The Magical Cabin on Back Creek
Magic is the word most people use when they visit this hidden gem. Built in 1939 as a fishing cabin by a gentleman who incorporated box cars as rafters and beams, dates still visible since removing the attic. By far the best place I've ever lived. I decided to share it with others who love to explore, who love listening to the voice of the creek or who come just to sit on the porch high above the creek with a spouse, friend, family, or alone. For the best sleep, open the bedroom window!

Cute and Comfy Cabin
Every season offers something special be it summer on the water, fall foliage, cozy winters by the electric fireplace, and blooming springs. Book your stay and experience why guests return year after year. Wake up to panoramic lake and mountain views in a peaceful, no-wake 60 acre cove, perfect for fishing, relaxing, reconnecting, and making memories. Inside, this cabin you’ll find a playful bear-themed décor that guests of all ages love—adding a fun, memorable touch to your stay.

Black Water Junction Cabin
Our cabin is built out of old wood and doors found on the farm. Because I am such a cold natured person, I installed heated floors and a heated towel bar in addition to the mini-split and electric fireplace! The cabin is surrounded by pastures that are the home to our cows, horses, goats, pot belly pig, and chickens. The highlight of a stay at BWJ Cabin would be to sit on the front porch in a rocking chair, day bed swing or hot tub looking out over the landscape and do nothing.
