This cabin is an absolute gem! The pictures are great but it was better in person. Very private and beautiful with fantastic scenery. We only left once to go to the store and that wasn’t too far either. I would definitely recommend and visit again. Thank you for providing a memorable experience.

Terrific

My group and I had a heavenly stay here. It was private, scenic, rustic, spacious.. so many wonderful things wrapped up in one that made this trip a marvelous experience. We were glued to the place, switching between chilling inside and taking in the scenery outside. Definitely would stay here again!

Redding/Duble gang

We arrived on Thursday. Departed Tuesday morning. Everything was just as nice as last year. This place offers such a reset for the stressed and over worked. Even had a chance to catch a HUGE catfish at the pond. Kids had a blast. We did release all fish back. The kids really enjoyed it. The adults enjoyed watching the kids be kids!! Super great. The hosts are very helpful. Would recommend to all.

What a great time!

We stayed here with our church youth group while on a service trip. It was perfect for us. The youth and chaperones all agreed that it was a neat addition to our adventure. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating for our stay. Hoping this works out as an anual trip!

At the edge of the woods

The stay was all that we hoped, very comfortable place, large enough for our family of 10 and provided views and walks along the property to keep us occupied when not resting and spending time in the house.
