Place was a perfect basecamp for our excursions.

When we found this little piece of heaven, the price was what we could afford. After reading the descriptions of what was available, we still brought food to cook because we knew there was an electric grill which worked out well for us.Sitting on the toilet sideways was weird, lol.The outdoor propane fire pit was really enjoyable first night we got there. Seeing a buck deer bounce through while having coffee in the morning was awesome and seeing turkeys in near by area.This was just a little too small for us in the amount of time we stayed but over all really comfortable. Thank you again for having us.

Great location & nice clean place. Only recommendations are a new mattress/pillows, kitchen sink & toilet is in a bad spot.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·May 2025
The cabin is exactly as listed - it’s small, but we weren’t looking for a lot of space. Everything was clean, the wifi worked great, and it’s in the best location and close to everything we wanted to do. We ended up spending a full day in the cabin due to rain and that was a little cramped but we made the most of it and had a great time. The air freshener was a little aggressive but easily remedied. Would definitely stay here again!
