About the host

Hosted by Jerome and Rachel Gabriel

Host profile image
For years, we've been using this area to recharge our family, and we're thrilled to provide the same experience to others that attracted us here. During their stay, we make every effort to be available to our guests to ensure they have an excellent time.

Why they chose this property

At the Retreat Cabin, you can enjoy a truly exceptional getaway experience. The serene lake, stunning scenery, and opportunity to disconnect from the hustle and bustle of daily life are just a few of the reasons why we keep returning to this place. One of our favorite things to do is to sit out on the dock and watch the breathtaking sunset (or sunrise if you're an early riser).

What makes this property unique

Our family's main reason for repeatedly returning to the cabin was the absence of cable TV and internet. This allowed us to avoid the distractions of technology and focus on reconnecting with one another. While some may view this as an inconvenience, we saw it as a valuable opportunity that our family truly needed. It's a chance we wanted to extend to others who seek a place to disconnect from technology and instead prioritize reconnecting with loved ones.
