Everything was very nice, tucked out of the way, but still quick to get to anything that was needed!

Excellent Stay

This cabin features a cozy fire pit and, while it's slightly outside of town, it's conveniently close to stores. It's beautiful and well-equipped with everything you need for a great stay. Host was helpful and friendly. Exceeded my expectations!

Just what we were looking for!

We needed a place in this vicinity for a couple weeks that allowed pets and had a country feel and this cabin fit the bill! Everything worked out well, we had no issues and we enjoyed our stay.

Perfect retreat

Check in was very easy. Access to rental upon arrival was a tad confusing as their are multiple buildings in the area yet home was very secluded and has great outdoor features including a deck and firepit. Inside is as you see in photos, perfect for what we needed. Thanks so much for having us. Will come again

Weekend away

We came just to get away for the weekend and had the most wonderful time! This was exactly the home-away-from-home we were looking for. We were warm, comfortable, and enjoyed the peace and quiet. The beds were comfortable, the shower was hot and spacious, and the kitchen had all the equipment we needed to prep and cook all of our meals. JD was so nice and very responsive when we contacted him and we can't wait to come back in the spring!

It's the 3rd Cabin

We booked this spot because it was close to our son's wedding venue. We were also able to make a lot of food for the reception there. We had family and friends in and out- it was a great time. We are greatful to Jerry for all his help.

Pleasant cabin in the woods

This is a cozy cabin with a full kitchen. It’s out in the woods, but there’s a grocery store a few miles away. There was a tech glitch on getting the door code to work that was straightened out in about 15-20 minutes. The host really tries to be helpful. Definitely pay attention to the directions he gives to the cabin, the map my GPS uses would try to send you driving through wetlands. The sleep area is upstairs, the one bathroom is downstairs , you need to be okay with that.
