Trout fishing

We had a blast fishing out back and Caledonia. The place was cozy and easy to find. The trash collection was confusing so maybe rewrite it on instruction page. I loved my king bed and the 2 kids loved the bunk beds.

Charming Log Cabin

Maybe closer to 4.5 stars rating. We stayed at this property for 4 nights. We spent most of our time at Gettysburg, which was only a 20 min. drive or so away. We also hiked at Cunningham Falls State Park in Maryland which was also less than a half hour away. And we made a surprise stop at the Utz factory store 20 mins. away. So the location was good for our activities. The property is on a big creek/small river and we saw some ducks, but didn't catch any fish. It was too cold to really enjoy any of the outdoor amenities, Spring is a tricky time of year. The kitchen had everything we needed and we were surprised there were two full bathrooms as the house isn't that large, so that was nice. We were comfortable during our stay. Brenda was very available to answer a couple of questions we had.

Lovely cabin for getaway

The cabin is beautiful, with updated kitchen and baths that don’t diminish its antique charm. We just loved the place. My husband had fun catching 7 fish in just 45 minutes. The host was always responsive. Nice getaway.

Perfect Place to Spend the Week!

The cabin is beautiful and friendly, and has everything you need to enjoy your stay. Unfortunately we happened to be there during Hurricane Deb so we didn't get to paddle the creek, but enjoyed our stay nonetheless. The owner is easy to communicate with and friendly. We were able to enjoy sightseeing in Gettysburg and then could come back to a relaxing , comfy home after.

This is a GREAT place to stay!

My wife, teenaged step-son, his friend, and I stayed at the cabin for 3 nights. This is a very well kept building stocked with just about everything you need for and enjoyable trip. We were visiti Gettysburg (about 25 minutes away) and could not have found a better place to stay.

Relaxing property

Great stay at cabin house. Clean and easy to get to. We did some kayaking which we all enjoyed. The water was stagnant for fishing because of the lack of rain. We all enjoyed sitting outside and making a fire. Dog loved the deck and rope tied on the deck made it easy to bring her in and out. Thank you to the owners.

Amazing mini-vacation

Had a wonderful stay in Brenda’s cabin. We wanted for nothing. Close to all amenities and very peaceful. Gettysburg museum is close by and also went to Union Mills, Maryland for a Civil War reenactment. Would definitely recommend!

Wonderful Trip and House

House is great location and very peaceful; allowing us to recharge after a long school year. Kids had a great time playing in the yard and enjoying the creek. Host could not have been more helpful and communicative. Will definitely recommend and stay here again.

Perfect Vacation Getaway

We could not have found a more perfect place to stay on our trip to Pennsylvania! Everything you could need was available at the cabin and very clean. Location was great and close to everything we wanted to do, plus the creek in the back was so peaceful. We enjoyed some kayaking one afternoon, as well as the firepit. Brenda was the perfect host! We hope to visit again one day and have already highly recommended to friends! You won't be disappointed with this cabin!

A Little Slice of History

This place is wonderful! It is a vacation destination all by itself. There are things to do outside on the water along with the firepit. Wish we were younger to have taken advantage of it. Cabin is so unique that it was enjoyable to just experience it. Thank you so much for sharing it with others.

Relaxing stay near Gettysburg

Had a nice time during our 2nd stay at this home. Very convenient to Gettysburg with great restaurants and shopping along with touring the battlefield. German Christmas Haus in New Oxford also worth a visit. Only complaint was that the weather was horrible!

River Relaxation

Mom 91, Sister 67, Brother 64, Sister ( Me) 61. Beautiful rustic log home with all modern updates, in a lovely rural location, right on the creek. Plenty of space to spread out and relax. Bed in master bedroom very comfortable. Other bedroom has twin cot with bunk beds, that we did not use due to comfort reasons. There were six seating options on the first floor that were recliners. House was well equipped with everything we needed. We would definitely stay again when in the area.

Cozy Cabin with a View

We enjoyed our stay at the log cabin. The view from the back room and deck are very pretty overlooking the water. We stayed in November so unfortunately we were not able to use all the outdoor amenities, but they were there and in good condition. The house was mostly clean and the furniture downstairs was comfortable to enjoy family time. There are 2 bedrooms upstairs and the master suite is a nice size with a comfortable king bed. The 2nd bedroom has a bunkbed but the bottom bunk is directly on the floor and the other bed in the room is actually a cot so it worked great for our 8 year old grandson, but it was a bit uncomfortable for our 19 yr old son who was sharing the room with him. The 2nd bedroom is best for younger sleepers. The cabin has 2 big full bathrooms which made it nice when getting ready each morning. Because we were gone each day visiting with family, we did not use the kitchen much, but it was fully stocked with everything you would need to cook meals. Our host was super kind and easily reachable and available if we had needed her.
