Weekend Trip to Art-Funk Forest Retreat

First off, the pictures do not do this cabin justice. This place is amazing. My entire family enjoyed all of the eclectic artwork and my wife was in heaven with the extensive collection of literature. The cabin was clean and has everything you need for a relaxing stay. The jacuzzi tub is a must to unwind. There's plenty of seasoned fireword for the stone fireplace and a collection of board games to enjoy. Outside we found hidden spots of whimsy with fairy lights and sculpture throughout the property. The host was very responsive and couldn't be more helpful. We would definitely recommend and will certainly be back.

7 nights at Art-Funk Forest Retreat

Such a cool spot! We loved staying here - kids & dog included! Comfy, cozy, and the best kitchen I’ve ever had! We will definitely be staying again!
