Very attentive host
The host communicated very well and made sure he set the correct expectations. Super cute cabin and well stocked with all you need. The outdoor area provided a lot of entertainment opportunities and the neighbors were very nice.

Peaceful, secluded cabin
If you want to get away from it all & recharge in nature, this is your place. Covered porch with rocking chairs and high top table was great for relaxing and the cabin is on a low traffic road under a canopy of tall pines.
All the basics were provided. Welcoming and clean. Use Google maps as suggested, since Apple maps takes you to the wrong address. Owner says they’re working on getting a filter system, but bring a supply of drinking water. Recent heavy rains had the well water looking a bit brownish. Grounds had plenty of space for dogs.
