It was a nice cabin. The air conditioning is on the 1st floor only, which made the bedrooms very warm on the 2nd floor.

Thank you for your review. In the description of our property it states that the air conditioning is on the first floor. It was unfortunate that it was very hot and humid part of that week.

A clean, welcoming residence tucked in the trees. All our activities were within a 30 minute drive. Great infrastructure for biking in the area. Two minute walk to the water to watch the stars on a clear night. Well stocked with linens, pillows, extra blankets, and kitchen/cooking supplies. There's no fires allowed outside because of the tightly packed pine trees, but a gorgeous fireplace kept us warm on the cool nights. One caution- their is a spiral staircase to the bedrooms that may pose a problem to those with mobility issues.
