Beautiful house and beautiful sky
The sky was exactly as pretty as advertised, and the house was even nicer. The pictures really don't do it justice.

Beautiful cabin
This cabin is amazing.. we hope to return in the future! We were very impressed with all of the thoughtful amenities offered, as well as the thoughtful/fun decor. The location is wonderfully secluded, but we felt close enough to the town to run errands or pop out for a day trip. Our whold family really enjoyed our stay!

The perfect weekend
Absolutely amazing if you wanna be alone in the middle of the woods this is the place to be. We didn’t have clear nights to see all the stars but we did get to sit out on the porch and listen the wildlife and the rain drops on the metal roof. We will be coming back here again Perfect to be away from everything and reconnect

Stars, stars, stars
The property is excellent for star gazing. Nice cabin. Quiet, remote. The property owner mentioned SUV to access cabin! Absolutely necessary, the road is horribly rutted and a car will drag the under carriage. But the cabin and night sky are worth "traveling the road".
