Winter get away.
Nice secluded place. Good outdoors. We brought our dogs. They loved the outdoor. In this cabin the sleeping arrangements are on the second floor. The stairway was uneven - our dogs had much difficulties to get up and down and frankly were scared of them. It was difficult to keep the place warm - we did burn a lot of wood. We are thankful that the owner provided as much wood as needed. Communication with the owner was amazing. He was very helpful. Good shower and good kitchen equipment.Overall it was very nice.

Safety Concerns
The cabin and area are beautiful, but the cabin is rough. The railing at the edge of the loft was not safe, and two floor boards were unattached at the edge of the loft. We were eating at the dining table and a bolt fell down. Basic necessities were missing like salt, sugar, kitchen towels, and wash clothes. The host was easy to communicate with and willing to reimburse us for any items we needed which was helpful. We make the best of it and had a great time. The location is beautiful.

Winter Wonderland in the Pines! Beautiful
Beautiful rough log cabin in the pines! An up north smell and feel of an old times cottage! Warmth of an old wood stove, plent of good oak logs just outside the door, enhanced by a gas heater, warm enough with wood stove alone. Thank you for the stay, look forward to next time!

Cozy peaceful secluded cabin
Surrounded by so many beautiful trees, this cabin has a fantastic patio for multi use, stocked kitchen (with an igloo ice maker that makes ice super fast!), lots of beds, and plenty of space to lounge after a long day hiking and exploring the area.
