This vacation was wonderful relaxing.

      Homeowner Response:
      Thanks for everything, and I'm glad you enjoyed your stay!

    • My family stayed at the cabin over the weekend of September 17-19. What a beautiful time of year! The cabin is delightfully rustic, yet still has what I consider to be the necessities - hot showers, flushing toilet, and refrigeration. My husband and his family loved the fishing - caught lots of catfish! I loved the peace and quiet, the donkeys and the sheep. If you are looking for time away from the hustle and bustle - this is it! Thanks for the use of the cabin!

      Homeowner Response:
      Thanks for visiting, and please come again.

    • Stayed at the cabin over Labor Day weekend and had a great time. No tv and no air conditioning reminded me of how it was when I was growing up. A full sized refrigerator with a freezer would be nice, especially for extended stays. Thanks for sharing your cabin.

      Homeowner Response:
      Thanks for your comments! I think a big fridge would be great too, and I'm looking at spaces where it would fit.
