The cabin was such a special stay for us. My bridal party and I stayed there for our wedding weekend and had the best time. The house is incredible. We were all awed by the craftmanship and décor. Several of us wish we could live there full time. The land is absolutely beautiful with a meadow surrounding the rolling hills. There is a halfmoon clearing at the bottom of one of the hills where my husband and I practiced our first dance in the dappled sunshine. It was truly magical. The neighbors have a goat named Pandora who we periodically saw munching on grass far down the hill. She’s an old gal who is unbothered by close proximity and a few pets (on her back, not her head), but will let you know if she wants her space. She was a great addition that brought us animal lovers a lot of joy. There are 2 porch swings and some rocking chairs on 2 different porch/balconies, which were great for evening hang outs. Highly recommend the cabin. We can’t wait to come back for a reunion!

Great cabin just off the highway that feels like it's in a much more rural area. My family loved playing on the foosball table and enjoyed eating our breakfasts in the spacious kitchen. This would be a great place for larger groups too.

What a beautiful log cabin with lots of room! Nice quiet area... We saw deer out in the field several times. Comfortable beds. We enjoyed sitting on one of two porches listening to the birds as well as playing foosball, All bedrooms were upstairs...so be aware if anyone in your group has mobility issues. A
