A cute getaway

What a wonderfully cute tiny house near the lake. It was cozy and I enjoyed myself. The beds were comfy, the lake was cool and refreshing. The bathroom is just steps away from the house but very spacious. The balcony is nice to enjoy a cup of coffee and just listen to the birds sing. It was a wonderful getaway, even if for a day.

Great little getaway!

Such a great little retreat! The cabin was very comfortable and had most modern conveniences. I was a little concerned about the bathroom/shower being located outside, but it’s literally a couple of steps from the porch to the very private and lockable bathroom available to only the occupants of the cabin. We loved using the fire pit and sitting on the porch. There’s a short walk down to the river, and the view is stunning. We truly enjoyed our off season time at the cabin. Just a tip - the owner is NOT located at the house in front of the cabin, although the resident there was very helpful. The owner was readily and easy available by phone and very responsive.
