Gorgeous cabin and location!

Wow! I really loved this place. Kate's cabin is so cute and thoughtful. Inside you'll find a comfy bed, candles, and a wood burning oven. The cabin is a quick walk into the woods from your car but Kate provides a wagon for transporting your things. Along your walk you'll get to see the horse, chickens, ducks, and goats. The outdoor area was the best tho. You have direct access to the water which rises and falls a whopping 12 feet, twice a day. So be sure to check the tide charts before you head out on the kayaks. There is a fire pit outside with wood provided and tons of forgeable kindling around. I would absolutely stay again. (:

Magical Experience!

We had the most amazing time on at the cabin. The location was beautiful and private. The cabin’s ambiance and cozy vibes were immaculate. Ample firewood and plenty of space to get snuggled up. Additionally, a magical marsh to explore behind the property at both low and high tide. The vastness of the stars and nature here just added to the experience. It was everything we hoped it could be and more. Can’t wait to come back ✨🌲

Second time we’ve been back, the writers cabin is so nice and comfy. Made fires and played with the animal, sea kayaks are super fun. 10/10

Our stay was wonderful! The land is beautiful and Kate and Zack were so welcoming. There is a delightful mix of farm animal hustle and bustle, with quiet secluded cabin time. This is really a great place to rest and retreat, while also being a perfect home base for exploring the Bold Coast. Highly recommend for those of you who like the combination of adventure and solitude.

A cozy evening spent at the Writer'

This was an incredible and unique experience! The views from the cozy cabin are stunning. The off-grid cabin allowed us to unplug and reconnect with nature. We were even greeted by a herd of goats in the morning! The hosts are fantastic and very responsive! I can't wait to come back to the Writers Cabin, what a great spot!
