About this property

LOG Cabin, 5 miles from town, but very country setting

This cute log cabin was built by my grandparents about 35 years ago. The cabin is a little over 5 miles from downtown Somerset, and about 30 minutes from the lake. Play golf up the road at Eagle's Nest Country Club if you don't want to go to the lake, or play a round before the monthly car show. The road is a residential road, with little traffic. Area is very quite, and gets dark, but night time is a great for a time to gather around the fire pit in the back yard. There is enough room in the front to park several cars, and enough room to park the boat when you pull it out of the water.

House also has a pack-n-play in the master closet.

House includes a charcoal grill. Fire wood for the fire pit can be purchased locally if there is none in the back yard.

The master bedroom has a queen bed with ample room, sleeps 2.
The second bedroom has a bunk bed with a twin on top and a full on the bottom, sleeping 3. There is a sleeper sofa in the livingroom, sleeping 2 there as well.

Laundry facilities are also in the bathroom.

House does have internet, as well as a roku with YouTube TV in the livingroom. As well as a firestick with YouTubeTV in the master bedroom.

No smoking is allowed in the house. However, there is an ash tray provided on the front and back porch.

We've stayed here before and it is comfortable and economical, and for us the location is ideal at 2 miles from my mother in law's.The cabin is quaint with pastoral views and tranquility abounds. The beds are reasonably comfy and the accommodations more than adequate. My only complaint was that basic details were overlooked - objectivity brings fresh eyes that the owner may have become "noseblind" to.The front doormat is very sad, the mouse in the trap under the sink was long dead, the outdoor chairs and table were filthy, I had to adust the outdoor light strings to plug together, all candles were burnt down, and we had to hunt for the horse shoes. VRBO charges a nominal cleaning fee - I don’t usually leave a property significantly better than I found it - and that is a shame. Surely Grandma would take a little more pride in her Place. Thanks for having us.

I'm sorry about the areas we are lacking in. I was out of town, and I had someone clean it for me. We just had a person leave after a 6 week stay. VRBO might charge the fee, but I don't get it. I mowed yesterday, and noticed the outside things you were mentioning, and it will be addressed. I just wish you would of alerted me before you left.

About the host

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

This property was built from the ground up by my grandparents in the early 1980's. They built it small for them, so that is why it is small. It is too small for my family, but i don't want to get rid of it either. I have tried the whole rental property in the normal sense, but after getting burned a couple times, it is now just vacations only.

What makes this property unique

The cabin is not far from town, only about 5.5 miles, but it feels like you are in the country! I grew up in the area, so I know it well. Not a busy road, not a busy area. It is close to Eagle's Nest Country Club and Golf course.
