Coziest sunset ever

Beautiful spot! We absolutely fell in love with the sunset view here. Very cozy, romantic, easy to get to, and the cabin smelled lovely like fresh pine. The futon was comfy and the vibes were great.

This was a great setup for our 1 night camp out. I leant camping, but sometimes a cabin is nice too. I brought cots to sleep on but the floor would work too, and there’s a futon available. Site was easy to find

I booked this to make sure we would have shelter in case it rained (it didn't). It's a cute little cabin with one futon, so definitely bring your own sleeping bags/blankets, etc. The porta potty was very stinky - really needed to be dumped. There was plenty of dry twigs from trees but not a lot of logs to keep the fire going, so would recommend grabbing a few before you arrive (there were tons of "free/cheap" wood along the drive).
