Please note: There is a 13 night limit on reservations per local regulations. Reservations over 13 nights are prohibited and cannot be honored.

Secluded and private, this wonderful getaway is just the place to get some much-deserved rest and relaxation away from it all. This home is perfect for outdoorsy groups, as trails and parks are within walking distance of the front door. When you aren't exploring the beautiful landscape, downtime at home base will be a highlight of the trip, as everyone can spend time together on the back porch telling stories or gather around the firepit for a nostalgic night roasting s'mores! Preparing meals will be a breeze in the fully equipped kitchen, so stock up the fridge and bring along some favorite recipes. When everyone is tuckered out from full days, make a heaping bowl of popcorn, sprawl out on one of the three couches, and enjoy a movie night until everyone dozes off for the night.

Great location, bigger than expected
This place was clean, very close to Swallow Falls and bigger than expected. Check-in and out was easy. There is a little play area for smaller kids and the back porch is really nice with a porch swing.

Great location with many amenities
We had a good experience booking this property through VRBO. Couple minor house repair issues noticed but nothing that affected our stay at all. Was great for the long weekend getaway we had with my family and friends.

No internet or cell service
When I booked this place I assumed there would be internet and cell service. This should be explicitly called out in the description as it is 2022 and most would consider this a basic necessity. This was our first time to the area and researching grocery stores or bars to go to as well as directions was extremely difficult with no WiFi or service (Verizon).

Very clean and close to State Parks
Very clean and well maintained property. Great furniture and well stocked with essentials. Only drawback is the cabin is located just off the main road. However, main access if from the rear. Rear yard backs to woods for wildlife viewing. You can easily walk to Swallow Falls State Park. I would definitely stay again.

Loved everything about our property. Location to where we were wanting to be. Activities. The cabin itself was perfect and exactly what was described. My only criticism is all the fees and taxes. Maybe they could be explained a little more thoroughly and I felt a little excessive. Totally recommend and we plan on a return trip(s)!

Great mountain cabin
This was a great place for our family of 5 during our visit to Wisp for skiing. An easy drive to the slopes and a very comfortable home to cook dinners and relax at night in front of the fire!

The perfect getaway. Walking distance to swallow falls!
Clean! Beautiful! Peaceful! Nearby the beautiful falls to swim under, and to end the night with a beautiful fire pit for s’mores and family relaxing! Everything was perfect! The owner was bringing us a new trash can to sit on the beautiful patio. We stopped him for a nice little conversation about bears that have been seen. We so very much enjoyed our brief visit from the owner. It’s so relaxing and quiet!

Great place to relax!
We stayed in cabin 4 with our two teenage boys. The cabin was clean and well taken care of. We loved having campfires in the evening at the fire pit and drinking coffee on the front porch in the morning. Located close to Swallow Falls and great for hiking right from the cabin. Definitely would stay here again.

Beautiful cabin with all your needs
We had a beautiful stay in our cabin. The place was perfect for us two adults and our two children. There was enough space for all of us to enjoy the home living while being able to camp and enjoy the outdoors. This place is super close to the swallow falls, the Herrington manor state park, and deep creek. The cabin was very clean and stocked for all our needs. The only downfall is that it isn’t very secluded, it is close to the neighboring cabins and is close to a well traveled road. A major plus is the neighbors dog is a great little friendly present, he spent a lot of time visiting the girls. The property manager is a very sweet lady as well, we met her upon check in and she was tremendously friendly!
