The hosts were extremely friendly with excellent communication. The cottage was clean and our stay was very pleasant and quiet. The cottage was equipped with everything needed for a relaxing stay away from the daily chaos. The fresh eggs, coffee and bread were an added bonus. The fire pit with plenty of wood supplied was perfect for relaxing evenings outside with a glass of wine. We will definitely consider staying there in the future.

Clean, Friendly, Isolated!

Property at large was gorgeous with lots of space to explore, and the cabin was beautiful and clean. Owners were very communicative and understanding, both when our plans changed and during the stay, but left us enough space to feel like we were alone with the nature.

Beautiful Slice of Heaven

We wish we could have stayed longer! Beautiful, extremely private trip. Host went above and beyond with little things left for us to enjoy. A loaf of bread, apples, etc. We will definitely be back sometime when it is much warmer with no snow so we can enjoy the property!

Beautiful place. Very clean and well stocked!

Place is beautiful and very clean. Only issue was the road leading back to the property. It's a rough one lane gravel road. Loved our stay and would definitely recommend, just be aware that it's a pretty rough road getting to the property.
