Amazing little cabin in the woods!

Lovely, new, clean and beautiful cabin for a friend’s getaway in the woods. The plan was to eat good food, have quality outdoor time and enjoy friends. We walked out the front door and were able to snowshoe on the shared groomed trails surrounding the neighborhood. The cabin had everything you need! The only caution would be the sitting area is in a loft accessible by a ladder so if you aren’t super mobile it might not be the best spot for you, but we loved it! The host was super helpful and responsive to any, silly, questions we had!! It was perfect!

Impeccable and charming

I’ve been using Vrbo to book places for the past five years and keep striking out. Mice issues, no heat or limited heat (locked box we could not adjust) are just some of the issues we’ve ran into (we visit in February to ice fish). I’m happy to say we found a gem of place this time.The space was perfect for us and had enough room for everything we needed.The amenities were solid and the place is very nice. Additionally, the property manager was incredibly responsive and on top of everything.We didn’t use the loft but we also weren’t there long enough to need it. Its proximity to Hayward was great as well.

Lovely Cabin in the Woods

We booked this cabin with the idea that we'd use it as a home base for skiing the Birkie trail, and riding the Camba trails (both of those trails connect right out the door of the Birkie Haven cabin). With the warm weather, we got in a single bad ski, and a single decent bike ride. Neither was what we were looking for, but this cabin at 'The Brook' made up for it. Everything was great. The Brook is a little community with sweet little trails all around it. The cabin was well appointed, with nice decorations, a gas fireplace, and everything you might want for a quiet few days to yourselves. It was QUIET, which was wonderful. There's a ladder to the upstairs, where the comfortable seating (couch and chairs) is located. If we come back this way, we'll surely stay here again.
