We arrived early to our rental (didn't even think about a time change), we actually met the cleaning lady (very nice and friendly) just leaving. She told us to let Bill know we were there early, which we did, Bill is very prompt with messages. We were very much impressed with this cabin, very clean, spacious and very nicely decorated.Comfy beds and pillows, everything you need for your stay except your groceries. Love that we had a washer and dryer, no need to overpack. The firepit was nice, didn't get a chance to use the swing on the wrap-around deck, we were too busy chasing waterfalls. We did sit out on the front porch every morning with our coffees, and at night listening for the whippoorwill and also hearing the water feature so peaceful and quiet.Did manage to take the trail out the back door to the Overlook deck, we ran out of time to sit out there with the nice propane fire pit table. It's a bit of a hike, but take your time, it's beautiful! There's also a composting outhouse out there if needed!All in all this is the perfect rental for 2 or 4 people. The first bedroom has the ensuite with a really nice shower, the other bathroom is in the hall with the tub (hand held shower head) is a great place to soak after a long hike!

I cannot tell you how many times we walked around this cabin and said out loud “Oh my gosh, this is so cool and such a beautiful cabin!!”. I would definitely book this cabin again, even if only for a day but preferably for a whole week because it was such a peaceful and quiet place.

A wonderful secluded restful cabin. Everything was top notch and the host helped us with a scheduling issue. Can not say enough good things about the property. Would not hesitate to book again if we goo back to the area.
