10 / 10Outstanding·Jun 2026
The house is very well equipped inside and out. Despite the rainy weather we found plenty to do with DVDs, lots to read and suggestions for eateries and activities in the Howell's guide book. The hot tub was the best we had ever been in and we were able to enjoy it in the rain and finally sun! The outdoor property is enchanting and would be fun for little ones. We didn't get to use the kayaks but vests of all sizes were available inside, nice and clean. My husband fished off the dock mornings and evenings with success as rivers were too high. We intend to come back. It was the BEST!!
10 / 10Outstanding·May 2026
The cabin was so well equipped. We took full advantage of the kayaks, sauna, and all the dvds through sunny and rainy days. This was an exceptionally cozy and relaxing experience!
10 / 10Outstanding·May 2026
Dave and Pearle have created such a wonderfully curated, comfortable cabin at the Owl's nest and I can't recommend it highly enough. The communication and helpful materials are the best I've encountered through VRBO or similar sites. You've got everything you could possibly need for whatever type of trip you have in mind, be it an active trip on the water or nearby hiking, or a relaxing trip reading in the hammock or enjoying the sauna (incredible) or hot tub. Do not hesitate and do yourself a favor: stay at the Owl's Nest for a fantastic trip to DCL.

The property was as advertised. The dock, fire pit, outdoor area in general were all wonderful.
