REJUVENATION 🍃 The walkout patio is coated in beautiful slip-resistant carbon flake while bistro lights cast an amber glow over the hot tub and sauna. The hot tub is a 2024 Jacuzzi J-365 that seats up to 6 people. The sauna is a 2024 SalusHEAT dry infrared sauna made for 1-2 people. The sauna has multiple interior lighting color choices and a built-in bluetooth speaker for your favorite jams! The Jacuzzi is loaded with jets, a little waterfall, and gorgeous multi-colored lights. A large set of stairs with handle and assisted lift cover make safe hot tub use a breeze. The hot tub experience in this wooded backdrop is incredible at any time of day. Birds chirping in the morning, gorgeous sunsets, but it is absolutely divine under the soft glow of the bistro lights at night. The only thing more comforting than being massaged by the powerful hot tub jets is wrapping up in an oversized baby soft towel and snuggling in to the hammock swing before deciding what fun you’ll have next.
OUTDOOR FUN 🍁 Just steps from the "therapatio" are large back and side yards. We have a set of regulation bags & boxes with distance rope for you to enjoy! Catching a warm afternoon breeze on the tree swing out front is a whole experience. The tree is massive and absolutely lovely.
SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS 💤 There are 6 sleeping areas in the cabin: 3 bedrooms, 1 loft, 1 main floor living room, and 1 lower level living room. The cabin sleeps 14 total people on beds: 8 on formal beds and 6 on custom pullout sofas with queen memory foam mattresses. Additional sleeping options for up to 10 are available on air mattresses and other lounging furniture throughout.
The upstairs primary bedroom is a dream! An electric fireplace and large tv sit across from a king bed with a remote controlled adjustable foundation with massage feature and a super comfortable extra deep pillow top mattress. The primary bedroom also has a custom queen sleeper sofa and an additional queen air mattress in the closet. A Keurig coffee maker and private bathroom afford guests the luxury of stepping out onto the private balcony for some peaceful personal reflection and tranquility before beginning an exciting, fun-filled day with loved ones. A large ceiling fan suspended from the cedar plank vaulted ceiling offers guests a comfortable breeze and is remote controlled along with its light for convenience.
The main level bedrooms are equipped with heavy duty steel bed frames that support up to 750 pounds and have the same wonderful mattresses as the primary bedroom. There is over a foot of open storage underneath each main level bed for suitcases, shoes, and bags. The closets also have built in drawers and shelving as well as box fans for those who want a cooler room or simply sleep better with the sound. The main level bedrooms are adjacent and just steps from the full main floor bathroom. One bedroom has one bed, and the other has two beds. There are no bunk or stacked beds.
The loft sleeps 2 people on a custom pullout sofa with a queen memory foam mattress and 2 more on an enormous chaise lounge. The main floor livingroom can sleep 2 on the couch and 2 on a queen sized air mattress. The lower level sleeps 2 on a custom pullout sofa with queen memory foam mattress and 2 more on a queen air mattress.
OFFICE ACCOMMODATIONS 💻 There are 2 large desks inside the property and fast, reliable internet. One desk is in the primary bedroom and the other is in the double bedroom on the main floor. Additionally, many travelers prefer to use the kitchen table, counter space, and coffee tables.
BATHROOMS 🧼 All bathrooms (one on each floor) are equipped with luxury rainfall shower heads as well as handheld sprayers. The upper level and basement have showers, while the main floor bath has a tub/shower combo. The shower in the new basement bathroom has wall-mounted body jets too!

PARKING 🚘 The driveway comfortably accommodates 6 vehicles. Additional parking is available, but only fully in the grass on the side of the two streets adjacent to our property and at least 30 feet back from the stop sign.
PORCHES/BALCONIES ☕️ Outdoor gathering spaces overlook wooded acreage and a seemingly endless field with beautiful sunsets. Guests enjoy comfortable couches, chairs, and loveseats while listening to morning birdsongs over coffee or savoring a glass of wine after a wonderful day.
CHARCOAL BBQ GRILL 🍔 Guests should expect to bring their own charcoal, but we will provide lighter fluid, matches, and a coal starter canister. If there is leftover charcoal from a past guest, you are absolutely welcome to use it!
FIRE PIT 🔥 There is a fire pit with several chairs behind the garage just off the breezeway. We do not provide firewood, but there are several locations that carry it right down the road. Sometimes guests leave extra firewood. Anything that is already in that area is yours to use!
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.
