WPH Cabin

Our primitive cabin sets at the edge of pristine Little Pine Creek which is fed by the largest spring in Howell County. The sounds of bubbling water, birds singing, and an occasional UAC (Unidentified Animal Call) are all you'll hear in this utterly private setting in the woods. In case you're not sure of the meaning of "primitive", that means no electricity, no plumbing. A fire pit, propane burners, wood stove (wood provided), and outhouse complete your old-fashion camping adventure!

The Main Character

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Extended stay. Zero complaints. Soaker tub? Yep. Walk-in tile shower? Obviously. Fireplace? Hot when on fire. Big back deck? Bigger than mine. Quiet neighborhood, but downtown is still right there. Make it make sense. Would stay again. JK, I used to live here. Would absolutely gatekeep, but instead we’re renting it to you. More people pulled up than expected? Say less. Check out our whole-house listing called Big House Energy. It includes both levels and doubles your space.
