The cutest little cabin in the woods!
We loved this cute little one-bedroom cabin that was so sweetly decorated and included a beautiful chandelier. The front porch has two rocking chairs and the backyard has a firepit with two Adirondack chairs where we built a fire in the fall. The owner was so kind and we just loved our cabin in the woods! And, they even left us farm fresh eggs from their chickens! What a sweet touch! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay! We can't wait to spread the word!
