The cabin was a beautiful getaway for my family. It is a short distance to several state parks with waterfalls. If you need a place to stay where it’s peaceful and quiet, this is the place for you.

The cabin was nicely presented and equipped with everything we needed. We loved the isolated feeling, although it was only a short drive to the nearest village and shop. Contacting the owner to obtain access when we arrived was a little difficult because cell reception is poor there (the WiFi is excellent however).
Our stay was just heavenly!! So peaceful!! I didn’t want to leave the porch!! The cabin had everything we needed and was so incredibly clean!! Even though it was tucked back in the woods, we didn’t even see one bug inside!! Can’t wait until our next stay!
If you are looking for a secluded getaway but still close to the nearest attractions this is the place. We had a wonderful stay. The host is attentive to all your needs. The cabin has everything you need.
Thank you so much for sharing your cabin! Location was great to all the hiking near by! We enjoyed doing s’mores by the fire!! House was great and host is very quick to respond :) would definitely recommend this place!
Property was absolutely amazing. Perfect little get away. Tucked away from the hustle and bustle but yet just a short drive to life. Really is An amazing little slice of heaven

Thank you for staying in our little slice of heaven. We hope to see you again soon.
The location of this cabin is wonderful - very private and quiet but close to lots of parks, other things to do, and places to get anything you need. Ron responded quickly to calls and was great about answering questions and helping in any way he could.

Thank you for staying with us. Very good guests.. Hope to see you again
It was a great place to stay and close to state parks. ( Watkins Glen, Buttermilk Falls, Robert Treman, and Taughannock. It had most main essentials for basic cooking, but only gave us 2 washcloths for family of 5. Nice grill and firepit to enjoy. Very clean and good communication from the hosts. Very pretty secluded area but only 20 minutes away from a town with a store or restaurant.
Quiet, beautiful log cabin equipped with everything for a wonderful relaxing stay. Plan ahead for meals as the location is really remote. We loved it and the peacefulness of the area. Enjoy!
It's very quietly located, but close to all locations we were visiting. The cabin is clean and pleasant. It can use better kitchen supplies including pots, pans and knives for people who need to cook. The pond is a walk, and could be missed if you don't walk all the way in the trail. Overall, we loved our stay.
We wanted to visit Watkins Glen and Ithica for a weekend getaway, and this cabin was perfectly located between them! Everything was clean, well-maintained, and lovely. It even had everything needed to make our own meals and our morning coffee. The wifi is a lifesaver if you need to stay on the grid as well. We loved it!
We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful cabin surrounded by nature. The peaceful setting and lack of cell phone signal made it perfect. We especially loved sipping coffee on the deck while taking in the forest views, and the outdoor firepit was a great touch. Thank you for the thoughtful gift of wine!Just a heads-up to future guests: the cabin is quite remote, so be sure to bring everything you might need and save the directions ahead of time—there's no cell service in the area. It would also be helpful if the kitchen were a bit more stocked with basic essentials.
Awesome experience all the way around from booking to checking in, staying and checking out. Super affordable and exactly as advertised with a fully equipped cabin, all appliances, cookware, utensils, washer/dryer, etc. Super clean and dead quiet nature view. Wonderful trip all the way from Ohio. We will def stay here again soon, probably in the fall. Outstanding job to Ron and his wife on the property management and facilitating a fantastic stay!
This quaint little cabin exceeded our expectations. Perfect location, secluded, well stocked, clean. Host was very good with communication. Check-in process was easy. Personalized welcome gift was such an unexpected but appreciated touch. Thank you!
