We were amazed beyond our imagination with the cabin. It is incredible. the location wasn't as open as we thought, but it was beautiful. Very relaxing location. Cabin was full of a lot of stuff from dishes, bedding, games, and even some food. Very happy with our stay. Would definitely rent again if we get back tothat area. ##### Gregory E.

Dec 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Very relaxing We needed somewhere to unwind that we could also take our three fur babies. Couldn't have asked for a better escape! The sunrises, the sunsets, The horses right out the window. Just enough modern convenience blended in to an 1880's escape. Our fur babies loved the walks of the gravel driveway every morning and night. The horses would come over to greet us. Cuddling up to a warm fire was just the perfect touch to end each day. We plan to come back! ##### Philip s. Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rose Nov 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication We had a few small hiccups upon arrival but our host Rick resolved immediately. The cabin sits on a horse farm & is beautiful as well as quiet. Being able to make a fire made it comfortable & cozy as did rocking on the front porch at sunrise & sunset. The beds are comfortable & a great perk to able to wash laundry while staying a day or two. Internet, TV & iphones all had connectivity entire stay. If your looking for a safe, clean, quiet, rustic place to hang out while on the road " You hit the jackpot" 100% would stay here again.. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/41e21258-bc61-45ed-ae54-5474e0c5f1bf-1762104924173.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f47ea939-b775-4241-bbbe-e70cb01b1cd1-1762104925725.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ae47b849-0909-407a-8b84-0384bd1c0474-1762104925802.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/049f6146-e15d-4499-ae67-fa26b4898329-1762104927875.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Rose Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa J.
