We enjoyed our stay at the cabin in the woods! It was close proximity to WEC with a beautiful, relaxing atmosphere to enjoy at the end of long days at the horse show!

The pictures don't do this cozy cabin justice. Perfect for my husband and I to get away for the weekend. Everything was clean and it was very well stocked. Plenty of blankets for a chilly weekend. High recommend. Owners were easy to communicate with mad very helpful when needed.

Very comfortable spot, tucked away in the woods, short walk to Cowan Lake beach. Equipped with a propane grill and a propane tabletop fire thing for roasting marshmallows. Would stay again!

The cottage was very quaint and definitely cozy. Far enough off of the road to not be bothered by traffic. Not that there was a lot of traffic. It was very peaceful, and the cottage was very clean and well maintained. We will stay here again

We have rented this cabin for several years. Love it! Very clean and each year more upgrades and improvements. Everything you need and a nice outdoor space. It’s a great getaway from the hustle of WEC.
