Perfect Weekend Getaway

This property was cozy and peaceful. We loved the hot tub, the fire, and how close we were to the National Park. The only issue we had was for someone of bigger size, the shower was a bit small, but still manageable. We would stay here again for sure if given the opportunity.

Perfect Cabin

The Knotty Shack was the perfect cabin experience. Cozy and Cute! The cabin was clean and had all the amenities we needed to be comfortable. We loved the decor!

Sweetest little cabin

This was such a sweet little cabin to celebrate my husband’s birthday at. All the little attention to details with the bear decor and cabin features were adorable. Loved the moon light and the bed was super comfy. Hot tub was a nice touch to relax outside and the snacks were great too. Everything was nice and clean.
