The host was very friendly and made the check-in process so easy. The cabin was clean, well maintained, and very cozy. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay there again. Thanks for everything Bernice!
Super clean and cozy cabin with everything you need for cooking, baking, sleeping and bathing. Lots of beautiful land to explore, animals to visit ( horses, chickens, cats). The owners are great hosts and made sure the cabin has eveything needed to make your stay comfy and cozy. We loved the jetted tub, the size of the lofted bedroom and the huge assortment of books, indoor and outdoor games to keep us entertained in the evenings. Nice, large BBQ and fire pit area as well!

Please come again
Fantastic cabin situated on attractive farm property. Wonderful host and friendly animals. Enough in the local area for a decent amount of exploring, even more if you're into geomorphology.

Thank you for looking after the cabin so well !!!
We stayed for 6 days in this beautiful house. We immediately felt at home thanks to Bernice and Bernie. So nice to sit on the veranda and watch the beautiful surroundings supported by Tigger & Captain. The tour with Bernie in the side by side was one of the highlights for me. Thank you for hosting us. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a place to stay in this area!Hilda, Elise, Hillian & Marcia from The Netherlands
