COMMENTS from our guests:

"We loved your home...! Other rentals simply do not compare to this gracious home. Everything was absolutely perfect. We hope to come back soon! Your new friends, Trisha and Bill, Virginia Beach, VA."

"The rustic feel of the log cabin took us back in time, and it is so artfully furnished, we spent a lot of time just exploring and looking at things in the home...

The deck is large, with such comfortable furniture, my husband and I dozed in the afternoon while watching the wildlife come and go on the river beside the house. We have 4 kids, and love to hike. The mountain behind the house provided a wonderful view to valleys to East and West
