About this property

Horn HideAway: Wooded Cabin Retreat, Fire Pit, Lake Fun, Cozy, Sleeps 8, Pets!

  • The Horn HideAway features 2 bedrooms plus a spacious loft area. Please note that the loft may not be ideal for young children, as it is accessed by a built-in ladder. The ladder is sturdy and secure, and the loft space can be closed off for privacy. We affectionately call this cozy retreat the “Birds’ Nest.” It includes a queen bed, full bed, and a dedicated workspace with an additional monitor, making it perfect for relaxing or remote work.

    The kitchen was recently updated featuring a new stove, refrigerator, and dishwasher. A breakfast bar with seating for two overlooks the dining area. The dining table has room for at least 4 more. Guests will also find plenty of small appliances including a coffee maker, crockpot, waffle maker, griddle, electric mixer, and more to make your stay comfortable and convenient.

    Outside, enjoy peaceful wooded surroundings with a fire pit and multiple outdoor seating areas. Marshmallow roasting sticks are available in the kitchen, and fire starter logs are kept in the utility room if you need a little help getting the fire going.

    Stay connected with high-speed internet, reliable cell service, and streaming TV options.

    The Horn HideAway has been lovingly built and enjoyed by our family for over 20 years. Tucked among the trees in a peaceful wooded setting, you’ll feel away from it all while being just 10–15 minutes from Gaylord and all it has to offer.
