Such an amazing stay! We traveled with our infant, parents and two dogs. The property was very private and had trail heads basically off the back deck for the dogs, they loved it. The place is super well maintained and clean. Would love to visit again when we can stay logner!

Excellent stay

The cabin offered great views and privacy, and yet is close to town. It offered us a very relaxed place to hang out when we were down with our day trips around the area.

Perfect little hideaway

We loved staying here! Our only complaint would be that no bathroom on the “bunk” level means kids coming upstairs at night which can be a little inconvenient but other than that it’s perfection!
