We really enjoyed our stay at this cabin. It’s located in a very wooded, secluded spot several miles outside of Jamestown. The kitchen definitely had anything you need to cook or grill. All toiletries, paper and cleaning supplies were provided. The hot tub was very relaxing. We would recommend this cabin to anyone wanting to get out in nature. Thank you for sharing it with us!

Quiet and relaxing

The property is at the end of the road, so there is a lot of privacy. It was quiet and lots of nature around to explore. I would recomend something for motion sickness as the roads are very curvy. All in all, my family enjoyed their stay.

An enchanted 30th birthday weekend!

The cabin was clean, well decorated, and very comfortable. It accommodated myself, my husband, and two other couples easily. It was within short driving distance to beautiful trails, and a ten minute drive to the astronomy field! Highly recommend this property, already daydreaming about staying there again in the future!

Great location to hiking trails.

Lovely home in a quiet neighborhood. Wish we owned horses, perfect place for them. But we came for the hiking. Close to many trails in all 3 recreation areas. Owners were very responsive and quick to answer questions.

Why they chose this property

We absolutely love this cabin and the area. It's so beautiful and serene and the perfect getaway for a couple, family, or group of friends. It's beyond nice to have your horses right there where you can see them, be able to tack up and just ride off directly from the cabin to various trails within the park.
