Wonderful

The cabin was amazingly clean despite being in the woods. It was very quiet. The property was beautiful. A simple way to get away from town for a relaxing vacation. The host was very helpful.
This was our 2nd time in 3 yers staying here! Our dog loves it, we spent 4 nights, had beautiful weather, a wonderful way to start of spring break. The area is beautiful, drove up to snake road. Tom is a great hostWe will be back
The cabin is nestled in the woods at the end of a winding road. Very nice and secluded. Tom, our host was warm and welcoming and respectful of our privacy. My only negative comment is that the place could have been a little cleaner. The bedding, towels, cookware and tableware were all clean. The cabin was a bit dusty. Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay.
Lovely, retro feel, close to campus and town. Wooded property, beautiful views out windows, private deck, wood burning fireplace. Saw an owl! Fishing very nearby but not exactly lakefront. Shower is excellent, kitchen has everything
This was our second weekend at Cabin 3. We love the fireplace, the low key, unobtrusive host, Tom, the quirky vibes, and the woods! Our dogs love being there and Tom doesn’t charge a ton of money for them to stay. The cabin was well equipped and we saw a large barn owl perch for about half an hour just beyond the bedroom window!
The cabin was as described. We enjoyed our overnight. The only negative is nobodys bed is my bed. Cabin was clean and had everything we needed. The owner was very helpful and friendly. We would definitely consider staying again.
The cabin was cozy and in a great location. I loved all the artwork and decor. The host was friendly and available. We enjoyed the fireplace and the firepit. I would note that it only has one bed and a couch as the listing says it sleeps 4.
The cabin was very cozy but unfortunately did not get to use the fireplace because of the warm weather. We are looking forward to come back this fall or winter.
The inside of the cabin was beautiful. The outside could use a little work but we weren't bothered and the host was very nice. Would definitely stay there again if in the area.
If you're looking for a five star all inclusive resort, this is not the place for you. It's a charmingly rustic cabin tucked back in the woods. I've seen the negative reviews complaining about the random vehicles parked about or sheds sitting here and there and to be honest it made me want to book it even more. The cabin was PERFECT. The host, Tom, was so welcoming. You feel like you're in the backwoods somewhere but you're only a minute from town. We throughly enjoyed our stay and our only complaint was that it wasn't long enough. If you're looking for something different I highly recommend this lovely little place!
