Best Family Stay

Check in was effortless we got to our cabin and we’re so wonderfully surprised of how accommodating and cute it was. The hot tub was such a plus. Everything about this cabin is wonderful we will definitely be back to visit. My grand daughter loved that this house had a loft and that’s where she got to sleep up there. management was so wonderful with check in and any questions that we had. This place has everything you need. You won’t even have to leave the grounds.

We weren't able to make the trip! But the host was super helpful

Unfortunately, we weren't able to make the last-minute booking we made for travel/covid reasons. The host was helpful and communicative in both accommodating a super last-minute request and then when we couldn't make the trip. While policies prevented us from getting a refund, they did not deter my experience or likelihood of re-booking the same property.

our second time here. We had really nice relaxing time. The cabin has everything you need for a short family vacation, there are plenty of hikes and views for curious kids, it is located 30 min away from the Canaan Valey ski resort and cross-country ski locations. Catherine responds immediately and she is very flexible (we asked to extend check out for an hour). will get back here again!

This was a very comfortable cabin for a family trip. Had everything we needed. The spiral staircase to the bedroom in the loft is a bit of a doozy, but fortunately the 2 main floor bedrooms were enough for us.
