This cabin is PERFECTION! There are not enough adjectives to explain how wonderful our stay was. Sitting on the deck was so peaceful and calm. This is the perfect place to take a deep breath and let all your stress melt away. The owners have thought of everything from all of the amenities to helpful information throughout the cabin.The close proximity to two state parks was also a bonus. We will definitely be back, often!

Cozy & Perfect Stay

My daughter and I had a perfect stay at the Magic Lantern tiny house. The design was perfect for maximizing space (it didn’t feel small at all!) and all the windows really brought nature in. We enjoyed eating berries off the vine and watching the chipmunks and birds do the same. Penrose State Park has a wonderful beach (turn right at the T for the best access) as well.

Short family getaway

We stayed while in town for my step-son's wedding. While we didn't spend a ton of time in the house, the time we were there was amazing. The location was great, it was easy to find and was super cute! There were so many thoughtful touches the owner had added that made the stay perfect! We are already looking at dates to come back

Perfect stay in a cozy cabin in the woods.

Michelle’s cabin was private, clean, and perfectly equipped for a multi-day stay. The beds were comfortable, kitchen was fully stocked, and we were constantly surprised by the thoughtfulness of the amenities. Great communications and better than the description. 10/10 would stay again.

A truly magical place

We have stayed here before and the quiet serenity never disappoints. Michelle and Roger have thought of everything for a true retreat away. All of the details are so thought out, it seemed the deer greeting us upon arrival was planned. He stuck around to make sure we got unloaded ok and then hopped back into the woods, checking on us throughout our stay.

Oasis in the woods

Perfect little home in the middle of the woods near a Longbranch wedding venue. Very comfortable with all the amenities you may need. Particularly helpful were the laundry facilities and gas grill. For those that need it, this home has a handicapped ramp and accessible bathroom facilities. Also enjoyed some blackberries during our stay. Great communication with owner.

Beautiful forest getaway

Get away from it all in a charming tiny home cabin (that doesn’t feel at all tiny). Extremely clean, well appointed, light filled, comfortable cabin - in the woods but not completely isolated. Wildlife sightings, Penrose Point State Park very close. Responsive host. Green all around. Rejuvenating. My cousin visiting from LA, and I from Portland, LOVED our stay! Highly recommend!

A fairy-tale cabin!

The cabin was wonderful! It was clean, well stocked, and private. I got there late at night and I was worried that I wouldn't be able to see a thing. But Michelle left the lights on for me. So I was greeted by a cozy, well lit cabin that was surrounded by all the outdoor lights. We had a terrific time. Barbecued on the grill and made a bonfire one evening. It felt like a magical place to rest and unwind. We will definitely be going back!!

Family Connection Spot

This place was adorable and perfect for our needs. Myself my hubs and our daughters 7and 8. They Loved the loft bedroom and especially the mini fridge which could literally fit a couple capri suns, an apple, and yeah,a package of microwave popcorn. The beds are super comfy, the entire place is very clean and it is just an all around magical place. The living room is tiny, which was just fine for us. We spent a lot of time on the cozy covered porch playing cards and just being together. My daughter Juniper spent literally hours picking blackberries on the property and both the girls had a blast just exploring all the sweet magic. The water is so close. We spent our 1 full day at the bay playing in the water and exploring the beautiful trails. This was just what our little family needed right before the the start of the school year. The kitchen is stocked with decent knives (we have learned to pack our own just in case)along with tongs and all the other kitchen essentials. My hubs has been a cook for 25yrs so this is essential for us. One thing to note, the main road is closer than expected so there is some traffic noise during the day. This was not an issue for us, however if youre looking for a zen getaway, it may be distracting. Also, the local tiny mart is astronomically over priced. So come completely prepared. It is just basically a gas station without the gas and we had to pay $10 for a bag of marshmellows! So bring all the things! Overall, loved it!!!

This fabulous Tiny House is really not that tiny!

I am fascinated about tiny homes! Even more so after being here. When we walked I was so impressed that I messaged Michelle to see if we could stay a 3rd night. Here’s what i didn’t expect from a Tiny Home: * Two queen bedrooms! * The master bedroom is on the main floor, next to the bathroom. It has a pull out TV, bed stands with reading lamps on both sides, lots of drawer and closet space to hang your clothes. * A good sized bathroom with decent counter space and a very nice large shower. * The second queen bedroom in the loft is accessed by stairs, not a ladder. It’s a good size room with lower ceiling clearance, but large enough for a little table. * Dimmers on most all lighting. * The large deck is partially covered and wraps around one side of the home with nice outdoor furniture and lighting. * Lots of windows that open with forest views, high ceilings in most rooms make the home feel so much larger. * A living room with comfortable seating and Smart TV where we could watch the Seahawks. * ADA compliant (American Disability Act) . The property is fabulously secluded. The driveway is lit up with festive white lights. The home is very clean, tastefully decorated, not cluttered. Drawers are labeled with access to extra extra blankets and pillows. Pots, pans and dishes are all in great condition and there are 3 ways to make coffee! Michelle was great to communicate with and very quick with her responses. We can’t wait to return. Thank you Michelle!
