Absolutely lovely cabin, we stay here every year. Hosts are extremely responsive and I've never had any issues. They seem to think of everything that someone could need or want and prepare for it ahead of time. Property is beautiful and clean and couldn't ask for more peace and quiet than this!

What a wonderful cabin in the woods. I would have never imagined that a full waterfall and mountain view was attainable in such a comfortable camp. It’s in perfect location in the adk and full of surprises just down the road. I hope to return soon.
