Great get away

Peaceful secluded location. A front porch to watch the stars at night and enjoy a cup of coffee while watching the sunrise in the morning!

Nordic Fest weekend

The property lists as having air conditioning with the air conditioning was not adequate for cooling the space during the 90° temperatures of late July. The air really did not reach the bedrooms . Ceiling fans are helpful but ,again, did not help in the bedroom. Perhaps you could consider some sort of small fans in there to help with the circulation for summer. Found The cabin it was very comfortable and otherwise we'll equipped. I loved the setting surrounding the property.

Girls weekend

We absolutely loved this quaint cabin feel. Saw lots of wildlife and enjoyed the sounds of the creek while sitting on the front porch. Would stay again.

Quiet getaway

We had a wonderful stay! The cabin was decorated beautifully, rooms and beds were comfortable, and the land it sits on is the real attraction. We couldn't get down into the spring next to the property but spent so much time outside on the porch (which we loved!) and in the yard watching birds, deer, and rabbits. It was so peaceful.
