What a serene place to stay. So dang cute with all the fairy lights and the backlit bear. We had such restful sleep and the kitchen had more than enough supplies. So fun to sit on the deck and watch the stars and even the eclipse last night.

What a beautiful, cozy cabin! Although not too far from civilization, it feels very secluded and private, and just down the road from a state park. The cabin itself was impeccably maintained and just a beautiful spot with little touches like a fire pit, string lights, and hammock. Highly recommend!

A forest oasis! Private , charming and a very walkable property near lots of trails and Penrose Park. We had cousins who all lived nearby so we were able to comfortably visit (5 of us) a couple of time. We will definitely return!

we loved this spot! the only thing i would say is the picture from penrose park of the hammock and water had us a little confused because we thought the cabin itself was on the water - but the spot itself is adorable and delightful!
