Beautiful place with everything you need for a quiet and comfortable stay away from the business of life.The cabin itself sits right next to a beautiful creek that has been meticulously maintained. Just above the creek there is a pond which has been stocked with fishfor catch and release fishing. We did see a couple different fish that were larger and several fish that still have some growing to do.The owner of this property has really done a great job all around and the attention to detail shows throughout the place.I really can’t say enough about how pleased we were during our stay.Everything was clean and well stocked.All necessary amenities were provided and the owner was very friendly, helpful and easy to communicate with.We had the opportunity to see some local wildlife while we were there, we had a nice campfire under the stars and of course the Jacuzzi was an added benefit which we appreciated.We will definitely come back to this location for future vacations.

Nice little cabin! This is a good cabin rental for your small group. Everything worked out well. The design isn’t as spacious as others we’ve stayed in. The grounds are wonderful. Unfortunately, the hot tub was not working when we stayed. Also a word of caution, the driveway is gravel and fairly steep. Bill, the owner, was great to work with.

Lovely little spot
The drive (for us) was easy, directions to the cabin were easy to follow, the property was clean and well-maintained, and the owner was very pleasant and cordial as he wished us well before we left. Couple of fun little nuggets for the reader...1) no dishwasher. Plan accordingly.2) no chain restaurants around, so expect to cook or grab food at a local spot, most of which were rated well, but we didn't eat out anywhere.3) ensure your vehicle has enough clearance, the road to the cabin is unfinished, but relatively smooth.Other than that, which isnt negative at all, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. 9.5/10, would recommend.

Serenity
This cabin was the perfect size for the two of us. It's equipped with everything you will need. Loved the wrap around porch with plenty of seating to choose from. Outdoor atmosphere was wonderful. Perfect place to unwind while listening to the creek and the frogs signing at the pond. Speaking of the pond we caught lots of small fish.

Away from Distractions
My husband and I enjoyed our time away from outside distractions to your cabin. The check in process was super easy especially since our plans changed and we arrived way later than we expected. The host was fast to respond to my questions before arrival and no further communication was needed. The nature view was so peaceful and relaxing. The cabin was the perfect size for 2. We will definitely consider returning here for another visit.

Great peaceful place and Super nice host
Cabin furniture is actually a bit more updated than the pictures. Great location next to a creek, the pond, great for walks, seeing nature and some wild life, by the firepit etc…The host is extremely nice and friendly. He offered to show us his farm and animals so the kids could see the cows and horses. There is another cabin called the lodge in the property (bigger cabin), but that is the only other people you see. It is extremely calm and peaceful at this place. The hot tub is nice a big, there is a propane grill, full kitchen, board games, and about everything you need stocked in the cabin.We really recommend this place for a calm getaway with the kids and the host (Mr. Bill) made it even better going out of his way to make our stay even more special.

Beautiful Escape
The communication from the owner was excellent. We arrived late in the evening and the directions to the cabin were very specific and accurate which made it easy to find. The cabin was well lit when we arrived which was very helpful. When we awoke the next morning, we observed a beautiful babbling creek with gentle waterfalls in a peaceful and private setting. We walked the vast property multiple times and soaked in the serenity of the sounds of nature. It was a beautiful escape and we highly recommend this property.
