Whispering Pines

Come and enjoy the serenity of nature at this charming weekend retreat nestled in a forested storybook setting! Upon entering the great room, you'll immediately notice the two-story wood-burning fireplace crafted from native stone. Build a fire, kick back on the leather couch with your favorite shows streaming on the TV, and enjoy the fire's warm glow through the cabin. Outfitted with stainless steel appliances and custom-built cabinets, the kitchen brings both functionality and rustic charm. Time for bed? The main level features a suite with King bed, SmartTV with streaming, and a private full bath complete with washer & dryer. Head upstairs to find a loft area with XL-twin bed and a reading nook, as well as a full bath and a Queen bedroom with SmartTV with streaming. Step outside where the covered front porch extends into a spacious deck, featuring a luxurious hot tub where you can unwind in the beauty of the surroundings. Gather around the fire pit under the starlit sky to tell stories and make memories together.
