This property is truly a hidden gem! It was very secluded and offered many activities that we didn't have to leave the area if we didn't want to. The entire house was spotless and provided everything we needed for a nice relaxing stay. The host provided quick response and was very kind. Will definitely stay here again!

The cabin was fully stocked with great quality items, pristine and was perfect for our family of 4 (plus our pup). The kids were most excited about fishing and hiking, which were a bit difficult to do — trees near the pond made it a non-stop issue with line getting tangled. A paddle boat or some type of cleared out area offering more space to cast would be superb! Also, while there are trails to hike, things were so overgrown and not marked at all so we weren’t able to hike — just walked up and down the gravel drive. Had these two areas been improved, the trip would have been perfect!

We loved this cabin & enjoyed verything that was offered there! The cabin was fully stocked with everything you need! My husband and I enjoyed fishing in the pond and relaxing in the hot tub. The cabin is just as beautiful as it was online. The host got back to me very quickly when we had a question. We loved seeing all the animals outside but the only thing we didn’t like was the neighbor is allowed to ride their 4 wheeler at this property. They rode at 9:30pm and I had to message the host to see what was going on and he said he lets them do that. We didn’t like that someone was allowed on the property while we were there. That was only complain that we had.
