Lovely weekend. Was sad the outlets didn’t work, but understand with the solar powered electricity, with our experiencing rain/cloudy skies most of the time, we certainly used a lot of battery. I personally enjoyed the remoteness—-but the young in didn’t so much.
I enjoy staying in remote areas every vacation. I chose this property because of its location and the view. But my family and I couldn’t enjoy staying here. No shower and very old type toilet made us worn out. I think the timing was bad. The temperature was too low to swim outside. So we left this cabin earlier than the booked date. So sad.
Ellen's Cabin is a gread off-grid getaway with the comforts of home
We had a great weekend at Ellen's cabin. It is very private and a beautiful location. Although it is off-grid, it has a refrigerator and 12V lights, so it is very convenient and comfortable. Everything we needed was in it's place and the cabin was very clean. The beds were a bit hard, but we were roughing it, so it was ok. Had a very relaxing time.
What a wonderful place to be in nature. We loved thos place and the access to hiking, water and just breathing. We enjoyed outdoor fires every night and describe the cabin as "just plain cute"!
I stayed at this beautiful cabin last weekend and absolutely was floored. They had everything I needed and it was very cozy and inviting. I got to see a bunch of fireflies dancing in the night sky on my last evening there. I definitely recommend staying at this cabin if you like to be in the middle of the woods and enjoy the sound of Nature. Will be booking this cabin again for the Fall!!
