Nice, clean place for family and kids
We arrived late and were happy to be met with clean sheets on the beds and clean overall. Cleanliness is most important to my wife and she had no complaints, which is rare in that regard. It has a nice, open, large room with a couch and TV for the boys. We enjoyed our stay. The owner is super accessible. I would definitely use it again.

Very peaceful
This property has good proximity to hiking destinations, food, gas and basic retail. However when you're at the cabin you'd never guess that. It's so quiet and secluded. The deck and rear room were particulary lovely especially if you have interest in birds. We didn't use so much of what we brought because so much was supplied for us. Very homey feel. Quite comfortable stay.

Wonderful
An absolutely wonderful place to stay! My father and I booked this cozy cabin to watch the solar eclipse. Tom and Susan were informative, clear in giving directions, and took communication to the next level. The cabin was so cozy it felt like home. The beds were firm and comfortable, the kitchen had everything we needed, the porch allowed us to relax at the end of the days, and the lake near by provided lots of entertainment. Everything was cutely decorated and gave the place some uniqueness. The area was quiet and the wildlife was neat. I’ve never seen a red headed woodpecker before this trip. It was definitely a trip to remember. Thank you for letting us rent this little piece of peace!

Quaint cabin in the woods
Overall this was a very cute cabin with nice views to the wooded area in the back. We were comfortable and enjoyed our stay. Our only complaint would be the doors in the cabin. The front door is very hard to close properly to lock it when you leave. You have to pull hard and lift up in order for the bolt to align. The door to the back patio is very difficult to close. The pocket door to the bathroom seems to be installed incorrectly or off its track or something, because it didn't close too smoothly either. Also, we couldn't find any extra bags for either of the trash cans, so if we stayed more than 2 days, we would've had to buy our own. I also recommend to anyone staying here to try and arrive before the sun goes down, because we had the hardest time finding the gravel drive at night when we arrived. Overall, it's a nice place and well priced, so I would recommend staying here for a quiet getaway near a lake.
