GM Anniversary Trip!
My husband and I stayed here for our anniversary and loved our stay! It felt like we were glamping with the beautiful aesthetic but no running water. The electricity and beautiful design made it a very comfortable stay! We would absolutely return and recommend!

Its somewhere I could definitely live. Small, cozy, rustic but modern at the same time. Would need running water, however. But for a weekend get-a-way... it was wonderful! Would def recommend.

Lovely experience!
My boyfriend and I traveled up north for a weekend getaway and this was the perfect cabin for it! It was close to lots of attractions and even though there was a cabin nearby, we had so much privacy with all the trees. The cabin was very clean and welcoming, we loved the sauna! The kitchen was so cute, I loved all the vintage and antique details added inside. I’m not much of a no plumbing person but the outhouse didn’t make it feel like you were in a outhouse at all. I will absolutely stay at another Patagonia cabin again, excellent communication and a friendly inviting experience overall ☺️
