My wife and I have been social distancing in our tiny studio since early March. So for my wife's birthday, she wanted to social distance in someplace with rooms. Luckily, we found Blake's place.
Here's how this incredible spot breaks down:
Communication, arrival, location: Blake is an insanely fast and very friendly communicator. We connected (to make sure they were still ok with renting out their space), got the ok, and headed to the spot. When the description describes it as a forest, it truly is. I won't spoil the magic of arrival for you but let's just say the location is both accessible but also secluded. It's not remote or in the middle of nowhere, it's just tucked into a forest full of gently-swaying trees.
Back to the review! We got to the destination a little before check-in and Blake was super accommodating, let us head to the spot a few minutes early (thanks Blake!). Upon arrival, getting in was a breeze. The exterior of the space was gorgeous, but I had no idea what I was walking into until I went inside...
The Space: I am no writer, I'm just a humble AirBNB reviewer. Thus, I cannot adequately explain to you what a breathtaking space this house is. The main living/dining/kitchen is full of glass windows, windows that look out into a forest of mature trees. It is a sight to behold. The space is decorated in what you might call "industrial rustic", copper, heavy leather accents, coupled with reclaimed wood everywhere. The wraparound deck was just the cherry on top. It truly is a marvelous space.
Other stay tidbits: There are two bedrooms, nicely decorated. The master was very comfortable, shower worked great, stocked well with all of the amenities you'd want. The kitchen (which is quite beautiful) worked great, we made all of our meals in the space and never left because it was just too dreamy. The couch and chair are insanely comfortable, so expect to take a snooze at some point. The internet oscillates between adequate and unusually slow, but if you're going to a cabin in the woods to sit on the internet I feel like you've got your priorities twisted. Go sit on the deck and listen to the birds! This is a secluded cabin, so if you turn off all the lights it gets DARK (which I love) but just something to be aware of. Heat/air work fantastically.
Anyway, I've gushed on enough. I highly recommend this spot...you can bet we'll be back!
