Booked this cabin for a reunion with some friends. Facility was excellent; well maintained, organized and spacious. Great location and hosts were incredible - we will definitely be back! :)
We stay here almost every year and love it for our family Christmas! Norma and Phil are always great to work with and the cabin is always clean and ready for our arrival.See you next year!
We loved this place, so neat and organized. We had an issue with the hot tub and couldn't use it, disappointed family. We had an issue with cracked ping pong balls and new ones were delivered, so we were grateful.
Second year in a row at this property and it’s perfect for a large family and friends gathering. So much fun and wonderful memories. Thank you again!!!
This is our third time going to the Karshner Place and we love it!! The grandchildren love it and we have plenty of space to enjoy the family. We are looking forward to the next time already!
Stayed for a family birthday, there were 14 of us, and there was plenty of space. We enjoyed the pool table and ping pong table, and the fire pit. The kitchen was well stocked also. Great weekend and beautiful home.
Pretty much perfect! Very clean! Good amount of space. Huge hot tub with good jets. Lots of towels though a few more hot tub towels would be nice! We would love to come back with our group!!
Our ladies Bible study has stayed her two years in a row and truly enjoy it. Great location, clean, well equipped and this year was the addition of a Blackstone! We used it both Friday night for dinner and Saturday morning for bacon & hashbrowns! It was awesome. We had 11 ladies this year and the living room easily accommodates us for our studies. The dining area has both bar/island seating and 2-8' tables that easily sat 10. With all of us coffee consumers, having a 2 burner Bunn is perfect. Due to the high temps we chose not to use the hot tub and with the dry weather, there was a 'no burn' in the county so we were unable to use the fire pit area (huge bummer!) Owners are quick to respond, if needed. Would recommend for study groups, multi-family get aways.
Our group included 5 adults and 7 kids between the ages of 9 and 15. This location was fantastic for adults being able to gather and play games or chat while the kids had more than enough space to play on the lower level. One of the things that we liked most about this property was that there was a large table upstairs so that we could all sit and eat together. The table seated 12, but we could have added at least five or six more if you include the counter and bar stools right next to the table. Also, if we wanted to we could have set up chairs on the lower level and had two more tables. The extra tables and chairs were conveniently located on the lower level if we wanted to use them. There were plenty of bathrooms, but it was a little disappointing that there was no bathroom located on the third floor. There were lots of helpful signs posted around the house that helped us remember the rules and take good care of the place. We would definitely stay here again!
The cabin was comfortable, we played games, had a campfire with smores of course, and a short drive to hiking. Nice home,good location. All 14 of us enjoyed the weekend, kitchen was equipped, plenty games, and quiet time if you wanted it.
Great day enjoyed the pool table and hot tub the most
