My grandkids and had a blast fishing having a campfire and laying on the dock looking at the stars. Loved sleeping overnight in a beautiful log cabin instead of a tent. We all said we wished we lived there!

Very secluded.

This is an absolutely beautiful property! Extremely secluded, stunning views, beautiful and huge pond. Borders a state forest, with a creek. We even heard the coyotes in the hills late at night. Kitchen is fully stocked. We had a wonderful time!

Absolutely wonderful getaway!

The Country Cabin was exactly what we were looking for. My kids and I had a great time. The swing set and horse shoes were a lot of fun. We fished, played and swam in the pond all day. Both of my kids caught their first fish! Great memories. I highly recommend this place if your looking for something truly out of the way (no neighbors in sight!) with a lot of peace and quiet.

Property layout is nice. The pond is nice but would be better if kayak /canoe was provided.A more accessible driveway to turn around as it was pretty tight. ( no parking or driving on the grass)Maybe a light and a much bigger sign in order to locate the property easier. It was kind of overgrown. Property owners were very responsive which was great. Very easy to deal with and understanding

Cozy Country Cabin

I am originally from the area and wanted to “go home” for a few days. The cabin was clean and had plenty of dishes, kitchen utensils, towels, linens, etc. for my family’s 5 night stay. I loved drinking my morning coffee on the front porch and watching the birds and deer in the yard. My husband and daughter had a blast fishing the pond, catch and release of course. We felt just at home and will absolutely rent this cabin again. The owners responded quickly to any questions I had but also gave us our space as well. Truly a wonderful stay in a very beautiful area of the country! Thank you for having us.

Quaint Cabin

We were in town for a quick overnight for our daughter's horse show at Alfred State. The cabin was clean and cozy and met our needs for the night. I'm sure the porch is a beautiful spot to sit in warmer weather. I must have missed that you need to bring your own toilet paper as there was only a half a roll that with 5 people didn't last our entire stay but other than that it was perfect.

Our Stay at the Cabin

It was very nice and we enjoyed the country setting. One recommendation, the owner needs to file down the strike plate on the front door so that the door stays closed. Thank you

Excellent getaway from the noise. It is a log house and decorated that way.

2nd time there, It is fairly remote / private if that's what you're looking for. We love it. Just like the pictures. we'd come again.

Amazing!!

I had rented out the cabin with my fiance for a few days for Valentine’s Day and she absolutely loved it! We both did! It was kind of tricky finding the driveway but the owners came to save the day in seconds!! The scenery is beautiful, quiet and peaceful! We’ll definitely be booking again, thank you so much!!
