This place was very quiet, secluded and full of wildlife. Watched deer, turkey and a hawk from the front window while sitting in the living room. It was a nice place to unplug. Strap the garbage can lid down because there is a raccoon that loves to dump it
Cabin is super cute - beautiful paneling, hot tub on deck, upgraded appliances, spa-quality towels. Bed was clean & comfortable. The road to the cabin is rustic, but it is lined with amazing granite formations. Owner has decorated with his original artwork. Owner is also very nice to deal with and prompt on communications.
We had a great long weekend at the cabin and enjoyed it very much. The cabin was perfect for my husband and I and had everything we needed. The hot tub was perfect and the bed slept just fine. Larry was an amazing host who even called me ahead of the trip to make sure I had directions just in case we lost cell service. Also, he is a very talented artist and had many of his original works hanging in the cabin. My only complaint is I didn’t have 2 cash on me as he had some of his prints for sale and I would have loved to have brought one home with me. Overall we loved the cabin and even talked about coming back in the cooler months.
Just had the most wonderful getaway at a cozy cabin! With ample space for two, a relaxing hot tub, and a peaceful, private setting, it was the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle. We can’t wait to return for another rejuvenating stay!
Location was great. Cabin was clean. Very peaceful. The bed was a little uncomfortable (firmness). A couple of lamp sockets were broken. Outside could use a little TLC. Workers began cutting limbs at 6:00 am our last morning there, making it difficult to sleep in a bit. Overall, a pleasant and peaceful little hideout in the woods.
A very nice and clean cabin. Really enjoyed the hot tub and the location. My wife and I really enjoyed our visit.we would like to come back again sometime.
We stayed here for our 35th anniversary. Cabin was so cozy. Bed was nice. Very quiet neighborhood. Everything was perfect. The listing said there was a cafe that was a 3 minute walk, but it must have been referring to from the center of town. The cabin wasn’t within walking distance of anything, which was fine. Mentone was a short beautiful drive.
This host is OUTSTANDING ‼He personally called me to make sure that I could get to the place without a GPS , then he told me that I was welcome to get in two hours earlier than check in time . This place is very isolated and private , yet there are other properties around it . It's very nice and clean . I never seen a kitchen so overstocked with anything that you think that you can need . The hot tub is hot and jetty , the bed is very comfortable, the windows up front are large bd clean making for a beautiful view of the wilderness. Even in brutal heat , the AC unit can make it Christmas inside . For me , a city guy , the surrounding properties made it very comfortable to hang outside all night . Oh , and the host didn't treat me like a squatter reminding me every three hours of check out time ..he has a bunch of good channels on the television. We had a Wang Dang Doodle and will Definitely return once it cools down
Thoroughly enjoyed the stay and will probably book again. Only had very small issues, the mattress was a little rough and the ignition for the grill didn’t work but other than that it was amazing.
