Perfect base for local activities
Wonderful cabin near West Branch providing a perfect base for area activities. Cabin was clean, and fully met our needs for an extended weekend stay. The price was a good value and the published listing was accurate. Exceptional communication and responsiveness by the host. Cant wait to visit again!

Secluded and quiet
House was set in wooded area and nicely secluded. Nice fire pit and deck furniture allowed us a couple dinners outside. Quiet neighbors and house was clean. Had the amenities listed in description. Communication with property manager was excellent. If looking to fish you will need to choose another property as the Secord dam is not yet fixed and lake bed was all grass and weeds.

End of summer getaway
This is the second time we've stayed at this cabin and this time waa even better than the first time we stayed there. I'll say we've stayed at a few different places through the years and this is one of the best places we've stayed at. We can't wait until next year to come around so we can stay there again. The place has everything you could ask for stocked in it. The bedding is super clean and comfortable. If you are looking for a nice getaway I would highly recommend it.

Quiet cabin in the woods
Quaint little cabin off the beaten path. Just what we were looking for. Do wish it had a smart TV so we could have some streaming options to watch TV. But we made due with the dvd movies.

Peaceful Getaway
The property was very quiet and private and the cabin stocked with many essentials we could use. Although the water level was low, the view was still very pretty and I would recommend this location to anyone looking for a weekend to unplug and relax. Bobby was a great communicator as well, making sure that everything was up to our standards and answered any questions we had.

Sometimes you show up at these places and they are not as nice as the pics. This place is a lot nicer than the pics! We loved it and had a great time disconnecting and making memories. I will definitely be back.

Exceptional Getaway!
Our stay was incredible comfortable and the listing was spot-on. The property is situated on a gorgeous spot by a lake and is surrounded by large, gorgeous trees, plenty of greenery and the sounds of the wildlife made the stay (especially the mornings) even better. There is even a washer and dryer onsite that comes in very handy, especially if you take the time to explore the local parks and preserves. The property manager is especially wonderful! He made sure an item i left behind got mailed back to me, which I'm so grateful for! Do not hesitate to book this property, you will not be disappointed!

The one and only thing I can say negative is that there is no internet because in this area it's just plain not available. Cell service is hit-and-miss as well. Other than that, this home is cozy, very clean and well kept, and very comfortable.

Pictures inaccurate and not "lakefront"
There's issues with the dam so the pictures of the cabin are completely inaccurate and honestly shouldn't be posted with this listing. It's the equivalent of posting a picture of a fridge in the kitchen and then not having a fridge present.

Amazing!
The property was beautiful! The dogs had a great time and me and my husband relaxed and watched DVDs. Bond fires were nice and the town was so cute! Not a whole lot to do around there but we just stayed inside and watched movies. We liked it was in the woods but town just did not have alot of activities for us to do since my husband is on weight bearing restriction but that didnt ruin anything! I loved that we were able to bring my dogs it made me less stressed having to hire a sitter!
