We stayed here over the weekend and had a wonderful time and will certainly be returning. Debbie and her husband were absolutely fantastic and very communicative throughout our stay. The cabins were nice and cozy. We would recommend bringing bug repellent and bed sheets/blankets. The AC was really good in the cabin and we had a wonderful stay. 10/10 recommended!!

Mini Weekend Getaway

We had a wonderful time here! We booked the wrong cabin on VBRO but thankfully the one we wanted was still available and Debbie and Larry made the switch easy! Such a lovely area! We will be back!!

Amanda's group were great guests.... they left the cabin clean, respected our rules, were easy to communicate with, and appreciative of everything. It was a joy to see them enjoy the grounds, the complimentary boat, and campfire next to the cabins. Look forward to their next visit!

This place was a nice quiet getaway for us on Labor Day weekend. The hosts are fantastic and super kind. Once you arrive on the property, it can be a little confusing to know which road to take to get to the campsite, but the owner’s met us and led us right there on their golf cart. My kids loved being outdoors, and my daughter spent the whole weekend fishing.

Camping

We were looking for a place that was more like camping. Perfect spot and very peaceful and quiet. The owners were awesome and friendly. Enjoyed our time camping without tents. On a mattress

It was our pleasure to host this beautiful nature loving couple and to watch them enjoy the premises... sitting beside their cabin looking at the lake, enjoying the peaceful campfires and discovering the different variety of birds. It was obvious that they enjoyed the nature and peace here! They truly belonged here!

Anniversary get away

Very quiet place!! Host was very friendly. A tree fell by the cabin we paid for and she upgraded us to one of the modern cabin. Very nice and clean!! We had a very peaceful weekend. Exactly what we were looking for.

Basic

This cabin is perfect if you want more of a rustic experience. Bathrooms are portapotties only, cabins are very small with bunk beds, fridge, and microwave. That being said the views behind the cabin are gorgeous. I would recommend if you are okay with roughing it.

Yes these are rustic cabins, actually more semi-rustic in that they have electricity, and include a fridge and microwave; 2 very sturdy bunkbeds, built with lots of head room for taller people on lower bunk; table with chairs; and still plenty of space for a couple blow up mattresses. Cabins are actually 12 x 16 in size, and sit right on the lake and nestled up in a the woods on a very private area, called our youth camp, just off our 180 acres campground. Our youth camp, where the rustic cabins are is 13 acres of privacy, total peace and quiet... a nature lovers, birdwatcher, outdoor lovers dream! Outside cabin is a grill and picnic table, and just over 50 feet away is our outdoor privies/pit toilets, old fashioned water pump with water safe for drinking, and newly remodeled shower house with cedar wood (near future will include sauna inside)... not too shabby for "roughing it" :-) Yes, it's true, the cabins have a gorgeous backdrop!! Not sure why we're rated low for having a "rustic cabin" which is what we're renting but hopefully you will check it out for yourself! p.s.... by the way, we do have modern cabins with full bath, kitchenette, cathedral ceilings for those who want all the amenities.
