The cabin is located in a small rural town, settled in the woods and very peaceful. It was a perfect location for a reset.

The cabin

The cabin was great we enjoyed our stay but the guy I spoke with failed to mention that it had close neighbors. Other than that it was amazing and we loved it.

Enjoyed hiking, beautiful cabin

Very nice cabin with well-equipped kitchen. A few other cabins in the vicinity and a convenience store nearby. Other than that, nature. We enjoyed hiking, the hot tub, and the whirlpool bath. There is no WiFi but a collection of DVDs and even VHS, but we didn’t get around to watching any. Lots of games as well.

The cabin was beautiful and comfortable to stay in. We wish, that for the price, there was wifi available. We were told upon booking that local channels were available but found out during our stay that they were not. Also, the firewood that was provided was sections of tree logs that were not split into firewood and were difficult to handle and light. If we hadn’t scavenged for smaller branches in the woods we would not have had a camp fire at all. If you plan to use the fire pit, would highly advise bringing firewood with you.Outside of those things, we enjoyed our stay and would consider staying again.

Artist Getaway

I had an amazing retreat at the Derby Serenity! It was a perfect place for me to enjoy an “Artist Getaway.” I brought a drop cloth, easel and canvas and reconnected with my inner creative self. Not only was it peaceful, but it was immaculate! I’ve never stayed anywhere that was this clean! It was such a relief after several “not so clean” experiences at other rentals. The cabin was well stocked - great cook and table ware. Lots of games and movies. The hot tub was WONDERFUL. I especially liked, that although rural, I didn’t feel completely isolated. Perfect getaway if you want to disconnect from the outside. I’ll definitely refer and revisit! Thank you!

Amazing cabin,Spotless and well equipped

The cabin was cozy and well equipped in beautiful surroundings. Out of many stays in many places this has been our favorite. So much thought has been given to the comfort of the guest. We look forward to staying at this cabin again in the fall and bringing our kids. We will seek out properties from you in the future. Thank you for making our 23rd wedding anniversary special and memorable
