Train ride
We went on a train ride and just needed a place to lay our head at night. We did enjoy a fire both nights and the jacuzzi also. The place was easy to find and a nice little cabin.

Just what we needed
We wanted a get-away that was truly restful - get away from it all and spend quality time with each other. This was the perfect location for us to do as much or as little as we wanted. Check in was easy and the property was clean and impeccably maintained.

Overall good experience. Closer to the road than we were looking for. Even with distance to the road road noise was minimal and traffic was very light.

Quiet Setting
The hosts were wonderful. The area is more remote so do not expect a lot of service and availability to resources. No cell connection, TV service and slow Internet. I was able to do class work that was text based and the owners had a wide array of videos. We spent the time in the hot tub, watching movies we always talked about seeing and play board games. It was a relaxing time. We did venture out a day to go to the local Amish Market. In season vegetables and bakery items which were a nice addition to our meals. We did lose electricity due to a local thunderstorm but as the owner said wait a couple of hours and it will return which is what happened. If you are looking for a quiet time or close to whitewater rafting and hiking its the place to be.
