Loved this cabin. So cosy and comfortable. The screened in front porch was wonderful to just sit and relax, with wooded views everywhere you look. Just what we were hoping for. The cabin was very clean and well stocked with everything you might need. Jane, the host was very attentive and helpful.

Jane was an amazing host and the cabin was a perfect getaway. We loved sitting on the screened porch and listening to the birds and crickets in the woods around the house. The wood interiors and charming bear decor make this a perfect mountain hideaway. Bonus points to Jane, who kindly offered to ship items we left behind. Highly recommend.

Jane was an excellent hostess. I really enjoyed conversing with her. I loved the cabin especially the screened in front porch and of course the hot tub. I wished I could have stayed longer. The gift shop was an added touch.
