The cabin was lovely and well stocked to meet our needs. We were a little put off by all the LED lights at night - especially right next to the bed. Not sure anything can be done about that, though. We live on a farm and enjoy darkness at night . Other than that we truly enjoyed our stay. Thank you!!

First retirement vacation

We were impressed with the story of how this cabin came to life by an individual named Bob and how the new owner(s), Cathie continued his dream project. It was sad to hear of Bobs passing, however, the cabin was completed and it is a wonderful dwelling and has so much spirit.

Bob's Cabin in the Woods

Everything about this place was phenomenal...Peaceful, quiet, and relaxing..... And our host was just as awesome with communication and we loved reading about the history of Bob and the cabin...Sitting on the porch swing with the wife, drinking coffee, and petting Tiki, Bob's yellow lab... It just don't get any better....We will definitely be returning for another relaxing visit....

Relaxing

Beautiful cabin and property. Quiet and peaceful. All the amenities provided and more. We brought our dog and was pleased to see a doggie door to outside fenced kennel for her to come and go as needed. The roads/driveway to the cabin from main road have thick loose gravel. We had trailered our motorcycles so unable to ride them to and from cabin. However we found plenty of spots to park and unload to ride each day. No problem taking trailer up to property with plenty of room to pull in and out. So many thoughtful items left around the inside and outside of the cabin. Thank you so much for providing a wonderful place for us to relax.

Comfortable rustic getaway

A historically rustic cabin with modern amenities that make it very comfortable. Cozy but not cramped…well appointed to make it a safe, accessible and a very enjoyable venue. Conveniently located to the lake and town but, as the name implies, tucked remotely in the woods.

Short get a way

We enjoyed the peaceful cabin and its surroundings. A great area to be in for short ventures to small towns . The fall foliage was awesome and we seen about ten deer strolling through in the evening. Lots of squirrels getting ready to bed down for colder weather. Would love to come back in spring or summer. 💯 recommend.

Birthday & anniversary weekend

Very clean and well stocked. Cathy had snacks, coffee pods and lots of miscellaneous items for use if needed. Super communication and simple check in. Really appreciated the album about the history of the cabin/builder and also the notebook with helpful hints 😁. The leaves and yard were beautiful this fall, with deer frequenting the front yard daily. This porch is amazing! Look forward to spending a long weekend here again.

Nice, peaceful getaway

We loved our stay in the Cabin in the Woods. The cabin was perfect for two people. It was secluded but also close to the lake. Our only complaint would be the gravel road and driveway up to the cabin. We brought our boat and if we didn’t have 4 wheel drive, it would have been a struggle or maybe not possible to get up the drive to the cabin.

Perfect getaway for 2

Everything is just fantastic about this property. The owners attention to details in everything from welcoming you, to the cabin being stuffed with treats, soap, creams, tools, bug-spray etc. The joy of just sitting on the porch as the wildlife wakes up around you. The hummingbird feeder right in front of you adds to the joy. EVERYTHING about this stay was just spot on. The cabin is for 2 adults, nothing more. And for 2 adults it is nothing short of spectacular. Be prepared for doing nothing and simply relaxing. You have to drive to get to anything. That also means there is no noice other than the wilderness (except the occational “extra large truck with extra large mufler” in the distance.) Truely a gem, and truely fantastic service.
