WHAT IS AVAILABLE FOR YOU... MORE ABOUT THE CABINS AND OVER THE RIVER THROUGH THE WOODS PROPERTY.

Enjoy this unique Cabin experience.  The first 4 cabins have custom built bunk beds.  They were meticulously crafted by the local Amish to blend harmoniously with the natural landscape.  

Emily B shares... "We absolutely enjoyed our stay! We were mostly impressed by the actual real-life size of the bunk beds, as they were much larger in person, and the craftsmanship is just stunning! We were able to enjoy some much needed TLC to relax and spend quality family time together. I was able to enjoy crafts with my daughter at the pic-nic table, creating bracelets and sand necklaces. We were able to walk down to the water and look for crayfish. It was nice having a firepit to sit around at night to keep warm and participate in intimate conversation and bond. The host was amazing at keeping in contact with us and making sure we have everything we need. We will most definitely be booking a stay again!! Thank you so much for a beautiful and cozy stay!"

With rustic charm, Andrea M. shared... "It was a nice little getaway for a few days. Beautiful mountain views. Cabin was perfect size and very nice/welcoming. Perfect mixture of relaxation and a little bit of roughing it... we enjoyed cooking breakfast and dinner over the fire"
