Perfect stay for a quick getaway! Just as listed, clean and adorably decorated. Loved the fire pit, walking trail through the woods, and snacks. Also highly recommend getting one of Dawn’s breakfast baskets- delicious!

Wonderfully secluded

We were very happy to find this serene getaway, remote enough to feel like we were away from the busy daily life, but with dining and other options close enough to meet our needs. Our hosts were extremely welcoming and friendly, offering assistance with anything and everything we needed. Any of their three cabinns would be a great place to get away.

lovely place to get away from the city or stop along a roadtrip. we were driving from DC to Chicago and wanted a little stop along the way and it was perfect for that! the host was very nice and accommodating. if we ever make the same drive, I’d love to stop by again. just a heads up, the pool is still a bit cold, but I’m sure it’ll warm up as it heads deeper into the summer. I was a bit disappointed, but it was still nice to dip our feet in and watch the birds!

A quiet and relaxing gem

What a great find. Quiet, relaxing, tons of extra's, nature, wild life, an escape from the busy world. Even the extra breakfast box for 40 and cinnemon rolls were worth it. A must stay at least once in everyones life.

Such a wonderful weekend in a beautiful little Bungalow! It was just what we needed. A very welcoming, clean, bright and comfortable place away from it all. Our hosts were wonderful and friendly. The bungalow had everything we needed and we are already planning to return.

A Relaxing Retreat

I have stayed at many rental properties and this one stands out! It was located in such a quiet relaxing and private atmosphere, that I spent more time at the bungalow than planned. The kitchen and grill were fully equipped to make a meal, yet several good restaurants were only a 15 min drive away as well. The hosts were incredibly nice, accessible, and accommodating. I will definitely be back again.

Mother's Day weekend 2021

The location, comfort, size, layout of bungalow, ease of booking and contact with hostess was absolutely SPOT ON!!! Got exactly what we needed; which was a close, stress-free, happy get-away that wouldn't break the bank! Dawn is talented in the art of anticipatory hospitality and has a beautiful layout to share with those who are blessed enough to come across this wonderful place!!! I think it's obvious...we had a great stay! 😊

Beautiful Get Away

The property is very cute and cozy, and sits away from the road and at the edge of a forest. Great attention to detail in amenities and decor. Dawn was very accommodating and responded quickly via chat. Will likely return in the future.

Just perfect!

The planning and work that went into the Bungalow was so incredibly evident. I don't have a bad thing to say about it. Was bright and welcoming, updated, plenty of room for me and comfy. The amenities were great too, the owners thought of everything.Fresh cinnamon rolls, snack basket, coffee, toiletries, you name it. It was like being at home.

Overnight at The Bungalow

Our (too short) overnight stay at The Bungalow was exactly what we were needing. A night away from it all. Peaceful and relaxing. Birdwatching, reading and wine make for a nice evening. The night sky was star filled. The unit was very clean and well thought out. Owners live on the property and seem to be available if you need anything.

Peaceful sanctuary!

This is the place to go when you need a peaceful retreat from life! Peaceful, clean, beautifully decorated, comfortable furniture, nicely maintained walking trails through the woods, a well stocked bird feeder…everything about this bungalow was perfect for our Mother/daughter retreat. While it is small, the interior feels quite spacious. Dawn and Virgil were warm, welcoming, and attentive. Every encounter with them was pleasant. We will definitely be back!
