Relaxing venue, everything you need

Cabin was clean and had everything we could need for a relaxing stay. The property was beautiful and the land was so quiet and peaceful. Joy (owner) put in a lot of little touches that show she has heart for hospitality and ease. Would definitely recommend the property as a getaway for a couple.

The log cabin was so charming and comfortable! The hostess has thought of everything to make the stay so enjoyable, including providing wood and s’more kit for the fire pit!

Wonderful Host

My plans got changed and Joy was wonderful in helping me adjust things last min and responds very quickly! I am an Amish driver and needed to be able to check out a little later and she graciously allowed me the time I needed. Will definitely stay again if I am in the area.

Fun music jam at friend’s home.

Excellent….Joy is definitely the “hostess with the mostest” as far as we’re concerned. Only reason for the 4 star is that we chose this rural location because it was 3 miles from our friends’ home hosting the jam. Be sure to ck out location for yourselves…these roads are twisty and narrow after dark!! Good for us.

Great little place

This was a very quite peaceful time. This cabin was right in the middle of a beautiful property that also served as a wedding venue. Lots of gorgeous twinkling lights all around. The hosts and the cabin could not have been nicer! She had thought to included everything that we could possibly need. Huge fluffy towels that smelled fantastic to fluffy throws to cover up with while sitting on the wonderfully huge porch. Even the friendly family dog smelled wonderful.
