This cabin was everything we could have hoped for and lived up to its name “cozy nook”. A wonderful screened in porch, very comfortable mattresses, great wifi, easy accessibility and ample parking. Very quiet and tranquil during our stay. Highly recommend this property.

"We had an absolutely wonderful time staying at the cabin. It was super clean, cozy, and tucked away in a quiet, peaceful setting. The beds were very comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we needed. We loved unwinding in the hot tub after spending the day exploring the area. The host was responsive, friendly, and made check-in a breeze. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway!"

Thank you so much for your wonderful review and 10/10 rating! We're so happy you enjoyed The Cozy Nook. Our cleaner said you left the place absolutely spotless, and we truly appreciate the care you took of our cabin! We did get a little chuckle out of the hot tub mention, we're wondering if you might have meant relaxing by the fireplace or unwinding around the fire pit! 😊 Either way, we're so glad you had a wonderful stay. You're welcome back to The Cozy Nook anytime!

This location is one of the best cabins in the area; I felt like a billionaire!Everything you could ever need is here in this cabin. My wife and I had a great time decompressing from the everyday rat race. The decor seems to be designed by an expert, and if they aren't they should be. I hope the people that who stay after us keep this place nice for us when we come back lol. Worth every penny!

Visited with my fiancé as a short getaway from the hustle and bustle of work. Although it was a rainy weekend, we had an extremely relaxing time. The cabin had plenty of amenities to keep us cozy and happy and hearing the rain falling on the cabin was serene. The bed downstairs was extremely comfortable! My fiancé almost never gets excellent sleep and the two nights we were there he slept perfectly! Beautiful cabin and feels like a cabin retreat/resort. We plan to return!

The cabin was very clean and up to date. It was stocked with everything we needed. The Cozy Nook is exactly how it's discribed. A smaller cabin that's very inviting and comfortable. We enjoyed the outside firepit while eating smores. The owners are very helpful and quick to respond. The road is paved all the way to the cabin, so there's no trouble getting to it. Altogether, we enjoyed our time there.

This location was so peaceful and a perfect getaway spot! Me and my boyfriend really enjoyed the peace and quiet. The way the cabin is set up is so cozy I am sad to be leaving :( but everything was as mentioned and they even provided a welcome tray with goodies! The hosts were super nice and responded to me right away with any questions. It was not far from the downtown area which we frequented the breweries and restaurants and even went and played mini golf which was just down the road. I will definitely be coming back!
