Meet the Hosts

Owners Laban and Julie love living and raising their family in the country. They both enjoy the outdoors, walking in the woods or other nature trails, landscaping, traveling, good music, and spending time with family and friends. Julie loves working outside in her flowerbeds as soon as spring brings warmer weather. Laban loves quiet times in nature. They both love spring and are glad when winter is behind them.

Listen to the Sounds of Nature

What a beautiful little getaway! It was such a treat to escape the city and enjoy this wonderful cabin! Enjoyed a lovely walk in the woods, relaxed by a bonfire, and enjoyed a morning cup of coffee on the porch while listening to the sounds of nature. There were several complimentary touches that made our stay even more special. The owner was wonderful to communicate with & we already can’t wait to come back!
