About the host
Hosted by Douglas Bailey
I grew up in the area. The property is the fulfillment of my parents retirement dream which they enjoyed for many many years. My favorite place to be is this property and am glad to share with others so they can enjoy it too!
What makes this property unique
Remote, quiet, views, natural, wildlife of all kinds, private trails, small meadows surrounded by mature forest, seas of ferns. NOTE: The accommodation is in a REMOTE location, whereas the public road and private road are typical for such a site. The cabin is OFF THE GRID. There is no air-conditioning and no TV. There is internet for convenient streaming of entertainment via your own device(s). For summer guests, it rarely gets very hot here. But, if so, I have tips I can provide to help you keep the cabin cool. There are four portable fans and a ceiling fan.
Though you have the entire cabin to yourself, recently, a caretaker's tiny cabin was added where I sometimes stay to manage the property even when guests are in the main cabin. When guests are staying, when in the area, I arrive at the tiny cabin about 7pm and leave about 7:30am every day.
I travel for work so may or may not be staying in the tiny cabin upon your stay. I can let you know if I am or not at your inquiry. You'll know I'm there by my bright blue SUV. See exterior photos.
