★ OTHER THINGS TO NOTE ★

Please note that this log cabin is 170-years-old. It’s been well-cared for and offers plenty of cozy charm but does have characteristics of a historic home such as bumpy flooring, uneven stairs, and the occasional draft if it’s cold and windy outside. In the winter the house is heated by the gas fireplace and electric space heaters so this may not be the best fit for guests who have balance issues or unsupervised children. In addition, we are located in the woods, the property is treated but there is a good chance you might see a bug or two in the warmer seasons!

Cancellation Policy: Ninety-six percent (96.00%) of the total booking charges will be refunded if the cancellation is made more than 30 days prior to the arrival date of the reservation. Fifty percent (50.00%) of the total booking charges will be refunded if the cancellation is made more than 14 days prior to the arrival date of the reservation. For cancellations made within 14 days prior to the arrival date, no refund will be issued.

Hi! I'm Shelley! I am so excited to share my historic log cabin with you! I love the area and I hope you do too! I like to give my guests the privacy to enjoy their space, but feel free to reach out if you need anything! There is also a digital guidebook I will be sent to you that should answer all of your questions as well as provide recommendations on things to do and where to eat!
