Cabin is log and knotty pine inside . This cabin was built by my father in 2003 as his retirement home .

Fantastic stay once again!

Second visit to this property, and once again, it was exactly what we were looking for! Quiet, secluded, and easy access to biking trails and hiking spots. Perfect location to branch out into Ames, Boone, Perry and other small towns nearby. Cabin was perfect, just like our first visit, and Heather is a fabulous host. Checking was super easy, and communications were timely. Looking forward to another trip back in the future!

Beautiful Quiet Getaway

A beautiful, quiet getaway in a very scenic area. We went to just getaway and the area looked beautiful, and it was! The cabin was really clean with all the amenities. My husband was hoping to fish but the weather did not cooperate. So, cabin for NCAA Basketball it was! Clean, great amenities, and our dog loved it. Thanks for a great stay!!

Peaceful and Pleasant

Really enjoyed our time atbthe cabin. Very close to fishing spots and not far from town. As an avid outdoorsman i really enjoyed the decor. The King bed was a very comfortable sleep number. There was plenty of cooking ware and condiments. We slept late on our check out and host was very accommodating and reaponded quickly.Look forward to comeing back
