Small quiet and cabin in the woods! Loved that it was not in a campground or by one. We had a relaxing time. It was clean. Bring your own lawn chairs a shovel to clean up after your dog and towels.

Overall, very clean. Shelves and windows need dusting. Great yard and fire pit. Convenient kitchen and appliances. Great TV with surround sound. Neighbors next door very loud on Saturday and Sunday. Otherwise, restful and relaxing. This was my second stay. Would return on a non-holiday weekend.

Cute & Private Getaway

Perfect little spot to spend a mountain biking and hiking weekend. The dogs loved the yard to run and play. Left for walks from the front door and had little to no traffic. Big M is 20 minutes away to ride the trails. Weather was perfect to spend most of our time outside. Cabin is super cute and cozy. We will definitely be back.

Great, cozy cabin with straight access to towering woods and short walk to river nearby.

Has everything you’ll need: plenty of cooking gear, DVDs, linens, fire pit, and woodsy charm. David was a very accommodating owner who is always reachable and quick to respond to questions or fix anything that may seem wrong (like promptly coming over to light a heater pilot light).

Not what I expected

This was more of a hunting cabin. Nothing was very clean, beds and couches were broken down. The cabinets, endtables, silverware were sticky, ceilings were dusty, floors were dusty and sandy. We washed the dishes beforehand. It was obvious that it had not been cleaned in forever. Even though they posted that we were to leave 30.00 on the table for extra cleaning..for the dog? We cleaned up after him as well. We could only tolerate 3 nights of our 5 night stay.

Should not be on the market for rent

I gagged as soon as I entered the cabin the smell dead mice/ feces was prevalent in the kitchen masked by a heavy air freshener fragrance It should be more of a vetting process before these properties go for rent this property should not be up on the market for rent
