Nice place for a quiet family get away.

Nice place for a quiet family get away. Very remote, we saw a bunch of turkeys and other wild life, and could hear coyotes howling in the distance. The firepit/play set area was great for both adults and kids. Plenty of space for a large family.

Restful Family Weekend

This house accommodates our family well with its many bedrooms and bathrooms, and large living room. We enjoyed visiting on the porch, around the fire outside, and on the swing-set.

Family vacation

This cabin was perfect for our annual family trip. We had 14 people with an age range from 2-62 years and a dog. The cabin was clean and plenty of rooms and seating for everyone. The kids had a blast on the swing set. I would stay here again.

Wonderful getaway from everything!

This was a great place to get away and enjoy a few days of family bonding. Even the teens talked and played games with everyone. The house was clean and thoughtfully planned for large groups with plenty of beds and plenty of seating inside and out! There were fans in every room making it very comfortable for sleeping. We would definitely stay here again!

Outstanding location for a guy's weekend

I just got back from an extended weekend at this camp with 14 other guys in their 30s and 40s. It was EXACTLY what we hoped for. Secluded out in the woods, plenty of space outside to do stuff, plenty of space inside to hang out, enough sleeping arrangements for all of us. Couldn't recommended high enough!

Secluded family cabin

Perfect cabin to accommodate multiple families. Nice open layout on first floor with kitchen, large table and livingroom allowed conversation during meal preps. Beautiful fire pit, large bundles of wood for only $5. Surrounded by woods. Only negative was there was not much close by and the mountain roads make travel take a very long time. The host was very responsive. I would recommend this cabin.
