"Our family of 4 had the best stay in this historic cabin. My parents joined for a couple of nights, and we were very comfortable. Dinner outside on the deck under the trees, walks around the neighborhood, movies with the kids, coffee on the upstairs porch enjoying cool mornings overlooking the lake at the bottom of the hill. It was very relaxing, close to town, and easy to navigate. We will be back!"
