We had an absolutely incredible time here during the lead up to our wedding in September 2025. There was plenty of space for family that was staying with us, and the cabin was a perfect place to destress and connect with everyone before the big day. So many treasured memories.

We had such a wonderful time at this cabins. The cabin was clean and had everything that we needed. The owners were kind and super helpful. The cabin was in a secluded area so we could walk around and enjoy the fall colors with no worries of neighbors. I would recommend bringing your own water to drink if you are not comfortable drinking from a well.

Wonderful winter weekend

Our second time visiting this cabin left us just as impressed as the first. There was plenty of room for our families of 4 and 5, with our pooch. Kids and adults alike greatly enjoyed playing outside in the woods.

Great place in the woods!

What a great place to get away from it all and just relax. Great place with plenty of room and wildlife outside. Only recommendation to other bookings, follow the directions to the place from the host, do not use GPS to get to the cabin. Thank you again for a great stay!

Cute cabin

This cute cabin is set in the middle of a very private wooded area. The hosts were extremely nice and helpful. It is also close enough to town for quick trips. It is a little confusing finding the place but we'll worth the trip.
