Warm cabin in the big woods

Cute cozy spot surrounded by trees. Very close to several trail heads, and a short drive to a grocery store in Crescent City. Easy check in instructions.

Wonderful stay

We are doing a long road trip from Seattle to Arizona. We arrived at this adorable cabin at 1am! I was so thankful to arrive and see a beautiful clean cabin where we didn’t have to do anything but curl up and go to bed. We will be staying here again on our way home!

The Best Get Away Cabin

Quiet, simple and amazing. We felt safe and secure while we stayed at the cabin. My Mom-in-law wanted to stay, but we convinced her to get in the car ♡. No TV for 3 days was the best! Thank you!

A real cabin in the redwoods

If you are like us and want to cook your meals, this is not the place for you. It was really the only drawback for us. Other than that, It was a great location near a lot of hiking. Definitely a quiet location. You really felt you were among the redwoods.

This cabin is set in the most beautiful setting, this was a bucket list vacation and it will always be remembered due to the cabin stay and the beauty of the redwoods and Crescent city. The only thing i have to say regarding the cabin is that if you are staying more then 1 day and need cupboard space well there is no cub

Beautiful and convenient location

The cabin is nice and in a perfect spot. It is not too far from Cresent city or the hiking trails. The cabin was very clean and perfect for two people. My only complaint is there was not pot or skillet. We had to go buy our own skillet so we could make eggs for breakfast. Over all it is a perfect little cabin.

A little bit of Heaven

We arrived in town shortly after check-in (3:00 p.m.) The property is exactly as shown. Adorable little place and very clean. Looks like owner is expanding and building more units. Total peace and quiet. No TV, no internet, a perfect getaway with no distractions. Will definitely stay here again

lovely cabin in the woods

The cabin was very clean and nice. We enjoyed our visit. It was a little hard to find but that was probably because it was dark when we got there. Since it did not have a TV it would have been nice to have a deck of cards or some board games. Maybe you could have the TVs installed with DVD players since you are waiting for cable to make it into the property. The bed was very comfortable but it was super high and hard to get into. It would have been nice to have a mirror either in the living area or the bedroom so someone could be getting ready with hair etc while another person was in the bathroom. All and All this place was GREAT. We will be back again!

So serene and peaceful

This place is SO NICE! It was so peaceful and beautiful. The owners have really taken the time to make the place a great home away from home. It is nicely stocked. My husband used all his coffee at the prior home we were at so he was very happy there was coffee supplied “Bless this man”. There was a nice picnic bench outside. The windows are so clean that I thought they were open. The bedding was top notch. I was prepared for no tv or Wi-Fi so I brought a projector and dvd’s. Place does not show up on the maps as he said but was raspier found by using VRBO’s location directions. We have two (one in training) service dogs with us. It was easy for us to walk them on the loop. That is huge for me with my handicap. The greenery and ferns gave you a lot of privacy from the other cabins. I would give it 10 stars if I could. Cons: a spatula would be nice.

Wish we could have stayed longer! Booked this little gem for a 1-night stay during our adventures of driving the California to Oregon Coast. The details for the layout and fitting all the amenities into this small cabin were well thought out! We would 100% recommend and stay again if we are in the area.

Small but Nice

Good. Very nice bed. Only negative is it seemed small for my family, and could have used more seating (couch and 2 kitchen chairs was all) though there was not enough room for more.
