This little cabin was the perfect weekend getaway for my husband and I! It was very clean and we were provided with all the utensils and dishes we needed. The host was also very easy to communicate with. Love the outdoor shower as well!

This was exactly what I was looking for. A few nights of campfire cooking - the quiet of the woods - a comfortable bed - What more could you want? Becca outdid every VRBO host with a welcoming attitude, coffee and pastries (and fresh eggs!) in the mornings - she even did my dishes so I wouldn’t have to spend my vacation time cleaning. Just a lovely stay for anyone looking for an unplugged, quiet weekend - camping but with a bed, a roof, and a helpful host. I definitely intend to be back soon.

This was the perfect stop for me and my pugs. I was traveling through, and it was a gem to find such a comfy spot for one (or two if you need a romantic get away). Hosts were super friendly and easy to talk to. My pugs loved the chickens and I loved the peace and quiet of the wind flowing through the trees. The pictures don’t do it justice, it is rustic, but comfortable.
