Summary: All the hype is true. Both Randy and Janice are excellent host. The property though small is immaculate and super comfortable. I loved the abundance of windows and the wooded views all around. The property is super secluded with an assurance that the hosts live near by. Cell phone signal was strong once you get to the cabin. Please remember that navigation is inaccurate and will take you to a road that is not drivable but it is not host’s fault. They have clearly given the directions and they are super easy to follow. You do not need a special vehicle to get to the cabin and it is close to downtown as well. I highly recommend The Owl’s Nest for unwinding and relaxing for few days. Thank you Randy and Janice for providing such a cool place.

Conveniently located to restaurants and groceries, while feeling secluded. Check in and check out simple.

Summary: "We thoroughly enjoy staying in this cabin and are pleased to be returning for our second consecutive Thanksgiving. We appreciate the attention to detail demonstrated by the owner. The only drawback is the fire alarm's proximity to the oven, as it can be triggered by cooking activities. Nonetheless, it's a lovely little cabin."
