a memorable experience!

Despite the weather not being on our side, we had an amazing stay! We were lucky to catch a rare sight of bisons and got some great photos. Overall, everything was wonderful — a memorable experience!

Ok but..

We arrived after dark and it was rather difficult to find out where the cabin was. Once we found the “office” we were pointed in the right direction of where to find the cabin. Once settled my wife went to freshen up and wash her face. The entire cabin reeked from the smell of the water. There were mouse droppings in the sink as well.
