Wood woes
Good, with the exception of the fireplace policy guests should be able to have a fire the night before they leave and the morning of their departure, buy a metal bucket instead of taking away one of the cabin”s virtues for guests,

Clean and please fix
Loved this cabin. Very clean and great location love that it was dog friendly. Seeing wild life was a plus. I will say there is some room for improvement. The front door the screen door slams very hard and loudly (shock is worn out) the front door itself doesnt close all the way there is a gap for the cold draft. Front door didnt make for a safe feeling while staying here. Another unsafe feeling was the fact you could see right through the doors in the kitchen and one of the blinds in the living room closest to the TV didn't close. When staying out of town state or in general feeling safe is my family and I biggest need and this wasnt that. But over all the cabin was what we were looking for.
