My husband enjoyed the remoteness and viewing turkey and deer right from the cabin porch while having morning coffee. Our 10- and 11-year-old daughters loved the whole stay. The experience exceeded our expectations!

With the warmth of Barbara’s hospitality and unprecedented artistic details, Snug Hollow manages to wrap you up and hold you in a place thought lost to the modern world.

Wabi sabi is a Japanese term celebrating all the marks that time, weather and loving use leave behind. Their beauty is in their cracks, chips, dents and stains. Their beauty is in their history.
Snug Hollow is wabi sabi in the purest sense. It feels like home and its charm inspires and comforts the soul.
