True cabin feel

This old cabin was clean, cozy and perfect for our family! Bedroom and very large bathroom downstairs along with a living room with fireplace, a kitchen, and a dining room. Laundry as well. Upstairs is another bedroom with a queen bed, this is just off the loft area which has a full bed and the cutest nook with a small bed perfect for our youngest child. Far enough off the road that you don’t even know it’s there. We will definitely stay again.

Great stay at Horse Creek Ranch and the historic log cabin. Super clean, with most anything you could want or need in a cabin rental. We weren’t able to use any more than 2 burners on the stove, but otherwise managed quite well! We loved the quiet and the opportunity to unplug and relax! Thanks for a wonderful stay!
