This cabin was fun to stay in. It was very clean and the bed comfortable. Most of all it was in a beautiful and peaceful setting! We would come back if in the area again.
We had an excellent stay. The owner went above and beyond in her hospitality. This was the best rental experience that we have had. The property is beautiful and there is an abundance of wildlife to see. Would love to stay there again.
Very easy check-in and great communication with the host. The cabin had a lot of atmosphere and it was very quiet and relaxing. For a small kitchen, it had everything you might need. We liked Sorento’s Bar &Grill so much we ate there twice! Come and stay, relax and watch the deer.
We had a great stay! The cabin is well equipped and cozy. The hosts were very sweet and had some goodies for us as well. We loved our time there and would book again!
We had a wonderful stay at this updated but rustic cabin. The owners provided goodies and the cabin was just what we needed to unplug! Can't wait to go back!
We enjoyed our stay! The hosts were wonderful and did so many little things to make the cabin welcoming! This trip was a much needed retreat for 2 very overstressed parents. Plus our dogs enjoyed the wide open space to run. We are so glad we chose this cabin!
We loved this property! The history of the cabin was so cool. We really enjoyed the screened in back porch. Communication with the owner was prompt and friendly. We will definitely be back!
This was an amazing cabin . Had everything you need and then some. Not far from the water but still secluded. We will definitely be staying in the future. Highly recommend staying in this real 1800s log cabin.
Great place to sit back and enjoy peace and quiet!! The host is very accommodating and thoughtful regarding for such as me...first time "user" of Vrbo. I was thoroughly pleased with my time spent.
Being on a private estate property made it so much more enjoyable. The surroundings were full of beautiful greenery and wildlife. It was the unwind from the grind we were looking for. Jennifer was a top shelf host!! We did not want or need for anything. Thank you!
Fantastic property, great host. Everything we needed was there. We had a great time. Bunny, our little mini-dachshund didnt want to leave. Literally had to chase her from front door to back door. We had a great time.
My wife and I were so glad we found this super cool cabin. It’s great that it’s being maintained and available! The back screened-in porch is wonderful. On our second night, the forest was alive with lots of sounds. The kitchen was very well stock, the cabin was cozy, the bed was super comfortable, and it was nice having the full bath in the loft. Owners are great, and I’d stay here again.
What a lovely little cabin. Looks exactly as pictured. Very well stocked with everything you need. Bed was comfortable. Cabin was sparkling clean. There is a fire pit in back with plenty of wood. Wonderful screened in porch was perfect for sitting, especially in the morning while drinking coffee and watching deer.
While the cabin is old, the inside is very modern. In fact, this is one of the most up-to-date cabins I have rented. I was very impressed with how clean it was. Outdoor space is great and the lake access is easy (best for kayaks). Top of my list! P.S. Check for ticks in season.
