    When the evening cools down, cozy up around the wood-burning fireplace or head downstairs for some friendly competition in the game room, complete with air hockey and darts. Free WiFi, cable TV, and a DVD player provide plenty of options for relaxing downtime. And yes, your four-legged family members are welcome too!

Nice home. Very quiet and secluded area.

This is a very comfortable and quiet home to stay in. It is at the end of a fairly long unpaved road so your car will need a wash after your stay.

Epic Weekend

We rented the cabin for 2 days . Late check out on Sunday. We fished and sat on the porch and listened to the creek running. The grandkids loved the fall leaves and catching crawfish at night. We caught 7 Rainbow Trout in 4 hours. We had an absolute blast. Can not wait to return. Thank you.

Fun right outside your door!

This place is literally in the middle of nowhere and we loved it! Honestly I thought I was going the wrong way because it’s a narrow dirt road and the house is pretty far down. We had a wide age and this place worked perfectly. The littlest could walk down to the creek right behind the house and have a perfect place to play. While the older teens and adults could explore just about anywhere they turned! There were lots of cars parking on the road in front of the house and all the way down to the party going to sliding rock. The hike to sliding rock is easy and gorgeous! Loved the house and location. Would say there could be so improvements but nothing too major. It also may time to schedule a deep clean.

4/10 Poor

Disappointed experience. Not as advertised.

The great thing about this cabin is the proximity to the lake, state park, and other places close by to visit. It has a decent kitchen with amenities to make meals and a nice big wooden table that can accommodate 8 to 10 people. Where its lacking are the bathrooms, bedrooms, basement, and patio. They all need updates as the materials are old, outdated, and poorly crafted. They refrigerator leaks, and as well as the basement. They made some attempt at fixing the leak in the basement but having a dehumidifier running constantly and not covering the curtain membrane on the wall just looks unfinished. We had hoped to grill however the gas grill was out of propane and was very rusty. Overall, this property has great potential but currently falls short and is overpriced. I sincerely hope the owners see this review and make the necessary repairs and updates.

Great place, but the bugs!

We rented this cabin for our group of 7 people. We traveled with 4 kids under the age of 16 and 3 adults. The cabin was the perfect size for the group. We placed the adults upstairs and the kids downstairs and everybody was happy. The beds were very comfortable and the linens were clean. Overall the house was clean and there were no issues with the cleanliness of the bathrooms and kitchen. Slide rock is about a half mile hike up from the cabin and the kids loved that place. It was an easy hike on a well kept dirt road. The road to the cabin was well maintained and we really felt like we had that part of the mountain to ourselves. The stream in the back was great for the kids to play and explore within shouting distance of the porch. The grill was clean and we grilled out a few of the nights while there. Helen was only 30 minutes away so finding things to do away from the cabin was also easy. I can honestly say the only issue we had was with the bugs. There were tons of fruit flies and just other bugs that a person usually finds outdoors inside the living areas. We did not call Vacasa and complain about this because we felt there was nothing that could be done while we were staying there. It was obvious that they were aware of the bug problem because there were bug traps in almost every room. I can say we would probably stay here again, but bring our own bug spray and fly catchers. The bugs could be due to the wilderness outside, so we did try to take that into consideration.
