LOG Cabin, 5 miles from town, but very country setting

This cute log cabin was built by my grandparents about 35 years ago. The cabin is a little over 5 miles from downtown Somerset, and about 30 minutes from the lake. Play golf up the road at Eagle's Nest Country Club if you don't want to go to the lake, or play a round before the monthly car show. The road is a residential road, with little traffic. Area is very quite, and gets dark, but night time is a great for a time to gather around the fire pit in the back yard. There is enough room in the front to park several cars, and enough room to park the boat when you pull it out of the water.

House also has a pack-n-play in the master closet.

House includes a charcoal grill. Fire wood for the fire pit can be purchased locally if there is none in the back yard.

The master bedroom has a queen bed with ample room, sleeps 2.
The second bedroom has a bunk bed with a twin on top and a full on the bottom, sleeping 3. There is a sleeper sofa in the livingroom, sleeping 2 there as well.

Laundry facilities are also in the bathroom.

House does have internet, as well as a roku with YouTube TV in the livingroom. As well as a firestick with YouTubeTV in the master bedroom.

No smoking is allowed in the house. However, there is an ash tray provided on the front and back porch.

Nice getaway without kids

It was a cozy 2 bedroom cabin close enough to town to run out for dinner but far enough away to have a quiet country feel. The small road its on has such little traffic you could count the daily cars on one hand. The bed was so comfortable Im now tasked to find one for home. Cell service was spotty for 2 of the 3 carriers we had but the wifi compensated allowing easy access to call home and check on the kids. It was a very nice get away and the host was very thoughtful and accommodating offering suggestions for dinner venues. It's definitely on our short lists of favorite places to stay.

This cabin is located in such a peaceful setting. I think we counted about 10 cars that drove by in the 4 days we were there. The cabin was cute and cozy.

Cozy Cabin

Such a great little cozy cabin. It has all the necessities needed for a comfortable stay without all the high end items (especially with younger kiddos). This is the second time we have stayed and would love to come back again.
