I grew up going to the property down the road from ours. But, I knew this cabin well from spending hours on the tire swing flying out of the creek. Sadly that tire swing is no longer. But, when the chance came up for us to buy this cabin, we made an offer the minute it hit. It's been one of the best things we've ever done. We're just hoping to share the magic that this place holds with others.
Back in the early 1900s there was a train that ran along the other side of the creek from our cabin (you can still see the road, but the rails were removed long ago). The train would stop just a little further down the creek. People would wear their Sunday best and come here for the day to escape the city and have a picnic. Just down from us is the original ice scream shop, still standing, but owned by someone else, now. It was referred to as Paradise back then, the main road that the cabin sits off of is Paradise Rd. So, we thought there was no better name for the cabin.
