Great place, absolutely beautiful inside and out! Everything you need is there and the host very friendly and eager to help! Walk to the state park, enjoy the deer that come up to the cabin every night and morning to eat! No need to eat out they have a great bar-b-Que spot! Expections definitely exceeded with this jewel!

Family Easter

The place is clean and within walking distance of family members property where we were celebrating Easter. This is the perfect little cabin and we will be returning for future stays for family events. Pete was quick to respond with any questions.

Rural yet quaint

Very clean and updated. Couple of points to note:1) uncomfortable sofa which was too small for the room and for sitting2) bed pillows - sleeping pillow options would be appreciated3) lighting is way too bright - dimmers will helpLocation and neighborhood were disappointing as we were traveling to Round Top for the Annual Market Event.
