9 family members stayed here for our family reunion. The place was immaculate, airy but with a cozy cabin feel. Loved the open kitchen and all the sitting space. The bathroom space certainly served our needs. Bonus porch that looked out into nature gave us relaxing time to sit, drink coffee and play music. We enjoyed our time there very much.

The property is as described, away from neighbors enough to feel away from it all. Very relaxing at night by the fire or on the deck in the hot tub gazing at stars. Our one suggestion would be to add some dressers for clothing storage.

The property was well-appointed, clean, and really comfortable. Our kids enjoyed the hot tub and arcade games. We also enjoyed being so close to the Lil' Mole Run golf course, which was so fun to play. We would definitely stay again!

The cabin was perfect for my daughter’s sweet 16th birthday get away with family and friends. The girls loved staying in the upstairs loft and the adults enjoyed spending time by the fire pit. The cabin was close to hiking trails and town. It was a great trip!

This cabin was perfect for my party of 10--all females -- 7 of which are teenagers. The cabin was spacious enough that everyone had their own space to sleep and with three full bathrooms, no one was standing in line. Two of the bathrooms were big enough for several girls to put on their make up at the same time. Only one thing missing...a full length mirror! Girls need a full length mirror. The hot tub was a big added bonus, as was the fire pit. I think we enjoyed every amenity the cabin had to offer in our short stay. I wished we could have stayed longer.

We brought our children and their friends her for our daughter’s 13th birthday party. The girls all slept upstairs and had a great time! They would have loved trying the hot tub, but we weren’t there long enough for it to warm up. The property had everything we could need with some bonus details like all of the supplies to make a fire. There was a burn ban, so we did not. Everything was perfect!

There was ants crawling throughout the kitchen, the beds was uncomfortable, no sink stoppers to wash dishes, no dish towels, and lights missing in foyer lighting/chandelier which makes the room dark and needs brighter light bulbs.

Beautiful cabin is as the pictures on the site shows. Very peaceful and comfortable for our family. Loved that you felt secluded on the property even though you really aren’t and the little stories in town were very close. It was only lacking a few kitchen items that we picked up from the dollar store nearby.
