The best place to stay
My cabin was homey and charming. Everything I needed was right there. The site is comfy and private and that made for a restful stay. This was the second time I have stayed in cabin #1 and hope I can stay there the next time I come to Galax!

Peaceful Respite
We had a great short stay here. It was very quiet and comfortable. It would have helped to have had a chair in the living area to sit in, though. I had great difficulty climbing into the tall bed, so I just slept on the sofa. The interior was spotless, but I felt that the deck could have been swept. We enjoyed staying there, though.

Our 2nd time here and we enjoyed it.
This is the 2nd time we stayed at this cabin. We brought us a box fan because we can't sleep without one but if you didn't have something for noise there is a neighbor dog that barked alot. That's the only negative. Everything else was awesome.

Overnight stop
We got to rest here for the night which was super easy. Wish it had more ammenities (shampoo, toothpaste, a snack...) The bed was like a cloud but the pullout was not what we expected for our two kiddos. A beautiful location. Wish we stayed longer to explore.

The cabin was absolutely adorable. Even decorated for the holiday/season (Valentine’s). Views were nice. Only downside is houses in close proximity.

Perfect Valentine's Day
My husband and I spent Saturday in this cute cabin. The hosts are wonderful. They had a bottle of wine for us upon arrival and the cabin was decorated for Valentine's Day. It was just what we needed...a quiet and low key weekend. We played Galaxopoly (monopoly) since the satellite signal was hit and miss. We cooked our Valentine's day dinner there in the well stocked kitchen and enjoyed wine and a good board game. We woke up to a beautiful snow fall the next morning. The only regret we had was that we did not rent this cabin for two nights.
