Jan 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely escape We adored our time away at this adorable cabin! All the little details make the cabin cute and cozy. The beds were extremely comfortable, the grounds were beautiful and safe to explore, the owner was extremely kind and responsive. We found a local place that sold duck eggs and another that sold local honey. We enjoyed the firepit outside, stargazing, and sipping coffee on the front porch. We would definitely book again! ##### Jana S. Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yamil L.
