We both loved the property and views from the porch. We saw deer everyday and enjoyed watching the wood stove in the evening. The cabin had everything we needed and was just what we were looking for.
Had a great stay, dogs had a blast! Hosts were wonderful. Had some car trouble when trying to leave for home, and they called us immediately to see if they could help! (They were at church)
Enjoyed everything cabin had to offer. Front porch sittin or campfire in the fire ring outside. Dogs enjoyed the cabin too. Close to wineries and hiking. Highly recommend, plan to come back.
My husband and I had an absolutely lovely time at Maple Ridge Cabin. It has everything you need AND no WiFi or TV for distractions. Plus our dog was welcome and he really enjoyed getting to be out in nature and off leash. Thank you for a great getaway!
The property was nice, clean and the listing was very accurate. The host was very responsive. We had a great time. Very laid back!!!! Great location!!!

This property is setup inthe country on some farm property. It is secluded, so there are a few neighbors a few acres away, and a paved road, gravel drive. The bedroom loft requires a ladder instead of stairs, so if you get up from bed often that could be inconvenient.
I dislike the use of IoT and other data technology. While this is booked as a cabin, it has full bath and kitchen, A/C, and it was well furnished. You may need to bring extra linens, not sure how it works for a long stay. It is set up more like a small apartment than a rustic cabin. The amount of tech humming made this a displeasing stay, and I spent time sleeping in my car.
I think individuals and property owners act like total creeps whether they are data hunting their customers, or if its part of the hospitality data pools, or that is society just hunting for data prey, being wrong and creepy, and reinforcing the stereotype of evil discriminating property owners.
I will not book again because of the electrical components used in the building making me sick, and because of the antagonistic behavior of the property manager in regards to data stalking.
