Prunella

FAQs

Why choose Prunella?
At Prunella, we believe a getaway should do more than offer a place to sleep — it should restore what everyday life takes away: space, calm, and connection. Our cabins and forest setting were designed to help you slow down, unplug, and breathe a little deeper.

From thoughtful layouts, natural light, hot tubs under the trees, and quiet walking paths, everything here is intentional. Nothing rushed, nothing crowded — just the simplicity of nature, with comfort built-in.

When you stay at Prunella, you’re not just booking accommodation — you’re giving yourself a pause, a reset, and a chance to reconnect with yourself and the outdoors.
How far apart are the cabins from one another?
The cabins are spaced to offer comfort and privacy. Cabins 1 and 2 are about 200 feet apart. Cabins 3 and 4 are roughly 100 feet apart. Cabins 5, 6, and 7 are approximately 75 feet apart. The surrounding forest and cabin orientation help ensure a peaceful and private stay.
How do we access the lake & docks?

General directions:
