The actual Inn, not the cabins, is a cute rustic lodge. The couple is super sweet and the surrounding area is amazing. They were great and everything was clean. No complaints

We had an amazing experience. The owners are wonderful, the room was great, and the town is an experience all in of its own. We will be back.

Quaint cottage in the forest!
Quaint little cottage in the forest! We really enjoyed our stay! We loved the unique look of the cottage from the living plants on the roof and adorable front door to the unique backsplash of found glass in the kitchenette The location was right in or next to Giant City State Park and we were not near many people. The shower room was nice. Things to help you prepare for your stay: you have to walk a little bit from the car to the door so just fyi, I did not have cell coverage (AT&T) but my partner did (T-Mobile), the stairs going from the bedroom to the living area/kitchen are very narrow (however, you can get there from a door to the downstairs), and there is an air conditioner in the bedroom but we brought a fan for the living/eating area. There isn't a dishwasher. I don't know if they wash the dishes in a dishwasher between guests, we just washed them with soap and a sponge but it would make me feel better if I knew they washed them in a dishwasher in between. Overall it was a great experience, and we would probably stay there again if it was less expensive (we did book last minute, so that may have made a difference).

Off-the-beaten-path place for a getaway
Stumbled across this place by browsing on Hotels.com and we were pleasantly surprised about our stay. Such a quaint, off-the-beaten-path place. If you are looking for peace and quiet nestled in the heart of the forest you will find it. The owners are so friendly and welcoming. You do need to plan ahead for food or snacks as it's not a regular hotel and there isn't much nearby. If you request in advance you can have breakfast - Greg made us a delicious breakfast both mornings of our stay. There is no wifi in the cottages but they do have it in the main house and the owner mentioned they are trying to get it soon. We also had no cell service so be prepared to unplug - which isn't necessarily a bad thing. It was a perfect place for a short getaway. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend.
