Perfect Setting
We can’t say enough about this property & the hosts. It is super clean, well-appointed, and inviting. Bed & furniture was comfortable, good lighting throughout, strong WiFi & the kitchen had everything needed. Appliances are new & the hosts did a fantastic job putting the house & property together. We had the pleasure of meeting hosts Bill & Erin and pride in their property is apparent & well-deserved. Location is remote but close enough to the state park & waterfalls. If you’re looking for a place to kick back, relax & not worry about much of anything, this property is it! We also appreciated that the property & house weren’t surrounded by cameras like many other VRBO locations. Thanks to our hosts for helping to make our 3-day get-away perfect.

Remarkable Retreat!!
Wonderful cabin in a great location with all of the amenities you could possibly need. Very well kept and updated as well as very clean. This was the cleanest rental we have ever stayed in! Fire pits are always a must for us and this one was awesome and spacious with a well lit path leading to it with comfortable seating as well. The owners Bill and Erin were very friendly and gracious hosts offering to give us a tour of the beautiful property. The one mile hiking trail through the woods to the deck that overlooks the mountains is easy with gentle slopes and very well worth the walk. Gorgeous view!! We will definitely be making a return visit in the near future. Thank you Bill and Erin for sharing such a wonderful place. Our stay was relaxing and much needed.

Wonderful Stay!
I will start out by saying that this rental was the cleanest VRBO that we have ever stayed in! The hosts went above and beyond to make our stay the wonderful!! The cabin had everything we needed and it was close proximity to several state parks which were beautiful! Erin and Bill treated us as if we were old friends. We felt extremely welcomed! They took us on a couple of UTV rides to familiarize us with the property and to allow us to experience a beautiful sunset!! One day, we never left the property and were able to hike 4 miles just walking on their trails! This was one of the most relaxing yet adventurous vacations we have had. I almost forget, we were able to be the first to try out their new and beautiful firepit! We do hope that we will be able to visit again sometime! I highly recommend this rental!!!
