Great Getaway Spot

The cabin and grounds really were absolutely perfect. We loved hanging out at the fire pit in the back yard which even came with a nice supply of firewood. The kitchen was very well stocked with all the necessary utensils along with the fridge having everything needed for morning breakfast

Beautiful quiet cabin

We loved our weekend stay at the cabin. The cabin was beautiful - you can tell a lot of love and hard work went into each detail. Carl met us when we arrived and walked us through the lighting and Bluetooth speakers. The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed. We used the fire pit once and appreciated having firewood available. The bed was also nice and comfortable. The cabin is located in a quiet neighborhood and felt very secluded. It was perfect for our anniversary getaway. We will definitely consider staying here again!
