Adorable cabin near hurricane marina

We loved our stay. The cabin is well equipped with the essentials (and more) - we enjoyed the comfortable beds, convenient outlets and usb plugs, and the thoughtful, charming decor. Jeremy was a great host and we look forward to another stay here in the future.

Excellent Stay

We really enjoyed staying at this house! All four of us are flatlanders, so it took a bit to get used to the drive in and then the house itself sits on the side of a hill. However, the house was very clean, it had everything we needed, there were plenty of beds and the best part for us was the back porch! We spent a lot of time out there, just talking and relaxing.

Outstanding

The home was very well appointed from beginning to end and communication with the host spot on. What I appreciated most was the simplified check out process. I've booked many short term rentals in the past and none were this streamlined. I wouldn't hesitate to stay at this home again in the future.

Wakefest 2024

We stayed here for Wakefest 2024. House was very clean and well taken care of. We really enjoyed the screened in porch. Communication with the owner was excellent. Jeremy was very quick to respond with any questions we had. The community boat ramp was very convenient. You just need to be very careful on the roads, especially if you’re pulling a boat. There are some sharp turns and steep hills.

Super accommodations

They had everything. We have been to some that were very bare bones so it was amazing to have the comfort of home. You walk in and it's so inviting. I wish I could wake up and do coffee on that screened porch every morning. They were so helpful and easy to get ahold of whenever we needed anything. It was the best week we've had in a long time. There was enough room for everyone and cozy at the same time. Thank you for sharing your house with us. forfor the rest of my live

Communication was great! The primary bedroom bed was comfortable. Despite the cozy layout, we had plenty of room for six people, the kitchen worked well and the teenagers loved playing cornhole! Wish we could’ve stayed longer!

Very Accommodating

The cabin was wonderfully equipped with everything our family needed for our weeks stay at the lake. Communication from the host was great and we really enjoyed our time there! If you are bringing a boat/trailer, just be mindful that the road in and out is a steep and narrow gravel, mountain road. If you don’t have experience maneuvering on roads like that, you may want to leave the boat at home and rent one from the marina.
