We had a great girls weekend at this location. Everything you need is provided and then some! We had ample room to cook, gather and sleep. The game room in the garage was a real treat.

This location was perfect for outdoor activities. Close proximity to great adventures. Coming back to the cabin made the adventures that much better as the location was discrete, clean, And very comfortable. Use of the game room was perfect for preparing and recovering of outdoor adventures. Definitely would return to this location. The owner was very attentive and easy to communicate with.

The pictures don’t do justice, it was much better than anticipated. John the owner was very responsive & accommodating. We will 100% return. The game room is a huge bonus especially if you have kids. This place is within walking or biking distance to the pine river. Very secluded.

Ski trip to Caberfae
We absolutely loved this rental! We were coming up for a few days of skiing at Caberfae and the rooms were all booked. It worked out in our favor though because we fell in love with this property. It was less than 15 minutes to Caberfae and was incredibly clean and cozy. The cook shack and game room were amazing additions. We spent our evenings/nights grilling and hanging out playing games and watching football. I plan to recommend this rental to friends and family and hope to be back at some point in the future! The host was wonderful and very easy to communicate with. We had a few questions upon arrival and he was quick to respond. The Dublin General store he recommended was also less than 15 minutes away and had all the groceries we needed along with so much more. We truly have zero complaints and were very happy with our stay!

We had a wonderful stay at the cabin! We came out for our anniversary to just get away from life and relax. We went canoeing on the pine river and it was a perfect weekend with all the trees at peak color change for fall. The cabin was great and the game room amazing! Just what we needed to recharge so thank you! We will certainly be back!

Perfect!!
We had an awesome time! The house is clean and has so many extras - the owners have really put a lot of special touches to make your stay awesome!! Thanks - everything from the extra tp to the zero gravity outdoor chairs for stargazing was greatly appreciated!! FYI - If you are visiting and go at night….GPS gets you most of the way there keep straight and look for the address on a reflective green post to the left just before the bend - make the left n it’s just past the stop sign. Thanks again to the Petersons for sharing their awesome space! Oh and the folks up at the Pine River General store were awesome too!!
