Cute cabin

October 2024

We had a fun stay in this cabin but there are a few things that I wish I had realized before I went. First is that if anyone in your group is over 5ft 8" they will be hitting their heads on the ceiling. The second is that the two bedrooms are connected and that you need to go through the main bedroom to get to the bathroom if you need to pee in the middle of the night. There were a lot of plus sides with this cabin though. The man who lives in the connected area is very sweet and helpful. If you have any issues he is more than happy to provide answers or questions. The location is beautiful! We went during fall so the colors of the leaves were fabulous. There are also a ton of things around if you are interested in hiking or historic events.

This location was perfect for hiking the AT. It is close to the Washington Monument. The history of the cabin and the area was very interesting.
