The cabin is beautiful. We came south for a day of Jeeping a few this VRBO was perfect for us. We drove down with doors and top off and had a huge, clean shed to park in for the night. That is a huge plus for jeepers! Check in was easy as well as communication with owner. Clean space, lovely scenery.

This was the perfect cabin to stay in to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and enjoy peace and quiet. The cabin was exceptionally clean, well stocked with beautiful views of a lake that you can enjoy with your coffee in the morning on the screened in porch Our host Megan was wonderful very easy check-in. She also checked on us to make sure we didn’t need anything. we love this place so much. We will definitely come back when we come to visit our grandchildren they loved going out on the boat and fishingWe had a wonderful four day three nights day

One of the most beautiful properties I’ve ever seen . Was calm , and serenity just a few miles outside town . The property was immaculate and so inviting . We loved fishing off the dock and had some great laughs as a family . Caught alot of fish , and felt at peace . We will definitely be staying again , already looking at dates I can go back and sit outside and see the breathtaking view . Highly recommend 10/10 . Host was very helpful.

10/10 would stay here again. Serene location with a small lake on the property with tons of fish. Owners even provided rowboat and life jackets. We also saw deer, frogs and a wild turkey. Comfy beds and well stocked kitchen with everything we needed.

This was a marvelous location close to our family that live nearby. The house was clean and tidy and just perfect for what we needed for the weekend. Plenty of parking for guest and my house were very nice. They even came out in the middle of a rain storm and cut up a tree that fell across the driveway. Their prompt Service allowed our grandkids to get back to their house and in bed in a more timely manner. Thanks to them so much for that. Can’t wait till we get another opportunity to go back.

Megan had the cabin decorated for Valentines Day, it was an unexpected touch. The cabin is very nice, secluded and beautiful scenery all around. I highly recommend it if you like nature.

We had a wonderful stay! The house was great—very clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated for Christmas, which made it feel extra special. The private lake was a highlight for us; fishing kept us entertained and relaxed throughout our stay. Everything was well maintained, and we truly enjoyed our time here. We would absolutely stay again and recommend this home to others.

Our stay was delightful, the house is a gem in the woods.There were so many birds in the morning along with the turkey and deer. We walked the property and it all was so peaceful and serene. The house was very nice and everything in it. Highly recommended for some quality sound with nature, rest and renewal. Thank you

This was our 2nd time staying here and so looking forward to our 3rd later this year. Nothing beats the peace and quiet this property offers. Megan is a amazing host!! Making sure wife and I had everything we need to enjoy our stay. If your staying in or around this area, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND giving this home a try. Also stop by the lake and say Hi to Richard the turtle. Haha! " He the large one in the lake "

Our stay here was peaceful and enjoyable. It was easy to get to, off of a quiet road in a rural area. There are multiple porches for sitting outside and enjoying the beauty of the pond and the woods. It was a wonderful place to spend hours watching and listening to a variety of birds. And when you do want to go inside, there are comfortable amenities. We were able to park in the garage, which we were thankful for during a storm. The host was helpful and easy to communicate with. This is a great place to spend some time relaxing.
