Rental Cabins

#860 is the second in a pair of matching rental cabins.

We’ve renamed our Cabins and a lot of you are probably wondering, “what in the world do these names mean?” We wanted to name our cabins something that would pay homage to the logging industry of old and pay tribute to our local equestrian community, thus a cabins named for both industries. We had a lot of fun with this and we hope you enjoy the names!

Definitions for our cabin names:
