About this property

"Wonderful cabin getaway" "Just what we wanted" "Oh, the view from the sunroom"

Be welcomed by gently sloped seven acres of peace. Notice to your right when coming in the cantilevering dock at the one acre 'pond'. After a day of rafting or shopping relax with cool breeses. Morning coffee with extra quiet. The warm setting of natural wood finished
interior brings peace to the soul. A welcoming sunroom to start your day with coffee and the morning view.
Our yard is big and level enough to handle V-ball, soccer, football or /what ever you bring as a hobby.
We have acres of pleasant walking areas for private exercise and time for strolling to relax and gather your thoughts. Private, Quiet and Convenient.

Picture Perfect View
We had a wonderful stay. The cabin was immaculate and well stocked with the basics. It was quiet and restful with a beautiful sunroom view which overlooked a pastoral scene with mountains in the background. The host was very friendly and accommodating. Our stay could not have been better.

Our Special Place
This was our second visit this year to this wonder retreat. We absolutely love this cabin and the Algers! Dave and Jennifer go out of their way to make sure that every stay is perfect. We had a wonderful week celebrating my Husband’s birthday (made even more special by a sweet treat from the Algers). The view from the cabin never disappoints and area itself always has something to explore. We will be back soon.
