Enjoyed a quiet weekend here in October. We primarily stayed in the cabin reading for the weekend as it was rainy but enjoyed the views and birdwatching from the deck. The location is very private tucked away in the trees. The cabin is rustic on the outside but well appointed inside. Very clean and comfortable for two people. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking and the bathroom is really nice with a large shower.

This tiny house had everything we needed for our two night stay. The full sized bathroom and ability to stand in the loft area make you forget you’re in a tiny house! It was great to be surrounded by forest out of every window and truly be immersed in nature. We would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful view! Cozy house with all the amenities - appreciated the smart TV on a rainy night. The driveway down to the house was a bit rough for a small car, ended up parking at the top after the first night. Inside, everything was very clean and tidy. Good ventilation with the opening windows and air conditioning.

Beautiful Cabin in the woods

This cabin was perfect for us, it’s nestled in the woods in a private spot. The view was lovely from the deck and lots of windows makes it bright inside the cabin. The cabin was made to include everything you may need. Clean and well cared for and really endearing. The host was wonderful, responsive and very informative about local areas to explore. We love this cabin as a jumping off point between adventures. Looking forward to coming back again soon.
