Cute Cabin

This was a cute cabin. Loved all the mini-split A/C in every room, especially with the tremendous heat wave we were having. Tracy was very friendly & attentive

Super clean and well stocked

This cabin was extremely clean and had everything we needed except for bringing our own towels, but we were told in advance to do that. We loved having the fire pit and the back patio is great. Very easy access to Garner State Park. The only downside was that the river bed is dry and this was not mentioned in the description. We were a little bummed about that.
