The single level and attached garage make it ideal for anyone with mobility difficulties.

Summary: Words can’t describe this cabin/location. It was breath taking and peaceful. My boys spent hours upon hours fishing and kayaking in the swimming hole. The hikes were beautiful. The cabin fit us all perfectly. We will be back. Thank you for an unforgettable experience.
