Our stay was truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and at peace. This cabin was the perfect escape to slow down, enjoy quality time together, and appreciate the simple beauty of being surrounded by nature. We made wonderful memories playing board games, walking around the lake, and enjoying the peaceful moments that this beautiful place offered. The cabin was clean, cozy, and felt like a home away from home. We are so grateful for the opportunity to stay here and experience such a special place. Thank you for creating a space where people can relax, reconnect, and make lasting memories. We truly look forward to returning again soon! ~Ana and Family (all from Florida)

It was a charming cabin on the side of the mountain with a great deck out front to sit and chat. It was a very unique place to stay. We enjoyed it and it was perfect for what we needed. The price was good. The communication before the trip was good. Now for the improvements needed. And mind you, we’re four guys and none of this really bothered us, but had our wives been there, we would have heard about it. The exterior needs a pressure washing. Most of the wood outside — the decks, the stairs — needs to be replaced. They are shaky. Even some banisters inside the house need to be firmed up as they wouldn’t hold if somebody leaned on them. There was no hairdryer in the bathrooms, no shampoo and nowhere to put your stuff in the showers. A couple of the rooms had overcomplicated light switches that we couldn’t figure out. Some musty smells downstairs probably because of all the greenery around the cabin, which is what made it so charming. Again, I would go there again if it was the guys, but I wouldn’t bring a family there
