A Stunning and Relaxing Cabin Retreat

I booked this cabin for my sister and I to stay while celebrating my 50th birthday. We both needing some much needed peace and relaxation which is exactly what we got on our short weekend stay. The owners, Larry and Linda were very easy to communicate with giving as much detail and heartwarming welcomeness. From the moment we walking onto the property we were in awe of it’s natural beauty, both on site and within the surrounding area. The cabin is so well built with every amenity needed for a weekend stay. The kitchenette served its purpose well, allowing for the majority of our meals to be cooked rather than eating out. There was plenty of dishes, cookeware and coffee. There was even a beautiful bowl of apples and plenty of bottled water waiting for us. The temperature was comfortable, as was the bedding, towls and water pressure. The wifi worked perfectly as well. My favorite spots were: the front porch to drink my morning coffee and rock to the sound of the birds chirping and bees buzzing. The purple wisteria was so fragrant..and the back enclosed patio which looked out to mature shade trees and running spring. The sound of the water, the relaxing on the lounge chairs was complete zen. We wished we could have stayed longer but alas we had to return to the real world. I hope to make another trip back in the near future. Thank you for your hospitality and kindness!!

Surrounded by natural beauty

The cottage is wonderful! I especially enjoy the back deck. I spent several hours reading while listening to the creek and the birds. Many hummingbirds stopped by the feeder, and I saw some quail as well. There were also deer and wild turkey in the canyon. The sights and sounds are wonderful, and the air is very fresh.

Perfection

We recently stayed at the cabin, and I cannot emphasize how amazing it was. It was meticulously clean, but not so much that you felt like you couldn’t touch anything. The decor was perfect. The outdoor screened in porch is my favorite place, just sitting out there listening to the stream and watching hummingbirds come to the feeder. The front garden was so beautiful and wild yet well-maintained at the same time. We wanted to try the outdoor shower but honestly the indoor shower was so amazing that I never got around to going to the outside one. Having stayed in many vacation rentals, I would say that this was the best. The amenities in the kitchen left us wanting for nothing, truly above and beyond. The king size bed was extremely comfortable and my teenager loved the bunkbed in her room. The owners were the kindest I’ve ever met and checked in on us via text. They also had a sweet little dog that came to visit once. I also enjoyed the site of deer in the late afternoon and early morning. It was also very short drive to Avila and San Luis. There were also a few personal touches specifically for us, but I would not want to ruin the surprise for the next visitors so I will not specify what they were :-). If you are looking to get away from it all, but still be close enough to go out for a coffee or dinner, this is a place for you.

Hidden Gem

Could not ask for a better 1st time hosting experience. Every part of our stay, property and cabin itself exceeded our expectations by far. The owner who were onsite were kind and extremely generous making our stay more memorable. The cabin is right out of a story book, including a stream that runs right behind the screened in back porch. The cabin is spotless and has everything you could possibly need incase you forget to pack something. The bed is so comfortable you will not want to get out of it in the morning. Especially if you have the gas fireplace that faces the bed on. One of my favorite things to do was use the outdoor shower... could not get enough. The location was the cherry on top... everything you could possibly want to do was just a short scenic car ride away... and there is plenty to do. This is a must do if your lucky enough to be reading this....
