Glad to hear you enjoyed the cabin. The land you're referring to is not owned by us and is on the other side of the creek. This land was previously obscured by trees and vegetation which was destroyed last year during the hurricane. We hope to have a solution soon. We do have four additional cabins onsite with wooded views. We hope to have you stay with us again in one of them.
