Me and my guests loved this place! The soaking baths, sauna and fire pit made it a great place to hang outside and have a relaxing weekend. The host was very responsive and everything was a breeze. No complaints and everyone who stayed mentioned wanting to come back to visit with their families! Thank you!!

Awesome cozy cabin that was perfect for a girls getaway weekend! Close to wineries and hiking spots but also super private. The amenities of the property were awesome! We used the fire pit and sauna. Mother Nature didn’t cooperate enough to use the outdoor tubs but nonetheless we had a great time!

We enjoyed our 2 night stay with 8 people in our group. We loved the peaceful, private location with prime location close to 3 of our favorite spots. Weis Winery, Living Roots and Birds Eye Hollow. The living room is spacious and the kitchen was perfect for us to enjoy our meals together. The bathrooms were top notch and really enjoyed to heated toilet seats & bidet. The bedrooms were perfect with plenty of bedding and towels. Highly recommend and will definitely be back to stay again!!
