Great place! Cabin was clean and spacious inside which was great due to the weather not being the greatest to be outside a lot. Plenty of room for us all inside. Having an outside grill was also nice. Kitchen well stocked. Host was great to communicate with. Will definitely be staying here again!

Great place to stay away from it all

Property was great for our group of 8. Well stocked with things to do and plenty of parking. Great place to be if you want to be away from the bustle of being in town. Very peaceful and the drive to the property is beautiful and takes you. Host was very communicative.

The house was even better than expected. Very clean and worked perfectly for our group. Sand court and campfire pit are well maintained and we thoroughly enjoyed using both. If we ever stay in the area again we’ll definitely look at booking this house again!

UTV Group Ride

We love riding the Leota trails. With the Leota Lodge booked we looked for another place to stay. The cottage was perfect. Great location for trail riding and the circular driveway is perfect for easy maneuvering of a trailer.

Outdoor oasis!

We had a group of eight adults and one dog. We had a long weekend of side by side riding, sitting around the table in the screened in gazebo, and enjoyed our nights hanging out around the fire pit. This place is clean, they provide you with everything and even have treats for the dog. The owners are quick to respond and very friendly and helpful. We will be returning.

Bachelor's Party July 14-16th

The house was perfect for the groups hopes and needs! Additionally, the provided games, movies, and speaker were very pleasant to have already there! The gazebo was a fan favorite spot to sit with the lighting and bug net for late evening chats. The wood being provided was super helpful and kind as well. Would rate this one of the best stays I've been to and would highly recommend for anyone looking for a getaway to a quiet area!
