This was a nice little place to stay. It was super affordable and the hosts were super fast at replying which really made me feel valued. The beds were extremely comfortable and there were plenty of beds for everyone. And a bathroom for each room. They provided pillows and linens and towels for us to use. There was also shampoo, conditioner and body wash. The water was nice and hot for showers. There wasn't a lot of indoor gathering space or any place to eat in the cabin, but they provided wood and a pavilion for campfire cooking and outdoor gathering. It was beautiful, and peaceful. Located deep in the woods and no city lights or traffic. Even when there were other guests on the campgrounds, it was peaceful. It was warm in the cabin (when it was warm outside). they had a lock on the a/c unit so we were not able to control the temperature on the thermostat. There was weak wifi signal and even weaker cell phone signal. At first I thought this was terribly inconvenient but it actually turned out to be a blessing in disguise.Overall this was great value for the price I paid. I would most definitely do this again.
