The cabin is absolutely beautiful; it's very spacious. The views are spectacular. It's one of the most well equipped stays I've had.

Beautiful!

I've stayed at this cabin several times. I walked into the cabin and the room was flooded with gold -- from a grove of Sasafras trees off the deck, the leaves were bright yellow. Like magic!

Beauty

This cabin and its location are beautiful. When I get out of the car, I'm struck with silence. No noise, just the sound of falling leaves. And the smell of the woods.
