About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Surrounded by Farm Animals, Forests and Gorgeous views! The Log Cabin sits Lakefront on an 8 acre private LAKE w/ ISLAND on 142 Wooded Acres with 5+ miles of hiking/biking trails. Our small farm has Goats, Chickens, Ducks, Rabbits and sheep for you to visit and feed! Only us (next door) and our Tugboat and Airstream listings (opposite side of Lake) have access to the lake and property. The cabin has been newly remodeled with a rustic, shabby chic appeal. Many hand made items using salvaged materiel including the barn table, bathroom vanity, and beautiful chandelier created with a salvaged metal roof of an old fallen home on the property.
Short distance from the Farm Store with Games like Skeeball and Air Hockey, Local Meats, Treats, Ice Cream Cookie Sandwiches, and Bait. Open Daily to all guests.
The space
*Please Read Entire Listing* The small private Lake is breathtaking, great for swimming, fishing, and boating. Enjoy a fire pit on the Mossy Island, accessible by bridge or boat. Explore miles of wooded trails and several natural streams with sandy beaches. 1/2 mile paved driveway boarders horse and cattle farm and is great for bikes, skateboards, scooters, rollerblades, etc.
The Covered boat dock is all yours along with use of the kayak, stand up paddle board, rowboat, and paddleboat for adventures on the Lake! To the right of the boat house is a nice beach area where kids can play and gradually get their toes wet! Your personal fire pit with comfy Adirondack chairs sits between the cabins deck and the boat dock. Being so secluded has its benefits with no light pollution for a memorable stargazing experience.
Fishing on the stocked Lake is like nowhere else! 7lb+ Bass are not uncommon and Sunfish and Crappie are easy catching for the kiddos, you will be telling fish tales for years! We would like everyone to catch and release, so fishing will remain incredible here!
Wifi is available and usually fast enough to stream Netflix on the Family Room TV using the Roku. Although our internet is quite good for the Country, we cannot guarantee consistent access or speeds. We also provide a DVD/BluRay player and try to keep movies available for your use.
The main level bedroom has a memory foam/gel top queen bed with views of the forest. The Loft bedroom, which is open to the living area, has a luxurious king plush mattress, 2 hammock chairs, and the best views of the lake! PLEASE NOTE, the loft is only accessible by library ladder, there is a gate that can be installed at the top. If it’s a full house there is a queen pull out memory foam mattress in the family room with a flat screen TV and 2 reclining chairs. The cabin is fully outfitted with linens and towels for showers, please bring your own Lake/beach towels.
The fully equipped kitchen has everything needed should you choose to cook at home or, take a short 10-minute drive to town with many excellent restaurants. The kitchen is stocked with coffee, common spices, olive oil, cooking spray, and condiments (ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise) that you might need. There is plenty of room for a feast at the farm style dining table, which seats 6 comfortably.
The cabin has a trex deck facing the lake, a fantastic place to enjoy your morning coffee or your evening cocktail. There is a gate that can close off the deck for pets and children. There is plenty of seating on the deck with a table for dining and a Gas Grill. You may even treat yourself to a seasonal outdoor shower, serenaded by sweet songbirds. Speaking of birds it is a birdwatchers paradise!
You will most likely meet our golden-doodle Mabel. She is extremely friendly but please do let us know if she's a bother. She enjoys meeting new guests and their furry companions and is wonderful with kids!
FAQ: Are fishing poles provided? Yes, we try keep at least 1 fishing pole at the boat dock in case you forget your own! We are also happy to share our personal tackle box and extra poles, just ask.
Bait: We find it best to use worms or artificial lures like rubber worms.
Fish: We have Bass, Crappie, and Sunfish at Lake Glen Haven.
Guest access The Cabin, boat dock, fire pit, and yard around the cabin is all yours. Shared use of the entire 142 Acres, Trails, Private Lake, and Island. Although there is the privacy fence, please feel free to walk behind our home and travel the path to get the island. Our home sits about 200 ft away should you need anything, but guests privacy is our top priority!
