Beautiful secluded cabin.

This is a fantastic quiet and secluded cabin overlooking a small Lake. I got this from my wife, she's writing her fifth book and she needed a small getaway to clear her mind. The owners of the cabin were super accommodating and very friendly. Couldn't have asked for a better situation. I will definitely be renting this cabin again soon.

Shipping Container was small but a unique experience to stay. Very quiet, comfortable, and lots of extras! The little lake wasn’t up to par but maybe it was just the time of year.

Pratka get away

We loved the unique little get away. It was very cozy. So very sorry for everyone around in the surrounding area due to a tornado coming through there a few weeks before and destroying the huge trees around there. We would love to come back again some time!

Best weekend EVER!

This property is surely a diamond in the rough! We were in town for a wedding, and didn’t want to stay in a hotel. Though we had never stayed in a container home we just gave it a try and when I tell you it was breathtakingly beautiful and serene, I truly mean it. It was so peaceful, secluded, & surrounded by nature. The layout of the inside was simple, but we had everything we needed. The decor was simplistic but cool. They had progress pics of the building of the container home which was a neat touch. The bathroom was one my favorite parts… well the window by shower looked out into the woods, and you could even see the lake…. Ahhh breathtakingly gorgeous! Chefs kiss. Don’t hesitate to rent here. Don’t think twice.

Hidden Gem

My fiancé and I book this little gem as much as we can to escape the city and just relax. Perfect location for us. We enjoyed a sunny day on the deck, grilled dinner and enjoyed the water views! I love the string lights on the patio at night! Daniel is an excellent host and is very quick to respond. We ended our weekend with the local Rooster stopping by to say Hi! Looking forward to our next stay!

Relaxing and Interesting Place

This was a cute and relaxing cabin. The inside was clean and nicely decorated. Host was very nice and helped out with the cold temperatures. I booked this place for a weekend getaway with my partner, and we were not disappointed.
