The cabin was the perfect size and beautifully furnished. The hosts were extremely friendly and helpful; they even stopped by to help us with the television. The axe throwing was a fun activity. I loved the swings by the fire pit. We had a beautiful stay and enjoyed sitting on the porch watching the deer.

Such a cute cabin. It was very clean, modern and cozy. We loved all the special touches in and around the property. The hosts are great people and hard workers- they put a lot into these properties. If I had to give any advice:bring your own supply of soaps, paper towels, paper products etc if that’s something you use a lot of. There is a Dollar General right down the road though for any supplies you may have forgot or need during your stay. We would stay here again- loved it.

The whole experience was fantastic. You have to make sure to checkout the giant Bigfoot in the woods. Its amazing. The villas were clean and comfortable. The whole stay was fantastic. I sat and watched the deer at night and early in the morning. I loved it. They also have firewood all ready to use. It rained most of my stay but the front porch was comfortable and we were able to sit out and just enjoy the forest. I have nothing negative to say about stay. Thank you so much. Oh the bed and pillows were also great!!

My dog Gator and I had a very nice timeThe hosts are very friendly and accommodating. The cabin is very cozy… Only recommendation I would have is to have instructions inside the cabin on how to utilize things like the fireplace, where to take the garbage, etc.Otherwise, it was great!

I booked this cabin for my husband’s birthday and we LOVED it!!! It’s so cute and charming. Very clean, and had every amenity that we needed. The swings and fire pit are so nice and the ax throwing is such a fun additional benefit! If you stay here definitely take a walk on the property! Lol trust me it’s so worth it!! I won’t give it away because the surprise was the most fun part for us, but when you see it you’ll know!

We had the most amazing weekend getaway at this cozy little cabin. Everything was perfect. We enjoyed the scenery of the little town and all the trails we hiked minutes from the cabin. We even had snow which made the trip that much more magical. Will definitely be booking again in the future. And watch out for Bigfoot

This is a beautiful and quiet location. A visiting group of deer were charming. Two fire pits and extremely comfortable spots to sit and enjoy the quiet! The cabin is just as pictured and the bed was wonderful!

My wife and I had such a lovely and relaxing time with our two furry friends! We really enjoyed the fire pit, and the deer that would come by in the evenings were a treat. The cabin was super clean and beautiful. The host was so pleasant and always ready to answer any questions we had about the area.

Very quiet and secluded cabins, nobody else nearby. Great walking trails, especially for the dogos. Cabin was so comfortable and the backyard was an incredible hangout spot for the family! Firewood provided was an excellent touch when everywhere else is selling for $20 a bundle. We will be back for sure!

Fantastic Stay

The cabin was perfect for two adults and two small children. The interior of the cabin was beautiful and exceptionally clean. The exterior included a yard with a privacy fence which is great for pets and kids.The thing that stood out to me the most is the kindness and hospitality of John, the owner/property manager. John went above and beyond to ensure we had comfortable stay. We will definitely be staying there again.
