Great Cabin just outside of town

Great cabin - great location just outside of town - close enough to enjoy but far enough away to relax by the camp fire at night.. Love the location on the tunnel of trees. Just what we were looking for to get away with the family. The fireworks over the harbor on the 4th were wonderful
