We spent 3 days after are wedding and it was perfect, surrounded by the forest nothing else. Communication with host was excellent, cabin was even better in person, we were a little worried about the solar system in the beginning, if we would run into any issues (we have never used one before) but the host put in a lot of effort on labeling and printing out documents to explain how to use. We definitely recommend this place

The cabin was great! Our dog was so worn out from all the walks and hikes. She slept most of the 6 hour drive home.

We spent an absolutely amazing week here. The cabin is lovely, very clean, with lots of natural light. Property is in the woods, with perfectly sized cleared area to enjoy the sun. We loved every part, gazebo, deck, fire pit. Each one has its own charm. It is a very short walk to the York river - a perfect spot with a fire pit and muskoka chairs, our favorite place to chill out by the river. Hailee is an amazing host. Easy to communicate, very responsive, providing clear information. We are looking forward to coming back
