Very nice cabin but not quite off the beaten path

Beautifully decorated little cabin close to Giant City and Blue Sky Vineyard. The hosts had a nice coffee and tea selection. We were a little disappointed that the patio outside the cabin was so small but there was a nicer large area on the other side of the cabin if you wanted to make a fire. One downside is the cabin is in front of a 3 way intersection and there was a lot of local traffic with very noisy trucks going by. If you wanted the windows open or to be outside the noise definitely took away from the ambiance. Overall we would recommend this location and the hosts were very responsive and friendly.

Hiking getaway

Beautiful and very clean cabin. Very nicely decorated with everything you can think of to make your stay there relaxing. About an hour away from Garden of the gods and 30 mins from Jackson Falls. The closest food source was in Marion with lots to choose from. We wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.
Everything you need for a great fire.
This was right in front of the cabin.

Cabin weekend

Everything was fine. Unfortunately it rained & it was cold at night so we didn’t get to enjoy the fire pit. However the fire pit is in the front yard of the cabin son-it’s not very secluded. Plus none of the walls in the cabin go up to the ceiling so there is a lack of privacy. The cabin was very clean.

Short get away for us. Cabin had everything we needed. Well stocked with kitchen and bathroom essentials. Nice outside area for relaxing and bonfire. Owners quick to reply to anything we needed. Several great state parks within short driving distance with nice easy-rugged hikes.
