This cabin is so serene. Perfect spot to get away from it all, yet just 15-20 minutes to Ponca and all the outdoor activities. Nice fire pit with wood provided. Enclosed game room with darts and kids games. We will be back

Absolutely perfect!

I think this is our favorite place we have ever stayed! Everything was absolutely perfect. My husband and I said we could live here. Perfect amount of room. Anything we could need was provided. We loved roasting marshmallows at the fire pit and not having to go find firewood to buy first. We don’t build tons of fires, so just a little was enough. I brought my own coffee, but it was nice of the owner to have some there in case I had forgot. Having wifi was a blessing with three kids. Waking up to the view from the back bedroom window in the morning was wonderful. My daughter was delighted by the cows nearby. Everything was great. The owners were so friendly when we had to message them. Check in was a breeze. We definitely hope to stay again when we come for our fall trip. Definitely worth it.
