Love this hug cabin in the woods! Very nice 5KING bedroom main with the game house and extra beds! Super peaceful and loved the outdoor hot tub and grill. Wonderful gathering place to CHill!
The layout of the main house was perfect for us—all one level. It was ideal to have the game room separate, and we took advantage of the volleyball court.
Game room was great and setup was convenient for family!

The cabin was perfect for our group - the big kids had a space to themselves and there was plenty of hang out space with loss to do. The bedrooms were lovely and the property is beautiful. This place is fantastic and would definitely recommend!
