We enjoyed our stay at this property. The listing did make it seem like this property was secluded, however there are neighbors. It’s still very quiet. The cushions for the outdoor furniture were worn and there were holes, so we didn’t spend much time on the deck like we had hoped.

Nice little cabin

It was a great little cabin. Clean and pet friendly. The only real down side was the proximity of the other houses. Easy to find and check in was easy. This will definitely be a place I would visit again.

Quiet area. Perfect for us gals, as we were in town for a conference and were able to get away and relax in the evenings. Both beds were comfortable. Hosts were attentive to messages and very easy to work with…very accommodating.

Cozy and lovely!

We stayed for one night and I was very impressed by the cleanliness and thoughtful design of the entire place. It was very welcoming and quaint, from the mushroom night light to the well stocked hygiene products and fun LOTR decor. We didn’t have time to enjoy the wood burning stove or the hammock, but the beds were comfy and comforters were fluffy!

Cute little cabin getaway

We stayed here for a week hoping to take a little break in the mountains and it was lovely. The cabin in a quiet location away from major street noise and light. The stars glow at night from how clear the sky is. The location is great for groups that want to explore the nearby parks and trails. And the deer are adorable and really do come right up to you! The owners were super responsive and sweet, thanks for a great stay!

Nice enough cabin and was clean. My biggest complaint, which I didn't realize upon booking it, was the size of the shower.I'm guessing it is what normally fits in an RV. Perfect bath size for a toddler.

People with multiple larger dogs can come here and relax with them. Interior doors may get stuck if you try to close them all the way. But this is a cute quiet place not too far from a main road with wild life walking by the windows. I wish I could afford to stay here forever.

The cabin was clean but all of the doors needed some attention. The bathroom was super small and it was not a secluded cabin in the Forrest like the pictures made it look. There were other homes all around.

Peaceful persuit of happiness

If peace, quiet, nature, tranquility is your interest, this is it! 3 mornings straight at sunrise 2 to 6 deer walked within 20 ft of us sitting on deck, inc 2 fawns! Host is super, very helpful and quick to answer any question. We know anyone looking to r&r will appreciate this peaceful persuit of happiness!
