We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Reel Tuck cabin. Sitting in the swinging seat watching the tubers and kayakers go by was relaxing. The cabin was clean and well-laid out. The only drawback was the floor, which crackled during and after we walked on it. We hope to come back, and a special shoutout to Sundog Rentals: they went above and beyond to accommodate our requests and provide information a timely manner.

This is a cute place, with a bright happy interior. The host had games to play which was very thoughtful & Newly decorated with nice furniture. Good water pressure, heating adequate although window heating unit in three rooms. We had to purchase a flat bottom coffee pot and left it for our host to use. No big deal. The hand soap wasn’t left with enough for use and the home did have a hint of cat pee smell. We loved it other than those two things and for that reason we give 4 stars.
