We have made staying at Cabin in the Glen in early December a family tradition over the past several years. It has become a welcome retreat from the hustle and bustle of the holidays that our young children enjoy as much as we do. We all look forward to a family weekend playing games, roasting marshmallows, hiking in the wintery woods, and just being together without interruption.
