White Tail
The best sunset views on the pond — a stone-step walkway to your private fire pit on the water, a hot tub patio, and a charming front porch swing. Dogs welcome.
About this cabin
White Tail is positioned on the pond to capture the best view of the sunset — a rare thing at Woodland Cabins. A beautiful stone-step walkway leads guests from their hot tub patio down to a unique wood deck with a private fire pit sitting right on the water's edge. Whether you're feeding turtles at dusk or watching the last light fade over the pond, every moment here feels unhurried.
The studio layout features a king-size bed, a cozy family room with a fireplace, and a fully equipped kitchen. Generous multi-level decks, a distinctive hot tub and fire-pit enclave, and a front porch swing give you plenty of places to settle in and stay a while.
The surrounding 44 acres of wooded fields are alive with wildlife — deer, wild turkey, red foxes, pileated woodpeckers, songbirds, and migrating waterfowl are regular visitors. For the fortunate observer, catching a glimpse of "Fraidy," the resident bobcat, adds an extra touch of wilderness charm. Dogs are welcome to join in the adventure.
