Great Stay in Quiet Cabin next to Stream
Very nice clean cabin set back from main roads. Quiet with the only the sound of the small stream next to cabin. Set back from main road about a mile, but easy access.

This place is absolutely delightful! We loved the privacy, and proximity to parks and mountain trails. It is right next to a gurgling stream and has a great setup for a bonfire. The interior has everything you could need for a fun, cozy vacation.

We had an absolutely amazing time. There were so many thoughtful aspects put into the property from things you may have forgotten to things to do. It was so peaceful and homey. Everything was spotless and clean. We will be back for a summer trip. The snow we got to see was the cherry on top of the trip.

Relaxing, Refreshing Get Away
We had a wonderful stay in this lovely, comfortable cabin. We loved the babbling brook, the nightly campfires, breakfast and lunch on the front porch, the swing, the beautiful flowers and nicely kept lawn, the peace and quiet, the sweet welcoming treats of preserves and cookies, the comfortable bed, and exploring the area. Our host was very responsive and has thought of so many nice little touches to make it an easy, enjoyable stay.

The Perfect Cabin!
Everything about the cabin was great! Its beautiful, neat, comfortable and clean. Sitting on the front porch drinking coffee in the morning listening to the creek and we saw a family of deer on several days. Nothing bad to say about our experience here. Will definately be back!

Weekend Heaven
The cabin was beautiful, clean, and just what we were hoping for. The seclusion makes for great star gazing and animal watching, I was fortunate to have my coffee on the porch while watching deer. The wood fireplace was probably my favorite part. We definitely plan on using the cabin more in the future. Dinah was a fantastic host and was easy to contact/communicate with!
