About this property

Squirrels Nest/Douglas: Cute, Dog Friendly Home with Hot Tub near Trails

**DOGS CONSIDERED**

Previously called DOUGLAS, this modest mountain cabin is nestled in the trees, backs to National Forest land, and is perfect for hiking, biking and snowmobiling and cross country skiing. This home features a large hot tub on the wrap-around deck, with trees helping protect some privacy from the road. Living room with sofabed, woodburning fireplace, DVD player, full kitchen, 1/2 bath and laundry, and dining area. One room has a Queen bed with flatscreen TV/DVD, the other with 2 Single beds, flatscreen TV/DVD and a full bath between. This is not a fancy cabin and one of our least expensive homes on our program. A great value compared to most hotels with 3 bedrooms in the area!

Perfect for family of 3-4 with a dog!

Bedroom 1 - Queen Bed
Bedroom 2 - 2 Twin Beds

Cozy Cabin

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location right at the beginning of a trail-head with a pretty massive hottub and plenty of firewood in the garage for the wood-buring fireplace.

Cozy cabin in the woods
Our family enjoyed a quick weekend getaway at the Squirrel’s Nest! The location right next to the forest trail was perfect for a walk in the woods with our pup, followed by a relaxing soak in the outdoor hot tub, and family games at the kitchen table. The kitchen was well-equipped and everything well organized and labeled. Quick drive to town yet tucked away next to the woods. We’ll be back!

Lovely stay!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful stay here - quiet location, right by a trail which was perfect for our dog. We had everything we needed in the house, the beds were really comfortable, and the hot tub was a great perk. Conveniently located just a short drive away from the lake and activities. Check in and check out were easy, and we got help super quickly when we couldn't open the padlock for the hot tub (user error). Would absolutely stay here again!

Cozy and felt like home
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a very comfortable home with just enough space for our group of 6. The wrap around deck and hot tub was an added bonus and the location of the cabin itself was peaceful. There's also a nice 3 mile trail that is right next to the cabin which we took full advantage of on our last day.
