Weather:
This cabin has individually controlled air conditioning for each bedroom and the loft. The loft unit also cools the living room downstairs. Summers can get hot, up to 100°F, so we've provided a tower fan in the living room for extra comfort. In the winter, the air conditioners can be used as heaters, and the fireplaces in the living room and master suite will also help keep you warm. Floor heaters will be provided during the winter months.
Bugs and Gnats:
This cabin is located near a lake, so it may attract bugs occasionally. We have provided a bug zapper for your use, but to stay away from the bugs close all the doors behind you. We have installed door opener alarms on all four sliding doors to remind you to do so. These alarms are not monitoring devices, they are simply to alert you when a door has been opened.
Final Note:
We take our sanitation and cleaning procedures very seriously. We don't want you to get sick, so we'll sanitize the heck out of this place. We'll launder all the linens and disinfect all surfaces with every new stay.
And finally, we provide one pack 'n play for your kiddo. Guest access Navigation:
Use Apple maps if possible for the correct navigation. G-Maps will take you to the wrong exit. The roads to the cabin are marked with red signs saying "7001 Glebe". The gravel driveway is a bit steep and bumpy. We recommend AWD or 4WD, but it is not critical. You will need a car to get around and there is a market with everything you need 1 mile away. Other things to note Security Cameras:
There are four security cameras installed on the property's exterior. One camera is located at the main gate entrance, another is at the entrance door of the cabin, a third is in the side entrance, and the fourth is on one of the storage sheds. The neighborhood is very safe, but these help us to keep an eye on the property.
Septic:
Please keep in mind that we run on septic. So please do not flush ANYTHING that's not toilet paper. We cannot stress that enough.
Wild Life:
There are high chances to spot a family of deer and occasionally even a mama bear and her cubs. While these animals are beautiful, it's important to remember that they are wild and can be unpredictable. Do not touch or approach them, no matter how friendly they seem. Also, do not feed them or leave any food or trash outside, including on the deck or in your car.
The cabin is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2.5 bathrooms, and a patio. There's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms and a dining area. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. The bathroom offers a jetted tub and hair dryers. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Amazing views and memorable stay with family
Great spot with beautiful lake views. We stayed here with our 2-year-old, and she loved it. The cabin is on a big piece of land, and we enjoyed walking around with our kid in the evenings. It felt like a different world. Watching the lake and sunset was amazing. We really liked the fireplace and hammock outside. The kitchen had everything we needed to make meals. The beds were comfy, and they gave us a crib for our kid. The host is very helpful and always there when you need.

Lovely 2 day break
This is a really lovely cabin! Clean and light with wonderful views, it rained while we were there and we saw many rainbows over the lake, beautiful! The kids loved the upstairs games room and the jacuzzi bath was a big hit. The owners are quick to reply to any questions. The only thing to watch out for is the dishwasher, if the door is open and the lower rack is full it has a habit of just rolling out and we couldn’t find a cheese grater but it might have been there somewhere. Also a printed copy of the house rules/instructions would be useful to have rather than relying on our phones to go online or scan the tabs but that’s just a personal preference. I highly recommend the cabin.
