The Cardinal House is amazing! My three teenage sons enjoyed having the Poole table and we all enjoyed the hot tub! The house is stocked and we enjoyed having flannel throws in the den. Very pet friendly - including gates on the deck! The view is delightful. We will definitely be back!

Overall, a nice place to stay. It was extremely cold while we were there, and the heat system had a hard time keeping up, but the fireplace helped out. We enjoyed our stay and will possibly look into coming back in the future
