Cozy, quiet and relaxing
Very comfortable cabin with space to spread out and enjoy the forest. The cabin was well appointed, clean and well maintained. The pellet stove was a welcome feature for warmth and atmosphere. Excellent communication from the host.

Sundance Cottage Very Cozy
This is a very well thought out and managed property. It has room for 6-8 people, including the additional bedroom in the smaller building. Everything was convenient at the property and along rt. 26. And, individual room and pellet stove heating were excellent. The only drawbacks were one bathroom and the closeness to rt. 26. For my stay, though, neither was a problem. I would recommend this property highly,
