We had so much fun in this cabin. It was spooky at night with the coyotes howling and the wind blowing through the trees, we thought it was perfect for our Halloween getaway. Definitely, will be back.

Brought the family for a weekend getaway and this place was PERFECT! Remote enough to be quiet but only a few minutes from shopping and food. Beds were exquisite. Can’t remember when I’ve slept this good! And the kitchen-wish I could take it home with me! Laurie was quick to respond, though we never needed anything because the place had it all! Would love to come back and stay longer! xoxo

This is a good place with plenty of hangout areas. The interior is really nice and the beds are all very good. We did not have any problems finding the driveway, google led us right to it.

The property itself was very nice as was the house. We did have some trouble getting inside when we first arrived. The house was mostly clean but there was old pizza left in the oven from previous renters. Also, we found out the place was double booked but luckily the other party let us stay.
