Cute, cozy cabinet equipped with everything one needs. The view of the lake was amazing, great sunsets as well! Bed was comfortable & the shower was hot. Host was very friendly.Not the owners fault-The lake water was so low, we couldn’t use the boat lift/dock.Thanks Steve & Debbie

The host, Steve, was wonderful. Excellent communication, very responsive and informative. Wonderful blend of rustic and comfort with the cabin. You get a lakeside deck for coffee and water fowl watching.Host includes a good fishing boat and life jackets, as well as the heads up on entertaining places to go, (and not go).My only advise is to cabin goers over 60 that may have arthritis, or mobility issues such as hip replacements, or have had knee surgery. It is several steps to the water. The steps are nice and sturdy with sturdy hand rails and nice, steady dock.Thank you, Steve for a nice and relaxing week.Matt and Jackie
