We had a great stay here. Very peaceful location. The wrap around deck and hut tub were relaxing and much enjoyed. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to make our meals. Great location to all the nearby hiking. Our host was very helpful and attentive.
The place was exactly as advertised, clean, comfortable, and relaxing. The host was very responsive to several emails. I sent requesting some information regarding our stay. We were provided helpful information about navigating the national park, popular hikes, just wonderful hospitality.
Cabin was clean private had everything we needed even fire woods and chairs, hot was clean and hot, kitchen had everything you would need to cook or bake with. Great place!
This was our 6th visit and we absolute LOVE this cabin. It's clean, big hot tub on deck with great views, pet friendly - which we really love - comfortable and nice layout. Has all the kitchen amenities you need, wonderful wrap around porch, located at end of cul de sac so great privacy, fire pit and fire wood which we used every morning, etc., etc., etc.
Had a wonderful stay at this Cabin, very peaceful and they had everything we needed there. We went horseback riding and hiking at the scenic Parks nearby.Enjoyed relaxing on the beautiful wraparound porch when we got back.
We really enjoyed our stay at this cabin. It’s located in a very wooded, secluded spot several miles outside of Jamestown. The kitchen definitely had anything you need to cook or grill. All toiletries, paper and cleaning supplies were provided. The hot tub was very relaxing. We would recommend this cabin to anyone wanting to get out in nature. Thank you for sharing it with us!
The property is beautiful. It's dark at night. You can see all the stars. It's quiet. It's everything you need it to be to relax. We had a wonderful time. This is our second stay and we loved it as much this time as last time.
Quaint cabin nestled in the woods. Perfect for spending time with family. Hiking trails nearby. Listing was accurate, we highly recommend. Pups enjoyed their stay as well!
We loved the house and location. The house is at the end of a dead end street and was surrounded by the woods. Very clean and well maintained and had everything we needed.
The cabin was clean, well decorated, and very comfortable. It accommodated myself, my husband, and two other couples easily. It was within short driving distance to beautiful trails, and a ten minute drive to the astronomy field! Highly recommend this property, already daydreaming about staying there again in the future!

Why they chose this property
We absolutely love this cabin and the area. It's so beautiful and serene and the perfect getaway for a couple, family, or group of friends. It's beyond nice to have your horses right there where you can see them, be able to tack up and just ride off directly from the cabin to various trails within the park.
