About this property

Elegant cabin in the woods. 3 story log cabin nestled at the end of a 500 yard driveway through the woods on a hill over looking a beautiful spring fed fishing pond. Enjoy the ambiance of an abundance of wild life from both the front and two raised large back decks. Take advantage of 60 acres of land with 3 ponds. Hike through the woods and open fields. Relish in the tranquility of feeling like you are away from all civilization, but less than a mile from local restaurants, stores, and medical centers.

You are in the country so expect so.

Family eclipse trip

Comfortable cabin with plenty of room for our group. We enjoyed the sitting/visiting areas and the deck overlooking the pond. Only a couple of the party were adventurous enough to take the kayaks out on the lake but they had fun We appreciated that there was a dishwasher and washer and dryer however neither the washer or dryer was very efficient. The only safety issue we had was the stairs going to lowest floor, no stair rail for lowest set of steps. Two of our eldest (both in their early 70s) had some trouble navigating. Overall it was a great place for a few days visit

Spring break

Our family had a great time kayaking and fishing on the property. The house had lots of room and everything we needed. We loved sitting on the porch at the end of the day to watch the sunset. Thanks for a great stay!

Cabin in the Woods

Great cabin in the woods. We were in the area for my daughter's wedding. It was close and met our needs. There are 5 bedrooms which was more than what we even needed. The only thing I would caution about is if you have young children like we did, the stairs are extremely dangerous. There are no spindles in the railing on the stairs. It is just a pipe railing. A Child could fall through easily to the other stairs below---it would be a long fall on wooden stairs. Also, the log railing on the overlook from from the top floor looking over into the living room does not go all the way to the floor. Our 2 year old granddaughter could have easily fit and fallen through the space. If you don't have small children, the house would be fine, but it definitely has too many opportunities for small children to get seriously hurt. It has a nice upper deck for relaxing and looking out at the pond. The kitchen is well appointed, although we were too busy and not there enough to cook anything, but there is a good little mexican restuarant right down the road.
