This is a beautiful peaceful cabin in the woods. My husband is from this area and we came up for his dear mom's funeral. We have a sweet dog so we needed somewhere that would allow for our fur-family. This was a comforting calming place to hang our hats and leash. Thank you to the owners.
It was easy to find, Its private but not as secluded as i was expecting but it was still perfect, The set up is convenient and the bed was really cozy, I just sat at the fire pit til late so i didn't use the TV, The frogs are crazy loud in the pond and the stars at night are Beautiful, Me and my Dog would definitely stay again.
