The location is secluded and lovely, particularly for nature lovers like us. The amenities were basic, neither fancy nor sub-standard. Communication with the host was easy. We will be recommending the place to our daughter’s in-laws for their upcoming visit.

This property was so cute, it was perfect for me ane my girlfriend to relax and connect. We loved our mornings sitting on the front porch drinking coffee and listening to the creek below. The cabin was very clean and everything we needed was available. Would stay again.

Very friendly and fast responding hosts. Has everything you needed for a wonderful country vacation. Enjoyed the camp fire pit 2 of the nights, saw snow for the first time ever, walked the creek and just enjoyed all the outdoor scenery this cozy place offers.
