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.

Parental Recharge

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!

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.

Quaint and Cozy!!

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.

Sweet, Historic Cabin in a Peaceful Setting

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.

Perfect getaway cabin

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.

Loved It!

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.

Unforgettable

So well done. Visually, so many lovely things to see, the house inside and out is so very historic and beautiful. The hosts have everything organized, neat, clean, and fixed so that you can have a relaxing time. It was so quiet, we relaxed right away, listening to the walnuts drop off the trees in the back. That back porch is perfect. Hosts helped a lot with our questions, and it was very memorable and maybe my favorite of any rentals we've had.
