The house is really cute. My Mom loved it. The outside bedroom in the summer kitchen was nice but musty smelling and messed with all of our allergies.

Relaxing Retreat

Our small group of 4 recently stayed in this beautifully restored cabin, along with our dogs, when we came into town for a big Agility trial close by. What a treat it was to stay in someplace so calm and spacious, instead of a crowded, cookie cutter hotel, or motel!Our host was quick to respond with any questions we had from the moment we first wanted to book you accommodation.

Perfect little getaway

We were super excited to stay in such a charming historic cabin. Felt like staying at an old family homestead. The rental is furnished with absolutely everything you could possibly need if staying with dogs or family. We really appreciated all the character and thoughtfulness put into the property.

Great cabin!

This place has a lot of charm! It’s decorated nicely and has lots of upgrades. We loved the combination of new and rustic! The kids got a kick out of the slanted floors and the bidet! We had a great 2 night stay with 6 people. I highly recommend this cozy cabin.

Gorgeous Property!

Linda has an amazing little spot in Carroll County. It's close enough to Westminster to hop down and grab some supplies, but far enough from civilization to enjoy the wilderness. The neighborhood is quiet, the cabin is a cute little joy, and the bumble bees are a treat.

Beautiful Historic Cabin

This cabin was just perfect! It was beautifully decorated with both the old & modern look. The cabin included all the cooking essentials we needed for our stay. The host was quick to respond with any questions. The place was super clean! We brought our 2 Golden Retriever girls with us & the fenced in field was perfect for playing fetch! They absolutely loved it! I loved the slanted floors & the old farmhouse appearance! I highly recommend this cabin! ❤️🐾🥰 The grocery store & other stores were only about 10 minutes away which was also great! I wish our stay was longer! Definitely will be back again! 💗

Relaxing time

We enjoyed our long weekend at the cabin. The house was interesting and we got used to its quirks (low ceilings, slanted floors and steep staircase). The king sized bed was super comfortable. The refrigerator is small with other food in there but luckily they have a separate fridge in the cottage bedroom so we could fit our food. The immediate yard off the house is not fenced but is largely bordered by hedges. There is a separate fenced field that is secure. Our dog loved the yard and there was plenty of space for ball playing. The neighborhood was beautiful and the roads were quiet for walking. The first couple of days we used the electric fireplace for warmth in the living room, but at the end of our stay we took advantage of the outside furniture and the beautiful spring weather.

About the host

Hosted by Linda S Jarrin

Host profile image
I am a wife to an amazing husband and mother of 2 wonderful children. Traveling is a passion of mine and when we found the Log Cabin, I knew it was a special find that I could share with others.

Why they chose this property

When we were downsizing after our children left the nest, we found the beautiful gem that we fell in love with immediately. We lived here for 5 years, farming the land (first time farmers), and really got connected with the place. When we moved, I couldn't imagine giving it up, so we decided to turn it into a rental because we thought others would enjoy it as much as we did.

What makes this property unique

When you stay here you get a unique opportunity to experience the past with the benefits of modern amenities. The cabin and cottage are filled with fairy lights on the ceilings, giving the place a magical glow. It's located on beautiful 5 acres with large trees and spacious grasslands to run and play.
