Our dog loved Elm cabin!
This place is SO CUTE! Inside was refreshing, clean, homey and really just right. My husband & I stayed here with our dog, and they took their morning walk through the trail behind all the cabins. The salt water hot tub after a day of hiking is soooo delightful. It was nice to have spices already stocked, and there was even a dog bowl for our girl. Sitting on the porch with a cup of coffee and my dog? 12/10

Perfect Cozy Cabin
This cabin was pristine, comfortable, and beautifully decorated. It had everything you would need for an enjoyable getaway including a fire pit, salt spa, and a great assortment of books and games. It’s close enough to trails and outdoor activities to keep your days full and there are some great dining options within 15-25 minutes away.
