This was a very cozy cabin. The showers get nice and hot. The beds were a little more firm than I prefer but still slept fine. The host was very nice. Cabin was clean. Check in and check out was very easy.

This cabin was perfect! It was so clean and had so many extras, you truly never needed to leave. The backyard is fenced which is so nice for the fur babies. The back porch is amazing with an outside tv, table, plenty of seating and not to mention a pingpong table and corn hole boards. There are 3 different types of grills (gas, blackstone and charcoal). There is plenty of wood provided for the firepit. The beds are extremely comfortable. I would stay here again for sure. Chris and Amanda were very communicative and made the whole process super easy!
