While this was remote, the location is quite amazing! Perched on the top of a hill where you can see both the sun rise and sun set was the most beautiful setting. The rustic nature of the home was super cool with the custom chairs/benches adding to the charm. We had no real issues during our stay. The property manager was a super sweet person to talk to and provided some local tips.

Great location for my 2 sisters and our husbands to meet for a weekend get away since we were coming from OH, TN, & VA. The cabin and surrounding area are beautiful. We had plenty of room…nice that each bedroom had its own bathroom. Kitchen was well stocked with dishes, cookware, dish cloths/towels…everything you need. You will need to take things like zip lock bags, foil, plastic wrap. We cooked all our meals and had a relaxing weekend of good food and game time.The only minor negative is that I had not received cabin access info from the host by Friday morning. I messaged him and he called me and gave me the info I needed and also to let me know the caretaker would stop by after we arrived to make sure everything was in good order. Steve, the caretaker made us feel very welcome and gave us a lot of history of the area. We all agreed that we will definitely plan another stay in the future.
