Lovely cabin with everything you need. Close enough to stores, restaurants, and attractions but far enough to be peaceful. Host was everything you could ask for. Very clean and comfortable. Enjoyed our stay very much.

This is the second time I've stayed here with a group of my girlfriends. We hike all day and have campfires at night. Setting is beautiful and quiet. The cabin is cozy and clean. We can't wait to stay here again.

We were passing through the area on our way to NY - this place was a perfect stop! We spent a few hours on the Falls trail less than 10 mins away and then had a yummy dinner at the Ricketts Glen Hotel. This place was clean, comfy, and a great place to rest after hiking! Thank you for the hospitality!

Very quaint, woody Cabin, with standard amenities. Price point appealing. Very Clean, Deck on the back, Park-style grill and fire pit with seating for up to 6 people. Laundry on site. Large kitchen table with seating for large family, lots of cooking bits and utensils. 3 Bedrooms for larger families. Close to Rickett's Glen Park and hiking/lake. Great local ice cream Shop 2 minutes away with generous portions for the price. No light pollution, can see Milky Way at night, a rare sight for myself. Would book again for an extended weekend.

Jessica responded to questions quickly and accurately. The cabin was in very good condition and looked like the pictures online. Recommend at least one more chair in the living area. With 6 people staying in the cabin, there was only seating for 4. We moved stools from the kitchen table to accommodate. The checkout time was confusing as there were several listed between the VRBO website, binder in the cabin and notes on the wall in the cabin. Recommend consolidating all to one specific checkout time. Mark

Perfect for our family of four. The size is wonderful, everything supplied for us, and clean. The space is well decorated and the property is beautiful. Landscaped well. I love seeing Beaver Pond through the tree from the porch (loved the rocking chair to read in outside too). Highly recommend for others.

The property was exactly as listed. As we enjoyed all of the surrounding activities, we only unilized the property for sleeping. However, the property had everything we would have required. Very clean. The property owner was quick to respond when we had a few pre-checkin questions. Would stay again.

I see you rated us a 6/10. It would be helpful if you could let me know what to improve on - as I can’t determine that from your review. From communication and the review it looks as though you had a great time! We hope that is the case and the 3* was an accident.
