Fall Greatness
The property is just as pictured. Loved the Adirondack feel with all the furniture. Kitchen is very spacious and well equipped. Bedrooms also were very spacious. We all loved the comfortable couches in living area. Our party included four adults and two children. Plenty of room for everyone. Will definitely return!

Very nice stay
This was a very nice cabin. Everything was set up well and was very clean. We had a fire at the fire ring one night, saw some deer that were virtually tame, enjoyed watching the chipmunks and squirrels, and relaxed around the cabin when we weren't busy in Old Forge.

Fourth Time as Amazing as the First
This was our fourth stay at this property and it was another amazing stay. The home is just beautiful and perfect for our family. We also have family that stays in the nearby campground when we come to town and this home has plenty of space for us to host them for meals and playing games. The location is perfect because you are surrounded by woods but only a minute from town.Jody and Brian are so kind and helpful and this is definitely our home away from home.

Family Getaway
We had a great week away in our favorite area to visit. The cabin was cozy with a giant kitchen and plenty of cookware that we made food all week. The boys lived the bunk beds and we enjoyed the layout of the cabin so the sleeping was not disturbed by laundry.Great place to stay that is well maintained

Family reunion
We attended a family reunion in Inlet and this was the perfect spot for us. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely secluded camp in Old Forge. The cabin was comfortable for our family for the week. The kitchen had everything we needed for our trip. We appreciated Jody's quick responses to questions. But most of all, the beds were comfortable for our backs. That was wonderful. I highly recommend this property!!!!

Perfection in Old Forge
This property is amazing. Great log cabin that is spacious and affordable. Plenty of land for small hiking with kids or dogs and fire pit area. Another bonus is the porch sitting up high and relaxing views. Great access to Trail 4 for hiking and a short walk to the water on Hollywood.
