Nice little cabin! This is a good cabin rental for your small group. Everything worked out well. The design isn’t as spacious as others we’ve stayed in. The grounds are wonderful. Unfortunately, the hot tub was not working when we stayed. Also a word of caution, the driveway is gravel and fairly steep. Bill, the owner, was great to work with.

Perfect cabin rental

The location is beautiful ❤️ Cabin was clean and well maintained. Bring air mattresses and enjoy the cozy loft for sleeping. Fish by the pond, relax by the fire pit, or soak in the hot tub. Owner was kind and a joy to work with. We enjoyed our stay and highly recommend for others!

Absolutely Loved Our Stay

Location is beautiful, quiet, and serene. The cabin was neat, clean and had everything we needed for a pleasant stay. Our host, Bill Elliott, was most gracious and accommodating. Would recommend to friends and go again ourselves.

Lovely little spot

The drive (for us) was easy, directions to the cabin were easy to follow, the property was clean and well-maintained, and the owner was very pleasant and cordial as he wished us well before we left. Couple of fun little nuggets for the reader...1) no dishwasher. Plan accordingly.2) no chain restaurants around, so expect to cook or grab food at a local spot, most of which were rated well, but we didn't eat out anywhere.3) ensure your vehicle has enough clearance, the road to the cabin is unfinished, but relatively smooth.Other than that, which isnt negative at all, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. 9.5/10, would recommend.
