We had a great time. The view was beautiful. To be able to see the mountains from your front porch was awesome. The friendly pets were very nice. We look forward to returning in the spring.

My family was in the area for a Bridgewater College football game. The cabin was the perfect distance from the school, absolutely beautiful location, quiet and cozy. The kitchen was stocked with a lot of the things we needed for cooking. The living space was cozy and the gas fireplace kept it warm on the chilly nights. We got to meet one of the property pigs, which was super cool. We will definitely stay here again!

We came for the fishing and weren't disappointed

What an absolutely beautiful property! Caught fish in the lake and ponds. Saw eagles at the pond by the pavilion and lots of deer. The pig was a big highlight! The whole group seemed pretty content just sitting on the porch and soaking up the mountain views. Thank you again for sharing your beautiful home with us, everyone really enjoyed themselves!!

Great getaway!

Views are amazing! My wife and I loved our stay and had a great time with all the hiking trails close by. Tons of wildlife all around! We really enjoyed eagle watching and the domestic residents as well. Especially the two pigs my wife wanted to take home with us. Cabin is very private and had everything we needed during our stay. Expansive grounds to explore on the property.

Words cannot describe how beautiful the views from the cabin are. You can spend the entire day exploring the beautiful property and fishing or just staying in enjoying the spacious property. The hosts couldn’t be more welcoming and friendly. Highly recommend, especially factoring in how great the price was.

Will miss the pig!

Absolutely wonderful property and location that was so relaxing and fun for a weekend with friends. It's a well-equipped and well-maintained cabin that is cut off from the internet (much-needed amenity). The lake is amazing with great boats. Overall, no complaints, although a pier/floating dock would've been sick! Wish we could've stayed another night.

First of all - I didn’t realize it was no service/Wi-Fi when I booked but it turns out it was exactly what we needed. We had an amazing New Years! From the views to the homey feel to the pigs who visited us, we loved it all and we will be coming back. Highly recommended

Only comment is that the gas logs disconnected was a bit of a let down. Fireplace was a selection criteria for me. Otherwise, it was a great choice and everyone really enjoyed our time there.

Perfect Thanksgiving Getaway!!

The Lakeside Cabin was a beautiful retreat from the hustle and bustle of life. The mountain and lake scenery are breathtaking and my family and I enjoyed walking the trails and birdwatching. We were visited by a precious potbelly pig who welcomed snacks of fruit and veggies. The cabin was comfortable and very clean. The Hewitts were very accommodating and friendly. The kitchen was stocked with all the cookware we needed to make a full Thanksgiving meal. Thanksgiving evening we sat by the fireplace listening to Christmas carols while we drank hot cocoa with whip cream. It was a true Hallmark moment. We loved our stay and will visit again.
