The cabin was exactly what we needed. Very clean and comfortable. Nice little fenced in yard just right for our little fur-baby (she’s an old gal). Parking was right next to the fence so no worries about your vehicle. Nice and cool inside when we arrived (thank you Colleen). We will look to stay here again on our next visit.

The place was so elegantly decorated for Christmas, i was jealous, not over done but perfect. It felt like home, the sleep number bed was so comfortable. The porch was so nice to sit on and relax. The puppy next door was so sweet and let us pet her through the fence and it was fun to watch the chickens through the fence. We will be back for sure.
