New experience
Property was very nice a little hairy going between the trees with a large vehicle. No handicap access. Cabin contains most of what’s needed. Some luxuries were missing as such as a table and chairs. Bring your own blankets none are furnished. Located close to town. Had a little problem with Vrbo sending us the incorrect house key numbers but we got to talk to the manager Matthew and he’s very helpful and understanding. We enjoyed our stay and the fall foliage was beautiful. Stayed three days.

Peace of GOD
I can not express how overjoyed I was with the Cabin and it's location. So peaceful and I loved the cows that came to feed while I sat at the picnic table and read aloud from the Bible during my Devotions and Worship time with GOD.
Thank You

Great weekend getaway with my wife!
My wife and I had a great weekend getaway at the cabin! It is in a spectacularly beautiful location which is both rustic and yet has modern amenities. It was great for us who are not traditional campers, yet we still had the feeling we were in the great outdoors. It is also close two small towns which had wonderful restaurants and shops. We would definitely come back and I highly recommend it to anyone, especially couples, looking for that unique weekend experience.
