The Hideaway
Treat the family to that long-awaited vacation and get away from it all at this beautiful lodging offering all of the comforts of home! With a rustic exterior, this home feels like a classic cabin yet the interior is bright and contemporary, making for a comfortable and secluded stay. Enjoy crisp mornings and warm evenings on the spacious deck with your favorite drink in hand and simply soak up the stunning views. When everyone returns from their own kind of adventures, the wood stove, flatscreen TV, and a home-cooked meal prepared in the full kitchen will be the perfect recipe for settling down. Not to mention, breaking out a few board games in one of the two living areas (or the basement retreat that includes two bedrooms, one bathroom, and a kitchenette!) will let everyone indulge in a bit of friendly competition.
