We loved our stay! The owners clearly put a lot of thought into the details, making it feel very comfortable and welcoming. We loved the short morning walks down to the water—it was such a peaceful way to start the day.Ruth provided thorough information before our stay, which made arriving at night smooth and stress-free. She responded quickly to any questions and gave excellent recommendations for local restaurants.Overall, we had an amazing stay and would definitely recommend this cabin!

Loved this tiny house!

We had a great stay and definitely putting on my list of places to stay again! I wasn't sure of staying in a tiny house because I didn't want to feel too cramped. But, it felt more spacious inside than I expected. Very clean, and had everything we needed. The outdoor space was very nice, but a bit too cold for us to enjoy it. We'll have to come back in the summer. We booked this location because of its proximity to the Standing Stone Trail. It was a great spot for our adventure of hiking the trail, dinner at Checker's, then getting toasty warm after. Definitely would stay again!
