The host company was very welcoming and made everything easy. This cabin is tremendous with multiple surprises. We have 2 young grandchildren and since there is only 1 staircase it made it easier for us to have them in one area. Being beside the river was amazing, even in early January as we were. We were able to walk to town easily, and across to the kids fun factory.
