Restorative

The property is beautiful!!! So relaxing with a wide stream running along it and in back of the rustic cabin. Trails for hiking. If you want to get off the grid this is the place for you. The hosts were great as well!

Unplugged Peace and Quiet

Loved everything about our stay! I’ve booked several cabins over the years for weekend getaways with my partner and this is one of our favorites. We loved the elegance and simplicity of the place. The thought and details that went into the cabin decor can’t be beat. We truly felt like we took a step back in time before the internet ruined everything! It was perfect for a quiet and restful weekend. We’ll definitely be back.

Halloween stay

This is our second time staying and it was every bit as good. I cant recommend it highly enough. We built a roaring fire and listened to ghost stories after dinner. There is a trout stream on the property and perfect for a little fly fishing. My wife took many baths in the large claw footed tub. If you need to get away, look no further.

Paradise!

The stay was amazing, the property was a dream! I only wish we had more time to stay and relax at the beautiful cabin. I loved sitting on the back deck and listening to the creek! Oir son loved trying to catch a trout, no luck though. My wife loved taking pictures of everything on the property, especially the covered bridge.

Relaxing cabin by the creek!

Loved our stay at this beautiful cabin by the creek! The cabin made you feel like you’ve gone back in time! It was so nice to disconnect from everything and just enjoy the beautiful grounds and pond! We had everything we needed and the bed was so comfy too! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful place and we look forward to returning! Bob and LuAnn Fisher

Relaxing in Paradise

My wife, dogs and I had an amazing getaway . We spent most of our time relaxing and taking in all the amazing scenery. We made several trips to many national parks that weren’t very far away seeing many waterfalls and other beautiful sceneries. Ate some delicious food and had wonderful conversations with friendly patrons and staff at several local restaurants. Our favorite was Ms. Lois’ Restaurant.

Bath by the creek

This was a very unique stay. From the wood stove and fireplace to the babbling creek and bath. We had a great relaxing stay and appreciated the time to disconnect. Like stepping back in time with modern conveniences.

Can't get enough

This was our 3rd time staying here, we love it so much! There are so many things to do in the area...but this property is perfect to just unplug and relax. We brought our dog this time and he enjoyed playing with the property ambassador, Winter, a yellow lab! The property is so peaceful, enjoy coffee and meals on the porch or bridge and just listen to the sounds of the creek!

Amazing place!

Great on the creek location. The rushing waters just relax you. Beautifully done rustic cabin, everything you need from gliders, lounge chairs hovering over the waters edge to coffee makers and fans. The huge tub and cozy bathroom was so peaceful we wanted to blow up a mattress and sleep there. It was perfect for our dog too, who immediately ran to the creek, splashed and then hopped through the open fields. If you want to unplug for awhile, cozy up to a campfire, and unwind. You found it. Thanks, Kyle, Jill and Berklie

A step back in time

The property has a magical element that is amazing. The ease and simplicity of the cabin, the stream and the pond makes it hard to leave. We did take a queen air mattress because one double was not enough for us. Our teenagers slept on the creek side porch. We also took a griddle for breakfast and brought food in. We did NOT use the wood fired oven but was very intrigued by it.

This property was just what the doctor ordered for serenity and solitude! The opportunity to have my dog there to be able to run free and enjoy. The waters was an added bonus. The property is beautiful and I would love to stay again!

Our family has truly enjoyed this cabin and property. The kids love swimming onsite in the swimming hole, fishing in the creek (we stock regularly), and I personally enjoy reading and doing yoga on the deck. We are happy to share this little piece of heaven to the occasional rental. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
