Maumee river & Metroparks are here!
Chuck’s cabin was the perfect weekend getaway for me, my boyfriend, and his dog. Chuck is very friendly and accommodating and the cabin is better than described. It is cozy, well appointed, and couldn’t be cleaner. We hope to come back for another visit soon!

I really liked this weekend escape with my dogs at Chuck’s cabin. The views were so beautiful and the cabin had everything we could need. There is an awesome trail about a quarter mile from the cabin and it’s very easy to walk there. There’s also a ton of space for the dogs to explore right at the cabin. My dogs loved the trail and I loved the privacy.

Such beautiful scenery, if you’re looking for a nice little place off the grid this is definitely the spot. Was very peaceful and relaxing, place was very well stocked and Chuck was a very nice man. Will definitely be visiting again.

Favorite spot yet!
This place is amazing….serene beyond words. Completely private and so much nature all around. The grounds are kept beautifully and the cabin is stocked with anything and everything you might need. Chuck is very responsive and a pleasure to talk to. Already scheduled to go back. The aluminum boat provided is an amazing bonus! So glad I found this place!
