Absolutely wonderful - again!

We had a wonderful time at this charming cabin nestled in the woods on the side of a mountain, again. Marilyn is the best host - quickly responsive, welcoming, thoughtful and helpful. The cabin is cozy and well appointed and has a lovely deck that lets you sit and enjoy a great view from up high amongst the boughs of the hemlocks, situated perfectly for the beautiful sunsets. Stores are within a 10-15 minute drive so we really had everything we needed along with the most restful stay. We'll be back again soon!

Lovely, peaceful spot

Lisa's location is wonderful! Serenity is the perfect name for this place. The only sounds for the most part are the birds and the breeze. The cabin is small but it had everything we needed. The deck is the perfect place for a morning cup of coffee or an afternoon book. We took full advantage of the trails and the fact that we were the only ones there and hiked all over the property. We liked it so much that we are now looking for a house in the area. The fact that Lisa has spent the past 30 years maintaining, preserving and developing this 138 acre paradise is very impressive, and makes the place even more special. I highly recommend this spot to all nature lovers!!

A getaway called 'Serenity'

The place is awesome! The sunset through the windows, the cozy atmosphere of the cottage, the cute little bathroom, the hammocks, the trails - altogether a great place to go. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!!

Perfect relaxing

It was located in the perfect location. Private and relaxing with Mother Nature sounds and views that were breathtaking. It was close enough for a drive into the little town to get groceries and enjoy an ice cream. The beds were comfy and the shower water pressure was great. Cabin lay out was very roomy, fresh and clean. The fire pit was nice to sit around on the cool nights. Sad that we didn’t book for a longer stay but maybe one day we can book again if ever out traveling that way. Thank you Marilyn for being a fabulous host and sharing your serenity space with us.

Perfect Communing with Nature

Communing with nature in this perfect setting was just what I needed. This was a Wonderful getaway to rest & reset after losing my mom. Host was kind, prompt & extended extra hospitality. This cabin is clean, secluded, & surrounded by beautiful woods with walking trails that led to another incredible property with marvels of its own. Back deck provided gorgeous views & was perfect for morning coffee, yoga, evening sunsets or just listening to the crickets, frogs & birds. Will def be back!

Quiet Getaway

My husband and I and our dog had a wonderful stay at this property. We would’ve been happy spending the entire time on the deck but we did take many hikes in the woods. Because it was mid week we were lucky enough to have the trails to ourselves and never saw any other people. We used the fire pit both nights and even when we were inside the many large windows made it feel like we were still out in nature. We hope to come back again in the future!
