Unique Stay in the Forest

Nice place to get away from city life, directly in the middle of the forest. Listing and photos are accurate. Nice property manager. I think the place is best suited for couples or for staying with a friend. Overall had a great time and definitely made for a unique experience!

Magic School Bus

The bus was very clean and the bed was comfortable. The 2 track to get back to it was rough, I wouldn't try to take a car back there. Overall we had a great stay and would definitely rent it again. Mike was quick to respond and very accommodating..
