What a lovely property! Really enjoyed our week-long stay. The cabin is a perfect blend of historic with modern amenities. It came with everything you need except the food! Tim and Lynn were just lovely and we enjoyed meeting them. The kids enjoyed seeing the horses. The property is spacious and beautiful. We would definitely come back for another stay!

We had the best time in this cozy welcoming cabin for our family to spend Thanksgiving together. Lynn and Tim are great hosts and went above and beyond to take care of our family. Everything was beautiful and very well stocked and equipped -we didn’t need anything! Our grandsons loved the bunk beds and the swings and Lynn even called out their horses so the boys could feed them some carrots! Thanks so much for a perfect stay!

Log House Stay

Our family really enjoyed staying in this unique log house property. Lots of history with all the creature comforts of modern times. The kids loved the cowboy themed bunk room filled with fun toys. The location was great for exploring nature and yet still close to lots of restaurants and museums in town.
