beautiful solid cabin. Great books on the history of the area. Truly enjoyed are restful stay! I just wish it was warmer, so we could have enjoyed the amazing stars at night and just the beauty of the area. We would rent again.
We had a great stay at this property and were amazed at the abundance of wildlife around us. The cabin was very clean and the amenities were excellent.
