Why they chose this property
We have worked really hard to make The Forest House nice, clean, fun and most of all affordable. Folks tell us that we should be charging more—but, quite frankly, we are tired of being priced out of vacation homes ourselves. In return, we ask folks to take care of the place and help keep the magic alive. Have a great stay. The Forest House @ Lake Warren Estates
What makes this property unique
This is a "cabin" only by name. This is a luxury log home with granite countertops. The best of the best. Heat, AC, Internet, etc. with all the creature comforts of home.
