Great location with plenty of space for our group of 6. Located in a beautiful and quiet location but still close to town and all the activities we were looking for. The cabin was clean, check-in and check-out were very easy, and had a nice stay.

This cabin was perfect! It was clean and in a great area for trail riding. The host was very easy to communicate with and was very helpful. The beds are amazing and it was great having a bathroom on each floor. We parked two full sized pickups with trailers in the driveway.

Lots of fun games and activities for the kids to do. The kids loved being able to share the top floor. It was a little warm up there so I would bring a fan. The main floor and basement stayed very cool. It was great for our group. The host was easy to contact. Overall, we’d stay again!
