Beautiful area and very nice host

Overall we had great experience! Sunnie was very nice and welcoming. We only needed one night of sleeping on the way home to Canada. It was so quiet around! We had better sleep that we could imagine! We wish we could stay for longer. Thank you very much! We really enjoyed our stay!

A perfect getaway

We loved everything about this place, Sunnie was an absolutely wonderful host and the it’s a great spot to get out of town and relax. Our dog also loved it, and was especially happy to meet Spanky, the local doggie bon vivant. We couldn’t have enjoyed it more and plan to be back asap!

Big city, small placw getaway

We were overall happy with this small get away. Exactly what we needed and what we were looking for. A small quiet place to shower, eat, sleep after long days on our boat at kicks. We enjoyed Sunnies company and great conversations, stories! The playful kittens on the land were a bonus for us!

Getaway for my daughter and myself

We enjoyed our stay! Sunnie is a fantastic host! We enjoyed fishing in the pond, loved all the kitties and Spanky is a sweet pup! We both love animals and spending time relaxing in the outdoors. Cabin is adorable and clean. Can’t wait to go back and take my granddaughter she will love it! Highly recommended for nice laid back time.

Great, relaxing stay

Sunnie was a fantastic host. She was friendly, responsive, and easy to communicate with. The cabin was the perfect getaway for 4 adults over the Thanksgiving holiday. We spent our time fishing and paddle boating in the pond, at night we spent time around the fire pit. Our dog loved the open space and being able to play with the cats. I would recommend the cabin for people looking for a quiet place to relax.

A slice of heaven

The cabin was exactly what we had expected, absolutely cute. It had all the amenities that were listed in the add, we had everything that we needed for our stay. Our host Sunnie was great, she met us at the Cabin gave us a tour answered all of our questions. Super friendly and just an overall fantastic host. My only complaint would be the internet service was pretty bad, but we were on vacation so it wasn't that big of a deal. If your looking for a quiet place to relax and kick back, I highly recommend this place. Were already making plans to come back.

Carefree, glamping!

My husband, 2 sons and I loved it. Already hoping for a return trip. One son caught his first fish and the other loved running around. Both loved the cats. Sunnie is an awesome host and very accommodating-she dug our a slide and totes for my boys. Great location close to marinas. Thanks Sunnie!

Perfect place to clear the mind.

Always looking for an out of the way getaway and this was perfect. Nice and quiet. Everything was as listed so we were prepared for anything they did or did not provide. It was nice to be able to sit out by the fire in the evening and fishing in the pond. I believe Sunnie and Jimmy go above and beyond to make their guest feel very welcome. Hope to make it back down again in the future.

Cats everywhere

When we arrived there were cats everywhere. My wife is highly allergic, we were greeted by the host she was very friendly but the whole property reeked of cats. We then entered the place and it was worse inside. The smell was horrific. It smelled of pneumonia and cat pee. My wife could not breathe so we left. We were inside for all of 10 minutes and sat outside while we found us another place to stay at 11:30 at night. I do not recommend a stay here.

Quick and easy weekend getaway to get out of the city and breath a little more stress-free

Nice and cozy spot. Inside was warm and inviting and we had everything needed but groceries. Sunnie is very welcoming and hospitable, and our little almost 8-month old took his first couple of steps towards her. There was a nice little lockable sideyard and our k2-year old toddler enjoyed his play area and the cars very much. We did a bit of exploring but our kids were asleep before nightfall so we just enjoyed the campfire and didn't get to the pond. We'll have to go back and fully enjoy the amenities. Thanks Sunnie!

This is camping, not glamping

Upon arrival, there were cats EVERYWHERE as well as their feces. While cute in the photos, the smell is inescapable once you enter. The cabin was dirty, inoperable wifi, no potable water, and a compost toilet that is effectively just a bucket to eliminate in. We arrived after a very long drive and still left at sunrise the next morning. We chose to stay in a basement on an airbed.

Cats galore

I sadly was not able to stay after only being in the cabim for 30 min, i am allergic to black mold and cats. There were more thab i could count of cats om the property, the little cabin was beyond cute but most defenitly had black mold from a storm and a window was busted out, it said it was only 30 min away from the caves on vrbo but is actually a hour and 15 min from it. Was not able to stay beacuse of those two health issues with the property, recieved half of my money back.
