The cabin may appear small on the outside but looks are deceiving. The inside is spacious enough for a family with plenty of comfortable beds and linens. The outdoor space is perfect for coffee or relaxing on cool fall days. Kitchen was stocked with anything I could have needed. The host was helpful, responsive, pleasant and welcoming. I cannot wait to return.

The property is pet friendly, clean and organized and the hosts are VERY responsive and accommodating. The property is so comfortable, you can’t help but unwind. Conveniently located, peaceful but not isolated. Much to do in the area. I can highly recommend this property.

I booked this trip as solo weekend getaway. The cabin was absolutely perfect...all the amenities I needed plus some. The host was kind enough to leave lights on for me to accommodate my late arrival which made check in late at night a non-issue. The cabin offers privacy without seclusion. Everything was clean, the beds were comfortable and the kitchen/bathroom has everything I needed. Old Forge being less than 10 minutes away was wonderful. So many shops and restaurants to explore! I cannot say enough about the host. She was absolutely wonderful...great communication and extremely accommodating! I will absolutely be using this property again and again. It's a perfect sample of life in ADK.
