This property was absolutely perfect for our need. Everything was as described and there were zero issues. The host even had some water, snacks, and other goodies available on arrival. 10/10 would book again.This rental went smooth with zero issues. We loved the firepit on the back patio and the grain bin bar area as well. We also used the onsite smoker to cook a few meals and the game room for shooting some pool and playing the arcade machine. We brought a speaker to play music on but the game room had a much better speaker. :)

Fun cabin in the woods

Everyone in our family from 8 yrs old to 48 loved this place. We fished, played pool, foosball, board games, and marveled at the night sky full of stars. Beds were comfy & kitchen had everything we needed. Loved all the fold out sofa options.

December Cabin Stay

This property was absolutely awesome. Cabin was tastefully decorated for Christmas. This made our stay that much better. Would highly recommend this location for people who don't mind a short gravel road. We have family close by and will reserve this property again.

Sales Trip

The property was wonderful being surrounded by woods and tons of deer. Best back yard I have stayed at. Something different to do vs renting hotel rooms

Family get together

This property was perfect for all ages. Plenty to do for the teens and a nice quiet atmosphere for the older ones to sit and visit. We spent the majority of our time outside enjoying nature. We will definitely come back.

Great Family Getaway!

We (2 sets of grandparents, 1 set of parents, 13 & 9 year old) had a fantastic 3 day weekend at the cabin. Property owner was easy to deal with. Everything was very clean. The common spaces (both indoor and out) were even better than expected. Other than a quick trip out for ice cream, we just enjoyed the comfortable and spacious surroundings to play games and relax. Everything was very well stocked-plenty of consumables such as TP/paper towels/soap that some rentals provide only small starter amounts of and lots of fun adds like a cornhole set and specialty drinkware. Minor recommendations for the owners... The kitchen was generally well stocked with dishes/utensils but a true skillet would be a nice add, as well as a plastic spatula. We also had plenty of bath towels, but could have used more handtowels. Minor warning to potential renters... There is plenty of space for sleeping if your party is flexible-including lots of extra bedding as well as comfortable extra mattresses and pullouts. That said, if you have specific plans/people that require a bedroom with a door that shuts, be aware that the second actual bedroom is very small and 3 of the 4 sides of the bed touch a wall. This was not workable for the older couples in our party because they get up frequently during the night and aren't mobile enough to continuously crawl across one another. This was the only issue of something being less than we expected, but was fine with the other available options.
