The kitchen is well equipped with an electric stove, microwave, Keurig coffee maker (pods not included) basic cooking utensils, griddle and a full size refrigerator. If that grilled-over-the-campfire flavor is what you crave, a classic charcoal weber grill awaits out back, just remember to bring your favorite briquettes with you!

Unwind at the end of the day with a soothing soak under the stars in the jacuzzi on the back deck, or a tell stories and share laughs around the fire pit in the back yard.

We had a great time. Cabin was easy to find. It was sufficiently stocked. We loved that there were board games. Beds were comfortable, and we particularly enjoyed the recliner in the living room. In sum, we enjoyed, ate, drank, & were merry. Thank you, John!

Perfect spot for family fun

First let me so communication with the host was top notice. Our family enjoyed canoeing/ kayaking in the lake and lots of fun spent around the campfire and hot tub. One of the main attractions is only 7 minutes away and the other is 25.

Peaceful stay

This is a really beautiful property. Check in was extremely easy. We never had any need to reach out to the owner because everything was clean, comfortable and working perfectly. The location is perfect , it is so close to town, but still feels remote. Make sure to blow up those air mattresses and use the porch swing beds , that ended up being our favorite spot, it was a great place to hang out at night with my 8 year old son and look at the stars and listen to nature once we were done in the afternoons with exploring and playing outside all day. There are some other cabins in the area that are there with this one, but there are some large trees in between and the other cabins main hang out areas are on the opposite side of where the balcony with the porch swing beds. The hot tub is on the back right by the fire pit which made is absolutely perfect for throwing ourselves a little party with the cornhole boards out, hot tub going, fire pit burning, comfortable outdoor furniture and a grill all in the back of the cabin. Even with a large group in the cabin by us we never felt crowded or like we didn't have privacy. It really is a perfect setup. My family highly recommends it to anybody considering booking.

Quiet Getaway

My family (my husband, our 3 kids, my parents, and me) came for 6 days. Every single one of us enjoyed our stay. It was beautiful, quiet, clean, and comfortable. The hot tub, lake, and porch swing beds were well loved features. We began discussing when we could return within the first few days!
