Great weekend getaway

Our stay at this cabin was truly delightful. The location was perfect, providing a secluded woodland setting while remaining conveniently close to town. We loved the wood burning stove. The kitchen was fully stocked and all appliances were in excellent working condition. Communication with Matt, the owner, was outstanding. We definitely look forward to returning here in the future.

Winter Getaway Wonder

Stayed here for a short weekend getaway in winter, absolutely gorgeous place. Off the beaten track, but easy enough to get to some fun places around. House was cozy as you can ask for, wood stove, wood paneling, comfy bed and a couch you can doze off while listening to the fire crackling. Do be aware that you're not in a very good cell-signal area, as we got a bit turned around heading around the nearby park, and some of the "roads" marked on Google Maps are actually snowmobile trails that Google thinks are roads. The manager supplied a lot of great maps which helped a ton. Highly recommend Drooly Bear!

Great cabin for big group getaway

Came here to reunite with some college friends and the cabin had everything we could have needed. The kitchen is well stocked for making meals, the firepit and outdoor swing were great outdoor hangout spots, there were plenty of beds and blankets for everyone, and the host was very communicative.

Absolutely amazing

We were looking for what we always dreamed of a cabin experience should be, quiet, secluded, charm, in the woods & this was it times 10. The gravely wooded drive down the lane to the property gave me high hopes of a peaceful weekend & it delivered. As soon as we turned into the driveway, it was exactly what we hoped for. The front porch was warm & inviting. Walking into the home, the pictures online do not do it justice, its even better in person. The downstairs living room, dining room & kitchen all open to one another & the flow is great. The fully stocked kitchen was great. I noticed theres even a bread machine, crockpot & rosters, which are convenient & a nice surprise. We only used the master bedroom but the bed was very comfortable, pillows were fantastic (I even jumped online to order some for home). It rained the whole weekend but did not mind one bit as this was a mini getaway for my boyfriend & I, & our lab baby, to get in some relaxation and find some peace & rest. When we arrived, the caretaker had graciously stocked wood inside the cabin for us to start the wood stove with, which was a blessing with the rain.We made sure to do the same prior to leaving. We will hands down be returning. Matt was an excellent host & was so accommodating. Just a note for pet parents, its extremely dog friendly, however we learned that with our almost 13 yr old lab, the deck steps were too much for him & had to carry him up & down, just a note for the senior pets.

Sunmertime Stay

It was a little warm in the cabin ac- portables did not cool the open loft design and did not go to the back bedrooms. It was a bit damp due to humidity and portables not being enough. Great communication with Matt who wanted to discuss the stay with us so he can make changes for future guests. Great location for getting to the lake and a small beach swim area at the lake.

We really love this place. Matt was great! We have stayed here before and we probably will be back. All the issues we had or might have had were quickly resolved. I suggest that you too come out to this cabin for a few days of relaxation in the woods.
