Perfect!
The owner responded quickly when i reached out, he gave all information i could hope for. The cabin was beautiful and stocked way better then i anticipated even down to DVD selections which was amazing! The hot tub was perfect. the location was isolated which is what i was looking for yet close to the beautiful hiking trails nearby. It was everything i was looking for amd worth every penny!

Wonderful getaway for my husband and I’s 19th anniversary. Very secluded. We hardly heard maybe 10 cars go down the road the entire time (3 days)And even they were at a distance. Bed was comfy and a queen. I was worried because the pictures looked like a full bed. Plan to come back again.

Very secluded
My boyfriend and I enjoyed our stay here. We enjoyed how secluded it was and the little walking trail. The hot tub was wonderful. Towels should be better and there should be more. Theres enough towels for one night but more is needed for a stay any longer than a night. Grill needs replaced and the cleaning could gave been better. I would stay here again.

It was a beautiful little one room cabin. Very quaint. It was awesomely clean. Bed was comfortable. Direct Tv was available. We saw deer in the yard the first morning and turkeys the next morning adding to the charm of the place! We enjoyed the peace and quit as it was back off the road in the woods! Very enjoyable!

WOW Just WOW
The pictures on the website don’t do this cabin justice! It’s absolutely stunning and perfectly secluded, offering a peaceful retreat. We spent our time relaxing and soaking in the beauty of the surroundings, only venturing into town once for supplies. The cabin itself is quaint and charming, and it was spotless and very comfortable. It truly was the perfect getaway, and I can’t wait to book another week here soon!

Cute cabin on beautiful property. Listing says no WiFi but there’s no cell service/internet. This is fine if you’re aware of it. It does make contacting owner difficult. No paper towels or soap although we were told later where they were stored. No instructions for check out.

Overnight stay
Beautiful cabin. But owner could do better. No paper towels. No trash bags for the trash we were required to take out and the dumpster was at the road not at the cabin. Bluetooth speaker would've been nice since there's no WiFi. Bath towels were awful. Like bottom tier super small and not great. No soap or anything. Lighter for tiki torch did not work. We made it work. Hot tub was great. Bed comfortable. Great location. Amenities not so much. Expensive for what we got

Secluded and private but needs some work
The property was very secluded and private which was wonderful and the main reason we picked this cabin. The outdoor hot tub was really nice. There were a few cleanliness issues, dirt and fur in the corners, ripped up living room rug corners, broken end table leg, ants in the kitchen and bathroom, broken end table lamps. Nothing major that made us not want to stay, just things noticed. The next day a wasp had somehow gotten in and promptly stung my wife at breakfast right in her face. We used the supplied wasp spray and killed it. There were lots of wood boring bees eating the edges of the porch and a wasps nest in the electrical box right near the stairs at the property. The picnic table was a disaster and did not seem safe to sit on, it was literally falling apart as were the supplied chairs- the seat of one was completely cracked. Thankfully we used our own chairs we had brought. The bed was not very comfortable, it didn't seem to have a real mattress just a foam mattress which was not at all breathable. The kitchen had everything we needed and the T.V. was awesome. The shower was very tight and the only two mirrors in the cabin were very very small, and only showed your face not you full body. Small changes would really help spruce this cabin right up. Not trying to pick the cabin apart just sharing about our stay. We would love to come back again sometime.

Fantastic Place!!!
To start to say this place was great is an understatement! Was the perfect place for my wife and I’s first wedding anniversary. Check in and check out were very simple. The evenings and mornings were relaxing as could be with the location being very secluded. Cabin was very very clean and comfy all the way around. We look forward to making this a tradition and going back every year. I seen some negative comments leading up to our stay which is generally just a year say. To say those comments were the furthest from the truth would be an understatement!! If your looking for that perfect cabin tucked back in the woods experience. This is the place to be!
