Stargazer's Cabin

Stargazer's Cabin
9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (8)
"We cannot fault this peaceful location nor the delightful cabin we stayed in. David the owner was super friendly and helpful in directing us to various places to visit. There was no Wi-Fi but cell coverage was adequate, and we had everything we needed as far as facilities go. Clean, warm, comfy bed, loads of hot water, very private... we'd go again!"
