Darling cabin on beautiful property

Wonderful mini cabin nestled in the trees. Cabin is clean and comfortable. Providing a few more amenities (hair dryer, basic kitchen items) would move the rating from a four to five.

Clean, Cozy and Comfortable

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at Mini Manor. It had everything we needed for our weekend getaway. Loved having the binder with clear instructions on everything and even included recommended restaurants. The host was very quick to respond which is a BIG plus. 👍

A GREAT GET AWAY!

Highly recommended if you want a great place to let your mind and body rest. The hot tub was used every day and the fire pit was perfectly set up. I spent several hours just setting in the screened-in porch looking at the woods and enjoying the breeze with no sounds from others (vehicles or voices).

Perfect Little Getaway

Took the family for a long weekend and this was a great home base! So much to do in the area, then nice to come back to a hot tub and fire pit in the evening. Community had nice amenities and this location is a close (but not too close) to the playground that my boys loved playing on. Only recommendation for those staying is to bring extra towels if they plan on using the hot tub, the house comes with 4.

Relaxing

Nice little getaway. Very relaxing. Enjoyed sitting outside and listening to the birds and saw deer and a rabbit. Rosie’s was a nice place to grab a bite to eat. Enjoyed fire-pit and hot tub after a day of hiking. Mini Manor had everything we needed to unwind.

Exceeded expectations!

Wow - as a landlord/short-term rental host myself, I have pretty high standards for properties that I visit. First and foremost, I was quite impressed with the quality of construction of this tiny home along with the decor-- it seems as though they've thought of everything! Small touches like twinkle lights on the porch, outdoor fans for the dining area on the deck, side tables for the hot tub, and nearly every kitchen utensil a person would need did not go unnoticed. Don't hesitate to book this place if you're considering-- you won't regret it!

Thank you for the memories!

Our family of five had the PERFECT retreat to kick off the summer! The photos in the listing are out of date. The property is much prettier than the photos. The couch has been upgraded to leather. As another reviewer mentioned, the hot tub is 6 person and was hot and steamy right when arrived! The unit was spotless when we arrived and stocked with plenty of towels, dish soap, dish towel and dish cloth and an unopened dish sponge. Not enough shampoo and no conditioner. Definitely make sure you bring shower toiletries. This is our second time staying at retreat but our first time in this unit. I brought some dish drying mats after our last stay — recommend. You’ll also want to bring lighter fluid but the unit has all the grill tools and firewood you’ll need. Plenty of towels were ready for our family, but being your own beach towels for the hot tub. We will certainly be back!
