We've been going to Little Switzerland forever, but this was our first time staying at their cabin! We loved having the option of cooking our own meals sometimes, and we just loved the cozy, cabin-style feel with the bears and quilts. We also really appreciated the private fire pit and the extra room for our dog. The owner and his pups were incredibly welcoming.

Charming, well-stocked rustic cabin in a beautiful area. Not a fan of the blind gravel driveway, especially with the rainy weather we experienced, but not a dealbreaker. Jeff was a helpful and responsive host, and we appreciated the welcome wine and s’more ingredients. There were plenty of blankets, space heaters, and a fireplace to help stay warm, and the sunroom, outdoor grill area and firepit would’ve been put to good use if the sun had cooperated. Enjoyed meeting the friendly pups, too!

The cabin has charm and had thoughtful amenities like multiple charging stations, kitchen basics, and firewood (not used in July, but would have been delightful in autumn and winter).Jeff was helpful, friendly, and responsive. Kathleen has an enchanting garden that the cabin overlooks.
