Perfect Holiday Getaway

This cabin exceeded our expectations! It was the perfect spot. The host had great communication, the property was fully equipped with everything we needed, and the layout was perfect for privacy from our two kids when needed. We 100% will be back. I was a bit nervous going into this because I am typically pretty frugal, and splurged to stay here, but this property was worth every penny.

Adorable little log cabin

My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights while our kids were at sleep away camp nearby. We absolutely loved the cozy little cabin! The little touches like fresh coffee beans and a grinder, bottle of good red wine and fully stocked kitchen and spices made our stay extra special! Bonus that the cabin was pet friendly and our dog could join us! We enjoyed a campfire every night (they provide the wood) and the private location. We saw deer and hummingbirds on property and enjoyed reading and relaxing on the porch. We took advantage of local activities including a round of golf at Cragun’s and mountain biking at Cuyuna recreation area. Would definitely recommend and stay again!

Restart

The property was a wonderful place to relax, renew and restart your mind and body. We needed an escape from reality after months of anxiety and stress over health, family and business matters. We felt we were far far away from our normal life. Would have enjoyed more places to eat close by so we didn't have to cook. I would definitely return but it was too much quietness for my husband. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to truly get away from it all.

It was really good. Could use some rails around the steps to get in and out up and down.

Had a little problems getting up on the deck and in the house and there should be a hamper in the bathroom for the dirty towels so we don’t have to lay them on the floor just idea but we had a good time
