We enjoyed our stay @The Boonie house very much. It was very clean, comfortable and well organized. Our family was there for the salmon run, so the house was nearby to all the perfect fishing spots. Wayne was very helpful and responded very quickly to any questions we had. The house had everything we needed and then some. All we had to bring was our clothes and food. There were plenty of beds for all 7 of us and next time maybe we can bring a couple more friends. Unfortunately we didnt get to enjoy the lighted outdoor firepit due to the rain but they provided several games movies and books we could enjoy instead. Thanks for making our mini vacay so enjoyable. We hope to stay here again next year. Your Ohio friends.

Overall the property was great. It was very clean, the beds were very comfortable, and there were plenty of them. The kitchen is very well stocked with pots, pans, bowls, storage containers, and dishes. The host communicated well, and the check-in and check-out procedures were clear and thorough. The appliances seemed relatively new, were very clean, and we were so happy to have a gas stove/oven (most rentals have electric). Two suggestions for improvement would be to provide WiFi and some additional cutlery. Cell signals are very spotty in the area, so a hotspot is not a good option. WiFi is nice to have just to be able to stay in touch with others, work on a laptop with decent connectivity, or use your own TV app on a smart TV. There's no need to go into the expense of providing TV apps with the WiFi, as most people can use their own accounts. Just the infrastructure to do so is all that is needed.

Brett, Thank you for taking great care of the cabin and your recommendations. WiFi is on our to do list and did not think about adding a smart TV which is a great idea. We'll inventory the cutlery and get it restocked as well. Many thanks Wayne

Lots of room and kitchen with lots of essentials.

We went skiing right after Christmas for a couple of days at Caberfae Peaks. The house has lots of room and the kitchen was well stocked with essentials. The mattresses could use an update and it would have been better if there was another 1/2 bath, but we enjoyed our stay.
