The cabin is even better in person we loved it and it was very cozy and comfortable. Had a small issue with receiving the door code but after contacting the owner it was resolved within minutes. Cabin was very clean upon arrival but there was a random bunched up pair of ripped jeans on the counter beside the stove. Other than that there were no issues we even got to see some deer and geese in the back yard along the little stream while standing on the back porch area. Overall the stay was perfect it was close to a few grocery stores and such too so we didn’t have to drive far if we wanted to go pick something up to eat. Would absolutely rent this cabin out again in the future

Very clean and spacious, comfortable beds, plenty of towels and linens. Nice screened in patio area. Biggest drawbacks: it is right off a busy road so not very peaceful to sit outside with traffic noises, sirens, and construction noises. It is also part of a group of cabins right next to each other so not very private either. The kitchen equipment was lacking as well (no knives other than dining knives) and there is no indoor sitting area, only a dining room table. In the evenings our options were to sit at the dining room table or sit in the bed. Additionally the primary bedroom needs some wall mounted bedside storage for phones/lamps etc because the lighting setup was strange (no bedside lighting and only a ceiling fan with very harsh overhead light). I also found it to be overpriced for what it was, given my frequent experience renting cabins in this area.
