A+ Memories in the A-Frame
This was a very charming weekend so close to the lake! We had a lovely time and Bruce was so accommodating. They were incredibly welcoming, giving us a tour of the property which has many exciting amenities and projects including a kitchenette next to the restroom and a gift shop that his late sister invested her creative vision into. Our A-Frame stay was very nice and we loved falling asleep to the sounds of frogs by the pond. Bruce’s two sons were also around and helped set up a fire for us after we took his recommendations for local activities- a very sweet gesture to come back to. It was worth the trip from Pittsburgh and then some!

It was quiet and very nice. Only one other site occupied so had the place practically to our selves. Kitchen area is nice; we did not need it but is nicely setup. We came for the eclipse and skies cleared just in time!

Lovely glamping experience!
We had a great stay at the A-frame cabin! The land is really beautiful. We loved looking out over the pond from the porch in the evening and listening to all the nature sounds. The kitchen and bathroom facilities were way better than I expected. The kitchen has everything you’d need and more. Bruce was so thoughtful in making sure we had everything we’d need to be comfortable including offering us air mattresses and lanterns and showing us around so we know where everything is. Don’t expect the cabin to be fully furnished, but this is Hipcamp after all! This is a ‘glamping’ experience with a roof over your head and the luxury of having a kitchen, toilets, and showers available to you. I only wish we had more time to hang out and explore the trails around the land. The location is also great—quiet and secluded while still being a quick and easy drive to Westfield/Lake Erie. It was only us and another couple on the entire property even with the influx of eclipse visitors. Would absolutely recommend!

More Details Please
The host was very kind and communicative and the land is beautiful, but the stay here was rough. I feel the listing should have more details up front - specifically what the A-frame does and doesn’t have. There are no photos of the a frame building’s interior- it is just a roof over a wood floor and wind gets into it. No bed or electricity (fine, but I wish I would have known). Overall the property felt very occupied and not prepared for guests. I had to fish a sponge out of the dirty toilet out upon arrival in order to use it, the stove in the kitchen building wouldn’t light due to being filled with bugs and debris, dirty dishes in the sink, trash and personal stuff everywhere, et cetera. I felt the price was way too high for what you get staying here and wish I would have booked elsewhere.
