We loved our stay at August Schmidt. We have stayed here several times before. It is incredibly peaceful and quaint. We did not use the hot tub this visit but have used it in the past. We will definitely come back

The cabin was so nice. The location is perfect for a romantic getaway. If you want a secluded, private getaway, this is the place Lots of wildlife to see outside your window. Deer every day came out to eat. Very nice rustic decor and clean. We look forward to staying there again. The hosts are very lovely prople.
