The Space:

The forest greets you with a hush, the air crisp and scented with pine as light filters through the canopy. Inside, a wood‑burning fireplace crackles, casting a warm glow that invites you to settle into the cabin’s quiet rhythm. Outside, string lights twinkle on the deck, and the fire pit waits for evenings when the stars peek through bare branches. Here, each day unfolds slowly, offering space to breathe, explore, and simply be.



Sleeping arrangements

The cabin sleeps four. On the main level, the primary bedroom holds a king bed, promising restful nights after a day on the trails. Upstairs, an open loft features a queen bed, perfect for family members or close friends who enjoy a shared space. The loft’s open design adds a sense of airy comfort while keeping the sleeping areas cozy.



Kitchen & dining

A fully equipped kitchen provides everything you need to prepare simple meals, from a stovetop to a microwave and ample counter space. A dining table sits nearby, making it easy to transition from cooking to sharing a meal or a board game. The Smart TV in the living area offers movies and shows for relaxed evenings, while Wi‑Fi is available for light streaming, understanding that service may vary in this remote setting.



Outdoor living

Step onto a spacious deck where string lights create a soft glow at dusk. A fire pit offers a second gathering spot for chilly nights, and a BBQ grill lets you enjoy a warm cookout even when the temperature drops. The surrounding acre of woods invites quiet walks, leaf‑covered paths, and moments of reflection amid the trees.



Conveniences & comforts

A washer and dryer, bathroom essentials, and free on‑site parking add practical ease to longer stays. The cabin is dog‑friendly, so your canine companion can share the forest retreat. Heating and air conditioning keep the interior comfortable year‑round.

About the host

Host profile image
I live in DC with my wife and three young kids. I love camping/hiking, drinking (and sometimes brewing) great beer and wine, exploring new restaurants and shops, and traveling all over.

What makes this property unique

We spent years searching for the perfect getaway, and wanted to be close enough to DC that we could do a day trip. We fell in love with the area – and this cabin in particular. We love how cute and cozy our cabin is, and all the fun outdoor activities we can enjoy year-round. :)
