Perfect Fall Getaway
We had a wonderful time with our 2 granddaughters 6 and 2 yrs old. There was plenty to do right in the area and the cabin had lots of room for arts and crafts and games.

Great stay
Our family of 5 stayed at this cabin during a family reunion in the area. Not only is it very conveniently located to area attractions, but it was perfect for our family's needs. Everything was very clean and equipped beyond our expectations, communication with the owners regarding check in, etc. was very clear and prompt, and they really thought through what would make a stay comfortable. We would definitely stay here again.

Private cabin with everything needed
I took a chance renting this cabin without any reviews because we were their first ever guests. I was very pleased. It was clean and cozy and thoughtfully stocked with all the basics we needed. There were plenty of towels and basic shower soaps. I loved that the shower stayed warm through the 6 of us taking showers in a line!
The kitchen had everything we needed to cook including oil spray, salt and pepper. The bathroom and kitchen seemed newly remodeled. We liked the hardwood floors throughout. The beds had nice linens and were comfortable enough for cabin beds.
I particularly enjoyed the back porch. Beautiful view. The cabin is situated privately off of the road with no neighbors in view. It was quiet. I liked sitting on the bench and watching the hummingbirds come to the feeder. There was a grill but we didn't use it. Also there was a lovely picnic table set up and an extra folded away that would have nicely accommodated company. Nice private woods and a narrow flat side yard in the back that would have been nice for bocce, badminton, frisbee or other yard game.
The cabin is set back from the road. It has a vertical green sign with the house number but nothing else special so look carefully! And if you go out at night, leave the porch light on so you can spot it easier!
The owner was very responsive and kind. I would rent again. Thank you for sharing your place!
