A quiet, restful retreat

We really enjoyed our stay at Hilltop. Between the view of the water, trees all around, and a family of deer that we spotted on the first night, it was the perfect remedy to a stressful move. The inside of the cabin is really cozy and had everything that we needed including good wifi, a fridge, stove and toaster oven. There's also a wood-burning stove that you need express permission and instructions to use so we didn't get around to using it but it really added to the charm of the property. The only negative for us was the limited water heater; we had to take short, on-and-off showers so as not to blow right through its five-gallon tank, lest the next person need to wait an hour.

Perfect Getaway

My Dad and I came here to relax and fish. It was the perfect place to do that. The owners were wonderful and went out of their way to make us comfortable. Would stay here again in a second!

Fantastic week!

We came to this lovely cabin for a week long "working" getaway. What a wonderful place, quiet, beautiful, peaceful and rejuvenating! Perfect for what we were looking for! Everything you need for a getaway. Perfect hosts, wonderful surroundings and many things to do and see around town or even just sitting in on the front porch doing nothing. Really enjoyed our stay!
