This was the perfect spot for our vacation with our dogs. It was clean, had a beautiful view of the forest around it, and the landscapers/cleaners even built up the firepit for us with logs, which we greatly appreciated. Pro tip, that crimson patterned recliner? You need to call that first when you get in. That's the most comfortable chair I've been in. Watching the sun rise and sun set through the windows was emaculate. I would've loved to have been there during snow, but well worth it outside of that. I love this little house.

We loved the cabin and the location. My only complaints would be the sleeping options. The living room needs more comfortable sofa. Maybe even a sleeper sofa. Futon upstairs is not a good sleeping option at all. We had to buy a foam pad and it still was not too comfortable. But would definitely stay here again and just know to bring extra pads.

Cute little cabin, we have stayed here before and would come back in the future. Easy access. The only downside is having to take your own trash with you when you leave. It wasn't a problem at all, just a little odd to me. But otherwise it was relaxing and enjoyable.

We didn't cook during our stay but the microwave tray doesn't turn so heated items tend to burn. Towels in mstr bath were extremely thin & worn. Mstr bath needs a complete update, some shower tiles cracked & grout missing or black. No towel rods or hooks to hang up towels. The bed however was very comfortable & the cabin was clean.

It is located in a serene location with lots of privacy and trails to walk. The host made special accommodations for us to arrive a tad early so I could stay on schedule with my health regimen. We will definitely run away to this cabin again for some rest and relaxation!
