About this property

Cabin, country setting, yet only minutes from everything!

VERY private, secluded get-a-way, without having to drive all the way to the mountains. Access to private creek & small private pond (catch and release).
The space
Comfortably SLEEPS 4. One BEDROOM with QUEEN BED and a 2nd BEDROOM with FULL BED. If you're looking for a nice, cozy, private country/mountain like/ wooded/creek setting, without having to drive miles away from civilization, you found it. Super private location (sits on the back of our 30 privately owned acres). We are just a few minutes drive from all types of shopping and restaurants, too...and on the other side of our creek is a beautiful 18 hole golf course (public, so you can go play a round if that's your thing!! Their entrance is about a 5 minute drive away).....it's really the best of all worlds!
Guest access
Our guests really enjoy the tranquility of the cabin and its property. Whether it's the woods with walking trails, wading in the creek, petting a horse or feeding a cow or simply enjoying the front porch. Kids (adults too) of all ages enjoy the creek. Hand feed the horse, donkeys, cows.They love visitors with treats...which I leave a bag in the cabin for the guests to feed them.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

I have absolutely zero complaints about this property and I stay in rentals most of the year due to work. Hosts are very friendly and communicate well. House is very well stocked. Furniture and beds are cozy and comfortable. Location is amazing. Tucked away from the world but a short drive to everything. Feel like you’re out in nature all by yourself. Plenty of wildlife and peace and quiet. Had many fire in the fire pit at nights. I just don’t have anything negative to say at all. I will definitely be returning but not for work next time as I want to be able to enjoy the property more.

Diamond in the rough

We absolutely enjoyed our stay here. The hosts were accommodating and you could tell they do this for the enjoyment in sharing their space with others. They left some feed for their animals and were more than willing for you to enjoy all the things their property has to offer. Cabin is nice and secluded, it felt clean and well furnished. We absolutely loved playing in the creek but you've been warned, the hill to get there was a bit of an undertaking if you're out of shape or have little ones. Our 1.5 year old did alright but would need to be carried about half way each time. And if you're bringing things, pack light! Otherwise, what a great little getaway. We could see ourselves coming back in the future.

About the host

Hosted by Lori Chimato

Host profile image
My husband and I love taking care of our land and animals...working on it or playing on it. We have three grown children that grew up working and playing here...and still do. A great part of being a host is hearing how our guests enjoy the property and make memories with their families.

Why they chose this property

This cabin adjoins our 30 acres. It's very secluded and private, peaceful and relaxing. I love the woods and creek and watching the animals in the pastures... tranquil and peaceful, yet close to shopping, eating, fuel, entertainment.

What makes this property unique

Our guests tell us how much they enjoy the private, country setting. The creek is a big hit with guests of all ages as well. It's very tranquil. We have goats, horses, donkeys and cows that love treats from our guests...which we leave in the cabin...if our guests wish to feed the animals. The property has a lot of trees and has open pastures with a pond as well.
