Spacious cabin. Noisy dog and roosters in the area at times but windows are sound proof and cabin is very quiet. Great hiking around. Good fire pit out back for roasting smores. Good temperature control. Ants and love bugs around but cabin is kept clean. Overall a fun, relaxing stay!

Response from VrboOwner on Sep 28, 2026
Thanks for staying with us! We are glad you enjoyed the cabin and got to spend some time hiking and around the fire pit. The roosters and occasional country noise definitely come with being out here, so I’m glad the cabin stayed nice and quiet for you. We appreciate the feedback and would love to welcome you back again!
