We absolutely loved our stay at this cabin! From the moment we booked, the host went above and beyond with communication and made everything so easy and welcoming. The cabin itself was even better than we expected. It was incredibly clean, cozy and full of charm. You can tell the host put a lot of heart into this place, and it shows. We would absolutely stay here again and recommend it without hesitation. Shout out also for the great recommendations on what to see and do in the area! Thank you so much!

The better then tenting is an accurate description for this property. I wanted a nice relaxing camping experience and that is what I got. The cabin was decorated with a lot of cool items and felt cozy. The bed was comfortable and enjoyed the indoor bathroom and suitable shower much better than an outside bathroom. There is a small refrigerator sink and stove unit that worked great for cooking breakfast. They added an air conditioner and plenty of fans so the inside was nice and cool. There is a fire pit with a couple chairs. I suggest bringing a tri-pod to cook on. The owners were super friendly and very accommodating , attentive friendly they really cared if we were comfortable and satisfied. The neighbors were friendly and respectful and felt safe. The property owner has a private launch and boat dock and allows you to dock your boat on the lake. There is a beach for swimmers and the fishing was great. Caught crappie perch Bass bluegill just trolling around looking at the lake. Enjoyed an awesome hour long firework show at the beach. Their is heat inside and would be a comfy spot for a ice fishing trip in the winter. If you are a camping type person this is a great place and a great price for what you get. I would definitely return again.
