Modern and rustic in a beautiful secluded setting

The greatest amenity this cabin offers is our neighbor — the national forest. If you're looking to get out into nature but prefer not to rough it, you're in luck. The cabin is situated on a ridge overlooking the gorgeous mountain scenery and an expanse of pristine, unspoiled forest for you to explore, but without giving up all the comforts and conveniences of modern life. Here you can enjoy the best of both worlds!
