Recent extensive renovations bring this cabin up to modern standards with a brand-new deck and hot water heater. Relax and make yourself at home by resting on the plush furniture, streaming a movie marathon on the large TV, or serving brunch on the deck while feeling the breeze.

Comfortable beds in spacious bedrooms ensure everyone will receive a wonderful night's rest, with two Queen-size beds up the ladder in the loft. Please note that this property does not have A/C.
