As you enter, you'll notice the rustic décor with exposed log walls and all the comforts of home. The living room features a big comfy couch, fireplace, flat-screen TV and the cutest window seat ever …perfect for reading a good book.

The combined galley kitchen and breakfast nook is efficient for preparing snacks for your hike or enjoying your morning coffee — but don't forget about the deck with its custom raised deck chairs! The views are enough to make you want to spend all day outdoors.

The outdoor hot tub is ideal for relaxing after a day of hiking or sightseeing, with the mountain air to refresh your soul. Imagine just letting time drift by from your seat on the porch swing…such peace in a natural setting!

Share memories around the fire pit… roasting marshmallows or hotdogs to get that smoky taste. Surround yourself in nature and create new memories to last a lifetime.

Highly recommend. Yes, it has the view you are hoping for and it’s absolutely amazing! Back deck is perfectly set up to enjoy the view and has the bonus of being fully enclosed allowing our dog to be unleashed. Deck has a dining table, charcoal grill, big porch swing, adirondack chairs and a hot tub. The cabin feels isolated. You don’t see or hear any other cabins. There are a couple cabins down the street but blocked by trees so you have total privacy. Close to the road but there is almost no traffic since the cabin is about 5 miles outside town in the opposite direction of the state park. Inside is nice and comfortable with all the modern amenities in good working order. Perfect couples retreat. We will be back.

Wanderlust and Everything Else You Need

If you’re looking for an escape that offers breathtaking views, close vicinity to local attractions, quiet and relaxation, along with little touches like extra towels (for hot tub), cream & sweeteners, and fire roasting sticks for those smores you’re sure to crave, this is the getaway for you! Clean, comfy, and enjoyable. That’s all you need, right!? The rest of the adventure is up to you! Just book it.

Beautiful view and cozy cabin

The view is gorgeous when it's not foggy/rainy. Unfortunately two of the days we were there it was like that. But we did see it on the first day. The cabin is cozy and relaxing. There are neighbors, but they aren't very close and we couldn't see them, only could faintly hear them. It's far enough away from town where you feel alone with nature. The area is really nice and quiet.

What a BEAUTIFUL stay!

This was a beautiful stay. It was a bit drafty but sometimes you can't help that, especially with how old the cabin is. Just bring warm clothes if its going to be cold and windy. I can suffer a bit of cold for that view though. Beautiful!

Incredible!

'The Lookout' is a perfect spot for a couple's retreat. We affectionately call it "the bubble" and love coming out here to get away from absolutely everything. This was our second time staying at this property and I cannot recommend it more highly. The cabin has everything you need, the bed is sooooo comfy, and the porch, porch swing, and hot tub are just divine.

Amazing!

Loved our stay at The Lookout! My wife and I love just relaxing on our vacations, so this was perfect. The views are INCREDIBLE. The sunsets are such a treat and this is the best hot tub experience I’ve had at a Vrbo. Definitely recommend for a couple looking to get away!
