Other Details to Note

While our property is peaceful, a neighboring home is now visible from the porch due to recent tree clearing. The cabin itself and the trails still offer plenty of private spaces to relax and unwind, and most guests find the setting just as quiet and serene. The bedroom is in a loft with stairs — guests with mobility concerns may prefer the sofa bed downstairs. Limited cell service in the area, but Wi-Fi is available in the cabin. We share our home with three friendly rescue dogs (plus the occasional neighbor pup). They roam freely but aren’t allowed inside the cabin — no matter how persuasive they are. For safety, exterior security cameras monitor the main gate and pond; wildlife cameras may also be on trails. No smoking or vaping anywhere on the property. A fee will be charged for odors.

I loved everything about my stay here! It was super private and not too far from restaurants/attractions. Andrea and Aaron were fabulous hosts and I would definitely rebook with them again!

Beautiful location to relax and enjoy nature. The house was actually larger than the images show and we had plenty of room . . . We hiked each day with trails and access to explore right out the door. We will definitely be returning

Andrea and Aaron were awesome hosts. They were very accurate and responsive. If I had any questions or concerns they were on the spot. The message box would say, "responds within 20 mins" they were like 20 seconds lol.. Their cabin was ABSOLUTELY adorable and perfect. It was cozy, modern, and smart. And when I say smart I am speaking of the structure of the cabin. The layout was well thought out to provide their guest privacy. Everything was clean and the decor complimented the cabin flawlessly. And the pookas "fur babies" on the property were so sweet. If I am in the area again and there is availability, yup, I will be back. Thanks again Andrea and Aaron.

Wonderful, peaceful stay. Had everything we needed. We are retired and booked on Christmas Day to see near by family. It was nice to visit family and come back to this beautiful cabin. We had lost our sixteen year old dog a month ago and there were rescue dogs on the property that were so loving. We enjoyed petting them. Hosts were great answering any questions. Very clean.

Awesome place, well decorated, super clean. Nice dogs on-site and good local hiking. If you are elderly there is a chance that you will have a hard time with the stairs getting up into the bedroom. Great spot, we will be back.

We were looking to get away to a remote cabin. Andrea & Aaron’s place was perfect. We had all of the modern amenities with the peacefulness of a mountain setting.

This was the perfect spot for our weekend getaway to celebrate our anniversary! The cabin was very clean and cozy, and the most well-equipped Airbnb we have ever stayed in. Andrea and Aaron have done an amazing job of creating a welcoming space with many thoughtful touches.

Thank you for the directions on getting there. It is off the road a bit but very peaceful. It was a great getaway for my husband and myself. We like to unplug every now and then. I have to say if you do not like to not have cell service it's not for you. We didn't mind it. It's beautiful. Thank you for sharing your place with us!

Beautiful, secluded setting. Please don’t be nervous about the last few miles on a gravel road—it’s totally worth it to get away from the hustle and bustle. The cabin is thoughtfully crafted with is absolutely gorgeous. I was able to relax and unwind sitting by the fire. Morning was delightful enjoying tea on the front porch. I hiked the lovely trails on the property, and I very much was able to relax and unwind!

Really wish we would have had a longer stay to explore the property. It is gorgeous. We were picking up a boat and they are located 6 minutes from one marina and 20 minutes from another so ideal if you have a boat, canoe, or kayak.
