What a beautiful little cabin! We absolutely adored the place and had such a peaceful experience. The hot tub was wonderful as well as the pond! Not very far from the trails and winerys either! The cabin was very clean and had lovely decor that made it so inviting. We loved our stay and would definitely recommend if you are looking for the perfect little getaway.

Pictures in listing are deceiving. They fail to show the house directly across from cabin thus making you believe it is a private area. Host offered to refund money but we had nowhere else to go. The cabin was very clean except for shower which had either mold or grime at its base. Host responded promptly to the hot tub filled with suds and the bbq grill gas outage.

Perfect girls’ trip

We have stayed with Geloria several times, and each time is even better than the last! If you’re looking for a peaceful spot to relax and recharge, this is it. The cabin is quaint, cute, clean, and stocked with all the essentials. We had the privilege of watching the first hummingbirds of the season. Geloria is the perfect host, and look forward to staying here again!

One of our favorite places

We have stayed here several times for our anniversary & plan on being back. We always have a fun, relaxing time. Theres a hot tub, fishing, & a fire pit on the property. We typically go on a hike and/or to a winery during our stay. Ive only seen one negative review on here & honestly no clue what was wrong with them cuz its a perfect place for some rekaxation. There is a house across the pond but never felt like we were being watched or anything like that. There is a dog that vusits but hes sweet! Just dont keep any food outside unattended just in case. Highly recommend!
