We loved this house! It was clean, easy to find, easy to get in and was the perfect size for our trip. I thought the kitchen was well appointed and had everything we needed. We were able to bring our pups with us and we were so appreciative that they were able to join us. We would absolutely rent this property again and look forward to our next trip to Arnold!

Perfect Weekend Getaway

This was our fourth time staying at this property. We loved our stay. The cabin had everything we needed. The timing was perfect; we got overnight snow two nights in a row and the kids were able to play and sled in the yard. We will definitely be returning in the future.

The location was fantastic! And, we were pleasantly surprised with the quality of the grocery store and restaurants within 5-10 min. of the cottage. While it was quiet and comfortable for 2, if we had had our family, there was not really a place for people to sit inside and play board games or chat (although the island did have a pull-out). Communication with the owner was great; but, unless I missed something, we were required to either put down a very steep deposit or purchase insurance, neither of which were good options for us. Overall, while simple, it met all our needs!

Beautiful Condo

I have rented a lot of lovely places in Arnold, but somehow I never came upon this place. It’s a beautiful place, lots of amenities, and a perfect place to stay with friends or family. I will definitely be booking here again. Thank Bill for sharing your place with us!

Cabin in the woods

The cabin was very cute- looked recently remodeled inside. The kitchen was gorgeous and was opened to the living room. The deck was nice to sit on. The cabin had a nice secluded feel- empty lot on both sides of the cabin. We used the back yard to throw the ball for our dog.
