We enjoyed the cabin and it was as described. We were out sightseeing during the day and only at the cabin at night so it met our needs. We had a few times the Wi-Fi in the cabin loss connection to our devices. We try later and everything worked fine.
The age and history of the cabin, the natural "dripping springs", the location to wedding venues, and the homemade bread breakfasts.
