We loved everything about our stay! We felt immediately at home - with everything we could have wanted in place - including a lit Christmas tree! Our dogs loved laying in front of the fire and the fenced in large wrap around porch to let them be outside while seeing nature. The short trail that led off from the left of the home along the creek was so peaceful - and the dogs enjoyed getting in the creek and in the lake. We loved the views from the hot tub and the master bedroom porch. Truly a very well-appointed cabin in a lovely setting. Everything you could ever ask for. |
