The cabin has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The first is a bedroom on the first floor across from the full bathroom. The other 3 bedrooms and bathroom are on the second level.
This is the perfect setup for families, friends, or couples traveling together. With cozy textiles strewn about its warm interior, it’s the perfect place to play a round of cards (or one of the many available board games), read or relax out back by the wood burning fire pit!
The Stew Cabin is in a very walkable and friendly neighborhood, in addition to being close to lots of outdoor activities. Enjoy the deck with a table and chairs in the summertime, with a good cup of coffee in hand (complimentary selection of coffee and hot cocoa are offered, of course).

We had an absolute wonderful stay at the Stew Cabin. We put together this trip to enjoy time with our 94 year old grandmother, which accommodates with parking in rear and back entrance & no steps and bedroom on first floor(which worked out perfectly. View was beautiful and hosts provided thoughtful information regarding area of places to eat & things to do. Definitely will be coming back in the future and recommending to friends!.
We really enjoyed staying at this cabin.....it is updated and very nice! We loved the outside areas! Jamie was wonderful to work with when we had a minor glitch with the wifi. There were also a few minor housekeeping/mechanical issues but nothing that would prevent us from giving the is cabin 5 stars! We do wish that there would have been some information provided regarding the extreme steepness of the stairs. Our elder dog was not able to sleep on the floor with us because dogs can not make it up these stairs. (She's too heavy to carry). Also these stairs are pretty dangerous for young kids and we worried about our daughter climbing the stairs with her three month old. By the end of the trip.....our senior knees were screaming a bit. It's still an amazing cabin! I just wish the site would have been more transparent on this draw back. If you can handle some steep stairs......this cabin is perfect!

Cozy
We had a lovely stay. Every time I rent from Jaime, I’m always pleasantly surprised by how well kept the properties are. I no longer want to rent from anyone else.
We loved this place. The complimentary s’mores fixings were an awesome touch.
