Wonderful Getaway

The Cedar Street house is great... perfect location, walkable to everything, beautiful surrounds and views and even with the very close proximity to the village feels tucked away in its own little pocket of forest. The house was immaculate and very well appointed with supplies for our family of five and furball companion. Would definitely stay again.

Great cabin, great location as well

Cabin was stocked very well with everything you would need. The entire place was extremely clean as well which is not always the case for places that allow pets. We enjoyed our stay and our kids really liked the Kids area in the crawl space. I will be staying here again.

Awesome place!

We arrived in a snow storm and were so happy to be at the cottage. Everything was cozy and the beds were really comfy and top of the line. There was fire wood there for the fireplace and lots of recommendations for exploring around the area. It is a beautiful home and perfect for a family or friend vacation. Located right in town too!!!

Very close to town

My daughter wanted to spend her 13th bday in a cabin that was within walking distance of town. Boy did this fit the bill! Very confidante home and the 13 year old girls loved the lift area. In the warmer weather, i can imagine the yard is so amazing and inviting for adventure but we're a bunch of babies so it was too cold for us to spend much time out. I would urge anyone wanting to stay at a place to check out the town to stay here!
