Cute place that allowed us to be near Camp Ondessonk but also allowed us to hike and explore nearby wineries. The place had a great design that made it feel large, welcoming, and cozy. Also, Nicole was very attentive and accommodating.
We had a great stay at this cute cabin! The property is quiet and peaceful, with lovely surroundings. The cabin itself has so many thoughtful touches throughout. It was very comfortable and well-stocked, even basic spices, cooking oil, and tupperware were provided, which made meal prep so easy. We especially appreciated the firewood being supplied for the outdoor fire pit. Everything was clean, cozy, and just as pictured. Highly recommend!
Great little cabin near the water. There isn’t great access to the water directly from the cabin. But the area around seems to be in the process of being built up. The Fire-pit with the string lights over top was a nice added touch that made hanging outside more enjoyable. The kitchen supplies were very nice considering the size and price point. Overall well worth the stay. I will plan on coming again soon!
