Tranquility and Style

The beautiful property is secluded enough for relaxation, yet only 10 minutes from the grocer. The cabin is very well put together using what appears to be reclaimed/refurbished materials from the period. It has all the moderns of today with the feel of 'Grampa's Cabin'.We hope to make this our regular accommodations while visiting nearby family. Thanks for the memories!

Peaceful Tranquility

Sammy's cabin was such a cozy and comfortable spot to spend the weekend. The property is well kept and meticulously restored. I've never slept as peacefully. We will definately come again.

It was our sister's yearly Christmas get away. We really enjoyed the cabin being decorated for Christmas. It was a beautiful close by Carrollton and we are looking forward to returning.
