    We had such a great time. Did nothing but relax, unwind, and enjoy the beautiful woods. The owner (George) is one of the nicest people you could ever want to meet. We will definitely go back for our 3rd trip there this year! ❤️

    My wife and I hadn’t had a vacation in over 5 years together so we booked this beautiful cabin, paid for it ahead of time, and booked it well in advance. The instructions were that the homeowner would give us the door code the day of check in. We drove 11 hours from home and hadn’t heard from the homeowner so we decided to call. They had no idea we had even booked our stay and already had guests checked in. In their defense, they did offer to let us stay in their personal home on the property to make up for the mistake, however this was a romantic vacation to ourselves. The only remedy that was offered to us was to cancel our reservation and refund our money, with us stranded 11 hours away from home. This was New Years weekend so there was NOTHING else available besides motels and hotels. The homeowners were very sweet in offering us the first floor of their personal home but this is 2022, double bookings should not happen and rather than trying to make it right, they simply cancelled our reservation and refunded our money.

    My husband and I stayed in this cabin on our honeymoon. The hosts were more than generous with their time and property. The cabin looked brand new on the inside and was perfectly cozy for a party of 2!

    Beautiful little cabin tucked away at the back of a well manicured horse ranch with a lovely entrance with well lit roads, a large deck overlooking a pretty river and acres of mountain paths to explore. So much to do in the area that you don’t have time to do everything! Lovely people own this place and will make your stay quite enjoyable!

    Super clean cabin. This has been the cleanest cabin we've stayed at. It was the perfect size. Bed was very comfy. This cabin has everything you need. Hosts were very communicative and making sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Time was just too short.
