About this place

Relaxing Stay: 2 Kitchens, 2 Hot Tubs, Ample Seating, Movie Night with Popcorn

What’s here (both sides together)

2 complete living spaces (Cabin + Guest Quarters) joined by a sunroom
*2 kitchens with stainless appliances, quartz counters, spices, and an “over-the-top” coffee bar (Keurig, kettle, grinder, starter supplies)
*King beds throughout (guests love the comfort); quality linens and plenty of towels
*Fast, easy entertainment: Roku TVs, indoor/outdoor games, and a classic Pac-Man arcade
*Laundry in each side with detergent, iron & board
*Well water treated + reverse osmosis drinking tap
*Central heat/AC in all spaces; wood-burning stoves available seasonally with host approval

Layout at a glance

Log Cabin (sleeps up to 6):
*Living room with electric-reclining sectionals + Roku TV on adjustable mount
*Kitchen + dining for 6 (plus 2 at island)
*3 upstairs king bedrooms, 2 full baths (main: shower; upper: tub/shower + double sinks)
*Front porch with swing & rockers

Guest Quarters (great single-level option):
*Living room seating for up to 8; Roku TV + surround sound
*Kitchen + dining for 6
*King bedroom with slider to private deck + 5-person hot tub (lounger)
*Queen pull-out in living room; dedicated work space with backyard view
*1 bath (shower), in-unit laundry

Shared Sunroom (between both):
*Climate-controlled, comfy seating, Roku TV, game/puzzle table
*Views through a wall of windows—guests call it peaceful and relaxing

Outdoors you’ll love
*Two hot tubs: 7-person at the cabin deck + 5-person at the guest-quarters deck
*Regulation-size pickleball court (Sport Court surface)
*Fire pit with complimentary firewood & skewers
*Gazebo with fire table; multiple seating areas for wildlife watching
*Frequent sightings: deer, birds, squirrels, chipmunks, the occasional ground hog

Wood Burning Stove

*Only host may start a fire in the indoor wood burning stove before check-in.
*$99 fee for start-up and cleaning - $45 per cart of wood.

Things to note:

*Stairs & kiddos: The cabin’s top stair tread is shallower; railings may not suit tiny explorers. Families often place those needing single-level living in the Guest Quarters.
*Cameras disclosed: Exterior security cameras face entry/yard areas (including hot-tub zones) for safety, maintenance timing, and guest privacy—so we don’t interrupt you.
*Road: Private unpaved access road; drive slowly (especially with low-clearance cars).
*Parking: Limited; typically up to 7 vehicles depending on size and parking order—see photos for layout.
*Age & verification: Primary guest 25+; Truvi (formerly Superhog) ID verification within 24 hours of booking.
*Booking guest must sign rental agreement and provide credit card for $500 security deposit within 24 hours of booking.
*Visitors: Must be pre-approved; fees may apply.
*The last 0.3 miles of the drive in is on a dirt road. Due to some sections of that road only being 1 lane wide and the pot holes that develop after a rain, you will want to drive slowly and be ready to yield to oncoming traffic. The circular driveway is paved.

Wood Burning Stove:

Available only when outdoor temps allow—please confirm with host.
Wood Burning Stove Package costs $99 per stover for lighting and cleaning. $45 per cart of wood.
Package must be ordered at least one day before arrival.

Why groups love it

Reviews highlight an immaculate, thoughtfully stocked, “luxury-level” space that’s perfect for weddings, reunions, and family trips—king beds for all, room to spread out, and hosts who are responsive and organized (house guide + quick answers). Many guests say the lodge is even better than the photos and that it’s hard to leave.

***Contact host to obtain a copy of rental agreement before booking.
