Very cute and cozy place. Close to Old Forge. Comfy beds, nice kitchen, great shower. It worked well for us and our four adult kiddos. Definitely could use a deep clean! The fans were coated with an inch of dust and other things that should have some attention. All in all we enjoyed our stay.

Cabin was clean and convenient. Peaceful with enough room for the kids to explore the surrounding nature. Host was very helpful and instructions were clear. We will certainly be booking again in the future.

Perfect setup!

I took my sister and her friends for her birthday celebration and it was lovely! It is also located only 10 minutes away from cute little shops and water safari so that is definitely ideal. The only thing I recommend for future guests in the summer time is that you should maybe bring an extra fan or two, the house has many fans but when everyone is in the same room together, it gets quite warm. Wonderful stay and we all would love to book this home again :)

The Cutest Little Cabin!

This place was so adorable and had literally everything we needed for a fun week. Kind of a bummer that we had to bring our own sheets and towels, and there were some wet/moldy towels in the bunk room when we arrived (and also a random pair of wool socks?), but other than that we couldn’t have asked for a better stay. We put the kids in the bunk room so the adults could have some peace, and it worked out great. Supposedly there is beach access for the lake with this property, but we never figured out how to get there without having to cut through someone’s private property — to be fair, we didn’t try all that hard and I didn’t try to contact property management about it or anything because it wasn’t that important to us. Overall, this was a super relaxing and lovely place to use as our home base for exploring the mountains. Will 100% book again!!

Peaceful Pines

We had a great stay. My family has a camp that’s walking distance just not big enough for all of us at the same time. It’s really nice to be able to stay at peaceful pines.

Quiet and Charming

This place was nice little escape for a family weekend away. The house is situated in a nice quiet area, but close to the main road. Made it easy to come and go. Even though it may seem small, its nice yard makes up for it. Kids enjoyed the whole experience.

My wife was too pregnant to tent camp this year, this was an awesome replacement to accommodate her needs. The location and yard were quiet and peaceful, the beds were comfy, and the kitchen was great.

Beautiful but cramped

We loved the house but for 5 people and 1 infant it was a bit cramped. There isn’t a whole lot of seating together for all of us in one room. We booked in July so it was hot and the fans weren’t quite able to cut the heat. There was some trash/ items left from previous people as well. However, the proximity to the private lake as well as old forge was amazing! Definitely recommend this place!
