Rural setting with a great view and tranquil farm surroundings. Short drive into town for dinner or coffee. The shower was very strong, bed comfy, and kitchen had most things you need… was perfect for our stay. We were doing some hikes in the general area, so it was a perfect place to situate ourselves.
The owners are on the same property but the cabin is well placed so you feel very private.
Would recommend for a couple or small family.

“If you wanted peace, quiet & seclusion then this met the brief.”
Overall the house meet our expectation. The only issue was the couch which was stated as a pull out couch to bed. This couch had the smell of cat pee which was offensive. Even though we passed comment and they sent the cleaner in to fix the issue, it didn’t.
Other than the smell which ruined the stay, we were happy with the place.
