We had a lovely weekend, we were able to rent a pontoon boat on the lake for a day and have very relaxing campfires in the evening. We wanted for nothing.

Cozy cabin. Nice beds and bedding. Decor was cute. Liked the magazines and that you could borrow movies from the host. Definitely need to bring your own good and drinks. Nearest store is 20 to 30 minutes away. Out in nature. Lovely during fall with leaves changing.

Great cabin

This was perfect for what we wanted. We were less than 10 mins to the boat ramp. The cabin itself was just the right size for the 3 of us plus we could have fit more. We loved the fire pit with wood they supplied for us. Very quiet and remote. We will def be back for a summer trip.

Unplugged getaway!

Quaint cabin on dead end road; perfect for an opportunity to unplug and decompress. Cabin was well maintained and very clean. Host was outstanding in every way. Friendly, flexible, and very informative about area features and attractions. I would recommend, and would definitely book again when we return to the area. Thanks for a great weekend Tim!

It was everything we wanted and more. We met with owner at a AMAZING Fish Fry with their local church. We felt welcome and loved. The surroundings were serene and peaceful. Anyone looking to get a way from the every day hustle and bustle this is the place. At peace with Earth and Nature.
