This place is the best!!! You bring the food and the dogs and they provide the rest! Such an amazingly, easy weekend getaway.
The no-see'ems were bad this time, but a good smoky fire and thermacel did the trick. Highly recommend flea and tick collars even if your dogs are receiving regular treatment.
The cabin is simple and very clean and functional. We were cozy with 4 adults and 5 dogs. #summerlovin
Beautiful setting, enjoyed the trails immensely! Turkey’s greeted us in yard on Friday evening. Will return! Thank you McCully host!!!



When they said the cabin was remote, they meant it! The cabin is very clean and well maintained as is the land around it. Cabin is well stocked with most everything you may need.
Lovely area in remote location surrounded by well maintained trails. Had nice time sitting on porch listening to nature sounds. When it rained, the cabin was cozy retreat. We were able to grill outside and cook meals inside. Plenty of space for kids. Nice for my family to spend quality time taking long walks and playing board games.
Good ameneties. Stocked with necessities, cookware, dishes, bedding and blankets. Camp chairs and good firewood was provides. Excellent
It is a great private place. Hiking trail starts right at the door. We had great time here.
The cabin is in a nice remote area and away from all technology. It was the perfect weekend trip! So many nice trails around the location. The house is stocked with everything you need so you don’t have to worry about taking too much with you. Would definitely book this location again!
The cabin was small, tidy, and remote. It was perfect for our weekend get away. There were plenty of hiking trails that were just out the door. We had a great time!
Cozy and welcoming!
