Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Loved the location, furniture and beds were great. Got to see a bear try to get in one trash bin, and successfully get into another. Host responded quickly to get the mess cleaned up! Bad for them, we enjoyed watching
Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025
