We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Serenity Falls. The property is so beautiful and peaceful. The cabin had all the accommodations needed to cook and stay. We loved being able to bring our dog with plenty of space for her to explore. It is a beautiful area with lots to do. Our host went above and beyond to communicate and ensure we had what we needed.

Beautiful spot with gourmet amenities in the kitchen...every detail thought out! Overhead fans and a standing fan that was important to this aged woman. Super clean. Lots of fun decor. Every bed was comfy! Technology was excellent! Just cannot say enough about the nature around that house. It is a place that is loved and taken care of.... cheers to the owners for providing us this amazing space.

A literal hidden trail! Tucked into the top plot of a hillside, there rests a cozy hidden cabin slowly gathering moss that covers some covers the small creek beside. Hot tub, hidden meadow, multiple fire places and fog rolling over the hills. We stayed for our anniversary and loved the character of the inside.

I was happy with the property. I was driving a Miata that's very low and didn't have any problems with the road .The location of the property was very convenient , and easy to find . My only issue was that the hot tub was not working. It looked like the water level was too low , maybe if I filled it up It would have worked. I didn't think it was my place to mess with it . Other than that , I'd stay there again .

I am sorry about the hot tub. If you had contacted me, I would have sent someone over to put water in it.

Loved the old charm of the cabin, check in was a breeze, it could have been a little cleaner. The cabin was a little dusty, the refrigerator freezer was very dirty, and the down stairs bathroom toilet was dirty as someone had used it. Other than that it was a nice place.

I did not get a message or a phone call with any issues during your stay. I was in the cabin right before your stay and the cabin wasn't dusty or dirty.
